So I'm excited to meet my little girl and finally get to see her face. I understand a lot of traits won't be noticeable yet, like hair and eye color can change in the coming months. However, DH and I have very different looks.
So I was wondering, what are you curious about how your child is going to look like? Or for those whom have had their babies, were you surprised by any of their traits?
The thing I'm most curious about is her eyes, not the color, but the shape/size. My eyes are super small and squinty, like my dad's. DH always says my eyes disappear when I smile. However, DH is part Lebanese and him and his family all have large, deep set Middle-Eastern eyes. So I'm curious to see if she's more like me or him in that aspect. When DH's sister was pregnant the u/s tech told her her son was going to have big eyes. It's that obvious.
Also curious about later eye color, I have blue eyes (even though neither of my parents do) and DH's are dark brown (though there are some blue eyes in his mom's family-non-lebanese side). But I know we'll have to see if her eyes change.

I'm anxious to see who she looks like because she doesn't cooperate during u/s. She either turns her face away when the tech tries to take her pic or she simply faces my spine. It's been so frustrating.
We both hope she looks like me. Hubby has a very strong forehead, chin and nose that he got from his mom's side of the family (his brother and mom both have it as well). Lets just say that his mom, while a very nice person, isn't the prettiest woman in the world.
I'm fairly sure she'll have dark eyes since mine are dark brown and Hubby's are hazel. I'm not sure what type of hair she has but I hope it's texture is more fine like mine rather than coarse like his. I have cute (somewhat chubby) cheeks and I'm pretty sure she'll get those as well. I'd like her to have my lips as hubby's are really thin.
Overall, she can look like anyone as long as she gets here safely and grows up healthy and happy.
Sometimes I stare at my baby and I can't believe she is mine because she looks so ethnic! She is so dark skinned, and she has such thick black hair and big eyebrows. She looks 100% Latino. My husband is Spanish and Portugese and I am a brunette white girl, mostly British.
My husband's genes definitely dominated. I think she may have my eye shape, but she also has his huge brown eyes that are so dark you can barely see the pupil. I love it!! I keep calling her my brown baby. My older daughter with a different dad was so pale and blonde hair and blue eyes, so this one is the polar opposite.

Based on our 3D and 29 weeks, I know that Rhys has DH's forehead, lips, and chin. He seems to have my chipmunk cheeks and my nose.
I am most curious about whose ears he has and whose eyes. DH has a beautiful pair of baby blues and I am hoping Rhys gets those.
