I think I look the same age, but I color my hair and am pretty religious about the anti-aging stuff; so its all a facade...hee hee </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-547657 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 21:07:27 +0000 Mrs. Bee 547657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hell to the yes. esp after two kids. i look at pictures of myself just before having charlie, and i looked so young! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-547635 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 20:53:29 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 547635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know if it makes me look younger, but people don't believe that I'm 29 with two kids. haha MILF i guess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-547610 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 20:44:59 +0000 stargal 547610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope so!

I was always mistaken for a teenager before I got pregnant and definitely haven't had that happen... Oh except once. Cobi was 3 weeks old and someone asked me how old I was because I looked like a young mom, I was 22 at the time and the guy was SOO relieved and then started ranting about how too many teens get pregnant these days and thanked me for being married and older to have my first kid hahaha. it was funny. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-547281 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 14:56:14 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 547281@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope so!<br /> I look younger than I am. :(</p> <p>It has definitely made me frumpier. Boo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-547191 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 13:35:19 +0000 Mrs. Fox 547191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely look older and more tired since my son was born. Honestly, I think it has to do with how much weight I've lost, which includes all the baby weight plus six pounds. And with all the breast feeding, I struggle to maintain my weight. I know we're all supposed to be thin but I've lost enough weight that I just look haggard. Add in that I've slept for six hours straight twice since of November 2011 and I know I'm not looking my best. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-547060 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 12:18:39 +0000 lomom 547060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll be 22 when LO is born and people think I'm 17/18 so, I'll gladly welcome looking more my age lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-547013 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 11:47:21 +0000 Mrs. Blue 547013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think pregnancy has made me look older, especially around the eyes, so I'm pretty sure that having babies actually here will definitely make me "look my age." Sad times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-546737 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 09:39:58 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 546737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! It's sad :( . I think it's from being more tired, plus having less time to spend on myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-546722 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 09:24:07 +0000 Dandelion 546722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, since I had my son almost 6 years ago, yes...but I still look young. I don't get taken seriously by a lot of people, like realtors and stuff. If dh is around me, then people start to shape up, lol. I finally found a realtor who takes me seriously, and she's happy to have the job, lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-546716 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 09:20:21 +0000 NerdBee 546716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sadly, yes. Looking back at photos of myself pre-baby, I definitely look older now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-546701 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 08:51:56 +0000 winniebee 546701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. I don't know what it is, but I think I do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-546699 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 08:49:35 +0000 rachiecakes 546699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think so. But I got carded at Christmas trying to get a lottery ticket, I didn't have my license on me, so they wouldn't sell it to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-546693 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 08:41:17 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 546693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>People generally used to think I was 10-12 years younger than I am. People still estimate me younger, but now more like 5 years. Sniff! It could be the grey hairs I'm finally starting to get. I guess it's ok. It's been a good run :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-546682 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 08:26:44 +0000 Maysprout 546682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes. I think it depends when I have dark circles under my eyes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-546679 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 08:19:27 +0000 808love 546679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I look older but I got carded on the first day I put LO in preschool, so I felt young again!! Briefly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-545214 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 18:38:50 +0000 Cherrybee 545214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: Are you going to share the name of this best concealer ever, for rapidly aging bees like myself?? :-)</p> <p>I really hope this doesn't happen to me. I've already noticed how much older I look of late. I guess it's because I am so much older these days!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-545211 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 18:36:05 +0000 brownie 545211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LOL. I only get carded when I have my little man with me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-545209 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 18:33:20 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 545209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No...I wish. I am 24 &amp; people have always said I look like im 20-22ish.<br /> I get "teen mom" looks all the time (judgey mean ones).<br /> I love when DH goes out with me &amp; the baby for that reason.<br /> Oh &amp; I bought the best concealer ever for days I look haggered, because if someone told me I looked tired? I cry. Crrryyyy </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-545197 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 18:27:49 +0000 Mrs. Train 545197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep way older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-545194 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 18:27:10 +0000 autumnlove 545194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, older and tired! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-545193 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 18:26:20 +0000 Tidybee 545193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>not sure about older...but definitely more tired! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-look-older-since-having-you-lo#post-545190 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 18:25:37 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 545190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't think I did, but I guess I do. Prior to DD, I always got carded and I was told I look about 24 or 25 (I'm 30). Now, everyone comments on how tired I always look (gee thanks), and I never get carded anymore. Waaaaaaah :-)</p> <p>What about you? </p>
