A documentary about fatherhood and what is really masculine and feminine.

Freddy McConnell, 32, is a gay trans man. He works as a journalist for The Guardian. A few years ago, he decided he wanted to have children. Deciding to carry his own baby became a practical decision for him, since he had not made the whole change to become a man, but nothing could prepare him for the reality of pregnancy. For three years we get to be a part of his journey from the time he makes the decision to become a parent until birth.
