First of all, congrats on the healthy baby! And also congrats on your strength, dayum.

A lot of TiFs have very strong internalized misogyny and, though they always deny it, it plays a large role in their transition and it's why they say "oh I always knew I wasn't like other girls!". When they transition they think letting that misogyny hang out makes them all the more manly, and they probably also bond with shitty bio men that way. TiFs are also generally completely uninterested in feminism or supporting women in general, they really try so hard to be "tough" bros.

Thanks! The irony is, they will find very little support from men when it comes down to it, and it will still be feminism that gives any damn for them in the end.
