Do you get offended when...

Question

People say your newborn looks like your SO? I sometimes get upset when people say she does especially because I truly think she looks like me. Then I feel bad.

Answer

We haven't had our baby yet - 39 weeks! But, I wouldn't be offended. My husband is cute, (in my opinion)... And we are having a boy, so he should look like his dad!

Answer

I've read that newborns usually look like their father because of biology--apparently it's the caveman's version of a paternity test. 
It's definitely not 100% though, when my niece was born she was ALL her mom, all she got from her dad was her hair color.

Answer

My husband and I look a lot alike (could pass for siblings some say) but I hope my little girl looks more like him. I hate my nose and I look mad all the time, even my smile isn't very convincing. He just has such a likable face, he resembles his mother and she's quite pretty, so I'd be fine with that.

Answer

Not at all, it annoys me I spent 9 months cooking him and he decided he'd take my nose and teeth and nothing else but he's still my gorgeous, handsome little man.

Answer

My DD looks a LOT like me. Strong mother-daughter resemblance runs in the family.

So we got a lot of comments. Still do and she's 6 now. Then there was my MIL who was so desperate for "the baby" to be connected to her that she'd over analyze every little feature or expression.

I never really found it offensive (MIL or anyone else), just very annoying.

I generally just respond with "She looks like herself." That shuts it down quickly.

Answer

My hubby is sexy so no it doest bother me at all😁

Answer

Our 2 boys came out looking more like me, and as they grew older (now 6 and 2) they look a lot more like my husband than me.... Our baby girl came out looking more like my husband, I guess we'll see who she grows to look like (she just turned a month old)..

Answer

I want my baby to look like their daddy so he has something and I probably won't like it if someone says he/she looks like me 😂

Answer

Your baby will look like the father, no matter the gender. The reason for this to help the father bond faster with his baby. It's the amazing thing about nature and to help parents form stronger bonds with their children

Answer

I've been the image of my dad my whole life. I've got my mums eye colour but dads shape, his cheekbones, his teeth, hair etc 
My brother is even more like my dad 
My son is the double of my dad's brother even I don't have a look in and his own dad might as well have not been there lol

That being said, out of 27 cousins, 3 of them don't look like my dad's family. We're all just clones of granny and granda 😂 
I was number 14 so mum knew fine well what she was getting into. She likes to think my brother is like her but she's honestly just kidding herself on
