And people say me and DH look alike! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374644 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 10:34:53 +0000 pelikila 374644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son is a clone of my husband.</p> <p>I look more like my mom but my older sister is more like my dad.</p> <p>I've hear (old wives tale I would imagine) that first kids typically look more like the dad to help males "bond" with their kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374641 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 10:33:11 +0000 Bao 374641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've always heard I look like my mom, and that DD looks like me and she looks like my mom...must be true :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374618 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 10:24:10 +0000 Honeybee 374618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I look just like my mom (all my sisters do), and DH is the spitting image of his dad. It's crazy how much they look alike (and how similar their mannerisms are; they even walk the same!).</p> <p>I think my kids are a pretty combination of DH and I. I would say DD is prettier than me, actually. She has finer features. I think DS looks more like me, but he's built just like DH , so it's a toss up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374611 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 10:22:09 +0000 DillonLion 374611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A couple of friends of ours had a daughter about 5 months ago and she looks JUST like her daddy. It is so adorable! I hope our DD comes out looking like her dad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374275 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 06:55:17 +0000 loveisstrange 374275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>C is starting to look a little more like me but she is a little carbon copy of her daddy! She's going to have my hair and possibly my eye color though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374268 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 06:50:28 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 374268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I look a lot like my dad. I'm expecting my kids to look like my husband because he looks just like his dad. There are some strong genes there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374267 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 06:46:28 +0000 MusicaV 374267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everybody in DH's family says DS looks exactly like him when he was a baby. We see a mix of both of us.<br /> @Crumbs: I agree about the mixed race and eyes. I think that's a big reason why DH's family thinks DS looks like him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374188 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 04:09:45 +0000 mynoahbear 374188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD looks exactly like her dad. She looks nothing like me. When we were living in Japan, everyone told us it's good for girls to look like their fathers and boys to look like their mothers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374185 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 04:06:24 +0000 Mrs.B 374185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is my mini me :) He looks just like me when I was little. DD looks just like DH. They have the same nose, ears, head shape, etc. She is the spitting image of him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374182 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 03:46:19 +0000 sorrycharlie 374182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I look like a mix of my parents, and I think LO is too. Sometimes she will make a face and it's my husband - so eerie. Other times she's a mini me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374153 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 01:53:27 +0000 lovehoneybee 374153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everyone, myself included, think DS is the spitting image of DH. I don't see me in there at all! There's no doubt he's a McK. MIL likes to joke that she's only sure he's mine because she watched him come out! The only one who doesn't think he looks just like DH is DH himself!</p> <p>I hope he eventually gets something from me though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374143 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 01:29:45 +0000 photojane 374143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure about our lo yet (the u/s tech did say she has my features), but its totally wrong for the hubs and I. Though I have my dad's eye color and huge head, I get told I look just like my mom by everyone who sees us. Hubs is his dad's little clone, which is too weird... I guess I know what to expect in 30 years! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374140 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 01:22:09 +0000 Boogs 374140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every single person who knows us all say that my boy looks just like his dad. DS got my eye shape and that seems to be about it so far, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374133 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 01:04:13 +0000 SugarplumsMom 374133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>BTW, I look like my dad (like his sisters) and my brother looks like my mom. The weird thing is my bro and I look a lot like each other. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374130 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 01:01:45 +0000 SugarplumsMom 374130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was fully expecting DD to look like her pappa. But she looks a lot like me when I was younger! People have even told us that she doesn't get any of her looks from dad! I kind of makes me feel bad, but DH is completely fine with it. What they don't see is she has his chin, hands, and a identical copy of his feet! </p> <p>We think it's all about the eyes. If you're mixed raced and your baby has more Asian eyes, it kind of dominates the whole appearance. With that said, I'm glad she got my eyes! I'm crossing my fingers she has my vision too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374128 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 00:47:27 +0000 Mrs Checkers 374128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH looks like his dad, and DD looks like DH </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374127 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 00:40:04 +0000 HLK208 374127@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD looks so much like me while DS looks like DH! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374104 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 23:46:41 +0000 shopaholic 374104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmmm.. I'm with @cocobee on this one! Would be scared for DD to have her daddy's eyebrows! Yikes!<br /> I look like my dad I've been told my whole life. Sister looks more like my mom's side of the family and brother looks more like dad's side of the family. DH &amp; SIL both take after his mom's side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374094 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 23:29:28 +0000 twinmama 374094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. Our girl looks like her dad, or at least his side of the family, and our boy looks just like me as a baby. Even their skin color...hubs is darker than me. But they both have his almond eyes :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-374074 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 23:06:58 +0000 aprk 374074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely true in my family </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-373946 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 22:00:56 +0000 sandy 373946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My brother and i both look like my dad </p> <p>DD looks like my husband...I really hope any future DSs don't look like me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-373939 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 21:58:32 +0000 Mrs. Bee 373939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i look like my mom and my brother looks like my dad no doubt. but everyone tells me olive looks like mr bee. charlie they say looks like mr bee 50% looks like me 50%. i dunno.... i'm not good at seeing things like that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-373934 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 21:57:01 +0000 lawbee11 373934@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I look a lot like my mom did when she was my age. My brother also looks more like my mom. DH definitely looks more like his mom. I think it can go either way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-373905 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 21:48:48 +0000 MsMini 373905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So far my DS is a spitting image of my DH (with a couple throw-bac features mixed in from both sides) and I have been told he doesn't look like me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-373892 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 21:46:00 +0000 PrincessBaby 373892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope DD gets A LOT of DH's facial features...His eyes and 10 foot long eyelashes, and his killer dimples and smile. But he has a boy nose, so I can't picture it on a girl. So hopefully there's some truth to that for us! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-373890 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 21:45:15 +0000 luckypenny 373890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD looks EXACTLY like her papa!

She is tall like DH though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-373870 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 21:37:40 +0000 MrsHotDog 373870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter is a spitting image of me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sons-look-like-mamas-daughters-look-like-dads#post-373851 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 21:33:48 +0000 Alivoo01 373851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was born and through my infancy, there was no doubt I was my dad's daughter. Thankfully, I've grown into more feminine features. Ha! </p>
