So here's how it works: 10 years in the future, the male pregnancy movement is in full swing, with medical professionals around the world vying to show the world that with the help of medical technology men are equally fit to bear children as women. As a sort of mpreg olympics, The Competition was created for physicians to showcase their skills and medical advances, with expectant fathers each competing to give birth to the largest child possible.
The rules to The Competition are as follows:
-Each carrying father must be a biological parent of their child. They may be inseminated with any donor's sperm, and any genetic modifications deemed appropriate may be done to the donor's sperm but not the carrying father's egg (medical advances had allowed men to convert sperm into an egg which may be fertilized).
-Each competitor may gestate for a maximum of 40 weeks, or 280 days, as measured from the time of insemination. At the 40 week mark each competitor must be induced if they have not already entered into labor.
-Hormones and supplements to prevent pre-term labor and encourage fetal growth are allowed, but must be discontinued once the carrying father goes into labor.
-Each competitor is to gestate one fetus at a time. Multiples are discouraged as the spirit of the Competition is to birth the largest possible child.
-Birth may be by whichever orifice the competitor my choose but must be natural and without pain medication. Any surgical modification during labor (c section, episiomoty, incision, etc) will result in immediate disqualification from the Competition.
-Finally, each live born child must be "proved." The carrying father must support and raise the child for 6 months following birth to demonstrate both that the child is without any immediate medical complications from the pregnancy or birth and that the carrying father is able to provide for his child. After 6 months should the child be found to be of sound health the competitor who delivered the largest child as measured by birth weight will be chosen victorious. Let the games begin!

A handful of competitors have been housed together at an old health retreat on the shore of a lake in the Rocky Mountains. This retreat has been outfitted with the latest accoutrements of any modern maternity ward as well as a cafeteria with 24 hour on-call chefs, spa, and individual bedrooms for each competitor complete with anything each competitor may need once their child is born for the "proving." The competitors live together much like college students with common bathrooms and common areas, and are free to wander the retreat grounds or even swim in the lake but may not leave the retreat at any time once they've entered the Competition as to avoid misconduct. Furthermore, all competitors are monitored constantly by staff and surveillance cameras to make sure they're healthy and not violating any of the rules.

Alex is one of the youngest competitors. At 22 he decided to forgo graduating from college to compete, mainly to rebel against his hard driving family from the east coast that had always pressured him to take over the family pharmacy instead of doing what he really wanted, which was to raise a family. He also was the only competitor for which this was his first pregnancy: a fact that had almost prevented him from being allowed to compete by the judges and had caused him great difficulty in finding at least one physician to sponsor him.
Alex is 6'5" with a skinny, lanky build, remnants of which still showed despite being with child. His pelvis had been broken and surgically expanded prior to his pregnancy, giving his otherwise fence rail physique rather feminine curves. He had grown out his red hair until it was almost long enough to tie back in a ponytail if he wanted and his blue eyes and occasional freckles had darkened as a result of the hormones that came with being pregnant. He waddled, plodding down the hall heavily using the handrail for support to the bathroom for a shower.....
Take it away guys and gals! Feel free to play as a competitor, retreat staff, midwives/doctors, or really anything you'd please. Hetero+Homo action by anyone involved are both welcomed, however as an FYI Alex is hetero although the hormones have definitely made him a little more willing to try new things, especially as his 40 week mark draws closer and closer.
(Also, if anyone would want to work on this RP in private feel free to pm me!)
