[quote=Anonymous]I don’t look like either of my biological parents. No one ever told me that I look “just like” anyone on either side of the family. My brother also doesn’t strongly resemble either parent. I grew up thinking that it was weird when people do look just like one of their parents! I’m unaware of anyone being bothered by our lack of resemblance. Dh and I needed to use IVF to conceive and we had twins. Dh asked (jokingly) how we know for sure they’re ours since we didn’t conceive the old fashioned way - because one of our twins is his mini me and the other is my mini me. “Dh” and I are now divorcing, but I love that one of our kids looks like him. DC has striking features and is very physically attractive. I don’t love the child who looks like me any more than I love the one who doesn’t. My kids are older. I feel like the older your kids are, the more you see them as distinct individuals, and you think much less about resemblance.[/quote]
