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
What about you?

No...I wish. I am 24 & people have always said I look like im 20-22ish.
I get "teen mom" looks all the time (judgey mean ones).
I love when DH goes out with me & the baby for that reason.
Oh & I bought the best concealer ever for days I look haggered, because if someone told me I looked tired? I cry. Crrryyyy

@TurtleDoves: Are you going to share the name of this best concealer ever, for rapidly aging bees like myself??
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!!

I look older but I got carded on the first day I put LO in preschool, so I felt young again!! Briefly.

Sometimes. I think it depends when I have dark circles under my eyes.

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

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.

Sadly, yes. Looking back at photos of myself pre-baby, I definitely look older now.

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

Yes! It's sad . I think it's from being more tired, plus having less time to spend on myself.

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.

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.

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.

Probably... 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.

The other day I got carded and then told that I look "good for my age" - im 31 and that's the second time ive gotten that comment. damn teenage cashiers. 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
