What characteristics do you hope your LO has?

As we are all getting closer to meeting our LO's I know we are all starting to wonder what they will look like. So what physical characteristics do you hope your LO has from either you or your SO? 

My first looks a LOT like my DF. He has the big brown eyes, blonde hair, and perfect olive skin tone.

I'm really hoping this LO looks a lot like my DF and my first as well with only with my hazel eyes. I am also hoping this one is super chunky like my first. I love me some chunky babies!

Re: What characteristics do you hope your LO has?

  • I was hoping this LO might get SOMETHING from me, but alas, not happening. Lol.

    Just like his brother he looks exactly like their father. My cheeks and that's it, everyone instantly says they look like DH. Even the nurse who only saw DH for 15ish seconds.

    Hopefully this one has my eyes too, my only proof he's mine. Lol

  • I'm really really hoping my LO has my SOs nose. I'm Greek/Ukrainian so mine isn't the prettiest nose.

    I also want him to have my hair texture. Mine is thick, but really soft. SO has thick kind of fro-ey hair (weird for a Filipino)

    Personality wise, hopefully he gets SOs patience.

    Even though I am not talking to BD, I would love for her to have his olive skin tone, and his dark hair. But I would love if she had my blue/green eyes. Brown is said to be dominant though. :(

  • I too love chunky babies! I hope I get a 'meaty' one :) As far as what he looks like, my first is literally a mini me and to be honest, I love it. I kind of hope this one works out the same way...not that I don't think DH is adorable, I just want them to look alike!

  • I'm hoping LO has DH's ice blue eyes and long eye lashes. Along with my skin. I tan super easy and tend to not get burned even when I am at my most pasty white color. DH also has curly hair when he lets it grow, I wouldn't my LO having his blonde curly locks but if LO was a girl I'd prefer her have mine. Sometimes that frizzy curly hair is hard to work with and when you're a girl it takes a lot of managing. 

    DH looks just like his dad and even my niece got their eyes and eyelashes so I'll be bummed if LO comes out with my ugly brown eyes.

  • I hope he gets my dimples and nose & DH's height and pretty green/blue eyes.

    DS1 is a nice blend of DH and I. It's funny because we get such mixed opinions. Some people will say he looks just like me, some people think he looks just like DH.

    This was my first at a month old..

    He was definitely meaty! I miss his chunk so bad and honestly I don't know what I am going to do if this one isn't a chunk as well. I am with you on just wanting them to look alike.

  • I'm hoping this one has DH's chocolate brown silk straight hair. You would never know since I shaves it short, but his hair is to die for.  And LO needs to have his grandma's crystal blue eyes like his big brother was lucky enough to get.  I think that would be a killer combo.

  • I am hoping he gets his dad's determination...but will probably get both of our stubbornness to have that trait. I hope he has my hair, lips, his dad's nose, nails and beautifully smooth skin.
    But....the hubs family genes are strong. We'll see. My daughter doesnt even look like me. She looks more like my mother.

  • I'm hoping she gets DH's hair!  DD1 has my fine, thin hair that I already can't manage, so I don't need three heads of it!

    As long as she doesn't look like my MIL, I'll be happy!  Stick out tongue

  • I hope she gets my teeth! I'd love for her to get her dad's skin. Though neither of us have red hair, it runs in the family on both sides (his dad + sister; my dad + brother), and I hope she gets that too.

    But the women in my family all look the same - me EXACTLY like my mom, she and her sister the same - so I bet she looks like me.

  • So far my boy pretty much looks like me.  Blond hair, hazel eyes and eastern european (polish) looking.  The greek/mexican/native american genes from his bio father got stomped.  This baby I hope has my husband's beautiful blue eyes and we have some wild card red hair in there from his italian side.  Other than that - we have to wait and see.  I KNOW she will be tall since the husband and I are both 6' tall.

  • Stubborness is a euphemism for determination.  :)  At least that's what I keep telling myself about my son.

  • I've got my fingers crossed for blue eyes. DS has hazelish eyes, so I'm hoping that means DH has a recessive gene in there somewhere (I have blue eyes). We'll find out soon!

  • Everyone says DS looks just like DH (and he pretty much does), so I kind of hope DD looks like me.  I hope she has a decent amount of hair (DH's sister was bald til she was at least 2) - blond or brown would be fine (DS has my silky, fine blond hair).  

    I'm sure she'll be tall - hopefully not crazy tall though (I'm 5'8", DH is 6'7", and DS is consistently off the chart so far).  Other than that, I hope she & DS both get DH's eyesight since it's better than 20/20 & mine is terrible.

  • I hope that she has DH's wavy blonde hair, not my stick straight flat hair, as well as his nice tan skin and not my pasty WASP skin.

  • Just for fun i will say DH's eyes.  They are the most amazing shade of blue that I rarely see and perfectly shaped with extraordinary eyelashes.  Obviously I just want baby to be healthy and don't care about looks but if I could choose, that would be it.

  • I can't really say I'm hoping for any special physical characteristics in this LO.  She will have blue eyes as we both do, and I am sure she will be a beauty like her older sister.

    As for other qualities, I hope she grows to be a kind, compassionate, intelligent, and strong individual.

  • DS had a full head of hair.  I had a tiny bit of peach fuzz.  So another LO with at least some hair, especially since it's a girl haha.  I'd also prefer her to have my nose lol. Other than that, and those things are minor, I just want her to be healthy :). Another baby who STTN early on would be nice too lol. Ahh :)

  • Well LO will be 1/4 mexican, so Im sure he'll be a spitting image of DH. I am hoping he gets DH's dimples though. I kind of hope he has thinner hair than DH. DH has craaaazy thick wirey hair, and I have thin wispy hair. DH has a really pretty big smile, that I hope LO gets also.

    I hope he takes after me and is a big chunky baby. H was tiiiiny.

  • I'm more than ok if DS looks just like DH. I'm hoping he will have his dark hair anyway.

  • DS is a good mix of both of us.. I think he got the best of each of our traits.

    I am hoping LO takes after his brother with the majority of the same. I would like for LO to have more dark hair at birth and blue-er eyes. I would say DS has blue eyes.. but really they still sort of change depending on what he's wearing. Personality wise.. I hope he gets DS personality too.. DS is so laid back and easy going.. and is always smiling and happy.

  • I would love for LO to have SO eyes. You can already tell he has his fathers nose lips and chin by the 3d ultrasound. My step daughter has them too. She looks exactly like him! Also, his complexion. I'm pretty fair skinned, he gets a nice tan color. (and SD is half puerto rican.. I'm a tad jealous)
