    When DS1 was born apparently my MIL said he was the spitting image of my BIL!!!
    I was under so much medication I didnt really get to have a good look at him til the next day and by then he looked like hubby from nose upwards but me nose downwards because of his little bum chin lol! now looking at him nearly 2 years later he has my rounder face, my blue eyes, stumpy legs and great skin but he has hubbys ears and thats about it lol!
    DS2 when born looked like me with the round face and again bum chin but he also has his dad's ears again but he also has his dads long body which is different to DS1.
    MIL was happy to describe him as another BIL look alike stupid woman!

    Theres a chinese saying that teh first daughter always looks like your brother. My DD was a spitting image of my brother and even my mum couldnt tell them apart when i pulled out a pic of him and pretended it was my daughter lol

    My DD arrived looking like the spitting image of her uncle, DH's brother lol now she just looks like a bit of all of us. But if you talk to my MIL every little feature and habit is completely from her side of the family....

    DH didn't get a look in with Sam at birth. From the minute he was born you'd call him a clone of me apart from the gender issue!

    I sometimes freak out when I look at him and see myself from my baby photos in him - it's really weird, but certain facial expressions are like I'm looking at my baby photos again and it is really, really weird at times.

    The only way DH appears in Sam is personality. Sam is me all over in looks and completely DH in personality. Better than being the reverse - I don't think I'd do well with a control-freak stress-head toddler!
