In what is understood to be a world-first, a mother and father both changed sex before the birth of their first child.

In the confusing case, the boy's mother Joyce was seven months pregnant before realising she was expecting, because she had been taking testosterone to try to become a man.

Her husband Jason had a sex change to assume a female appearance after undergoing surgery in Thailand – six months before the baby was born.

The Pennsylvanian couple, who met online, claim to be the world's first transgender parents to have a child without undergoing fertility treatment.
