All babies look like actor Wallace Shawn. Any resemblance to their parents is overridden by their resemblance to Wallace Shawn and may be coincidental or imagined.
Not true, my baby looked like Grand Nagus Zek
Inconceivable! Some also look like Winston Churchill.
Sometimes I feel like my wife and I are the only ones who think that most infants are ugly.
Many people think that all but their own infants are ugly. You are just more vocal about it
I think all babies look the same.
No, lots of us. Who wants to be the first to confront them and tell them the truth? One of our family members just had one, sent out photos. I swear, it looked like a 97 year old man. It got lots of likes. 🤷♂️ I made the comment to my partner that it must of been over-baked.
So the prophecy is fulfilled and Benjamin Button is finally born, I see
There's probably a lot of people who think that, but avoid saying it out loud.
I think they're more creepy in a eerie rather than actually scary sort of way, kids tend to give me "uncanny valley" to an increasing degree the younger they are. I don't hold it against the kids themselves mind, they can't exactly help it, but I prefer not to be around young kids if I can help it just because they make me uncomfortable and on edge.
Nah, my partner and I think babies are ugly.
At that point you've already invested so much of your health and money to get there, a harmless lie to justify it all is fine.
Adipose.
I remember when my first was born. 2 different parts of my brain had opposing thoughts.
1 part was thinking "This is the cutest, most beautiful thing ever. I must protect and nurture them at all costs."
The other part was thinking "My god newborn babies are ugly!"
I can easily see cognitive dissonance pushes most people to the first thought. It's you being hacked by hormones, an effect that is disturbingly powerful.
I was also caught out by how much my (male) hormones were affected, even pre birth. It both disturbed and amused my wife.
Sister said once that "they kinda look like a potato thing". My other sister with her then half a year old didn't like hearing that.
Now the potato thing got cute.

Tbh I think you're not really unbiased when you just created human life

Friend of mine hadn't ever seen a newborn baby before she gave birth. She was quite shocked when her newborn daughter "looked like an old man"
Eddie Murphy and John Leguizamo both have hilarious bits about experiencing the birth of their first child. Basically describing it like the alien movies.
I'm convinced that John Leguizamos baby looked like this:
Breathtaking
why is the swedish prime minister in this
When I look back at pictures of my kids when they were newborn, they look like little rats. Still were genuinely cute at the time. They just don't photograph well.
