Anyone afraid their baby won't be cute?

I honestly believe that every mom thinks their baby is the cutest thing in the world. Because they're YOURS 🥰

I mean if we're totally honest, some baby are less cute. But I've never met a parent who doesnt think their baby is the most adorable baby in the world.

I understand you. I have a beautiful, intelligent, lovely niece (2 years old). She is adorable, and she is one of the main reasons why I wanted to have a kid, too. I love her so much. Now, I have pretty high expectations for my daughter, too, and I am afraid to compare them, mainly because each baby has their personality. I pray to God that my baby can be as beautiful and bright as my niece. Also, I am always asking my sister in law some tips because I believe she has done a great job as a mom.

Has never crossed my mind lol it’s your baby! There’s no way you’re not going to think your own baby isn’t cute!

Ima be honest all newborn are ugly as fuck looking back at when my daughter was born literally a year ago today she was NOT the cutest but as she grew ( she’s one today ) she’s gotten so much more cuter

@Kea my boyfriend said babies take a few weeks to get cute. And I was like ugh I know that, but I need you to tell me she's the most beautiful thing you've ever seen when she comes out 🤣 I was like idc. Lie to me please

@Hayleigh I thought my daughter was the cutest freaking thing but the memories that popped up on my snap today I was like oh no 😅 😂😂😂

I worried about that too with my first, but as soon as you see your baby you’re gonna think it’s the cutest baby in the world.

I feel like right out of the womb they might look funny. But a cute funny! But that’s cuz they’ve been in you for 9 months. But they cute as they adjust to the outside and get cleaned up! I like to assume mine will be cute and low key worry it won’t be cuz everyone expects her to be a cute/beautiful baby since she will be mixed race and they all say mixed babies are so cute. 🤷‍♀️

Yes!! Haha my husband and I often ask “what if our baby is ugly?” Which is a shallow thing to ask, but it’s natural I think! But as everyone says, we’ll love em so much. This is my first too!

@Jessica some babies at FIRST look like aliens or tiny old people I feel. But obviously they grow out of that 😅

OMG, yes. I feel so guilty about this thought but can’t help consider it. Objectively I find some babies are cuter than others, and even if as a mother I might think mine is cute regardless I’ll probably try to compare him to others. So shallow and unimportant, I don’t even care about physical appearance in adults that much in general, so hoping this is just hormones and new mom anxiety.

Yes LMAO. Every single day I try to fuse my husband and I together in my mind and the alien I picture is not it 🤣. I'm going to love that tiny strange fusion of looks, but still lol. I thought this was normal 😭

I had to this thought when I was younger because I thought I was ugly but when I had my daughter shes literally so perfect and beautiful

Hell YES! I think it’s because my dad told me I used to be an ugly baby. I even have nightmares about him looking weird. It’s just my insecurities speaking

Objectively speaking, newborn babies probs don’t look cute because they’ve just gone through a hell of an experience being squished through a small space (presuming vaginal birth). That being said, unless your labor/birth is traumatic or you’re not allowed to hold your baby right away, the oxytocin bond (again, presuming unmedicated vaginal birth) will probably make you think your baby is the cutest thing in the world.

I feel you. I am a new mom too and want a cute baby or a good looking baby like the rest of my friends that compare.

Hahahaha I 100% had this fear. It was such a weird irrational fear. My baby came out absolutely perfect. She is the cutest baby around in my mommy opinion.

I actually feel the same way. No judgment

It's gotta be fairly common, because I was afraid of this for my son too. I remember even crying when he was put on my chest I pointed out how I was happy he's a cute baby 😅🥰

I was VERY afraid of this! But our daughter is the cutest thing in the world! We are obsessed! 🤩
