If you have a donor egg baby does he/she look like you?

[oldeggs]

I keep panicking about this for some reason and then read about epigenetics and how a donor egg/embryo baby can look like the carrying mother ? Is this really true. If so I think it would make the journey easier somehow for me. I don’t mean to sound shallow at all . If you have a DE baby do they look even a little bit like you ?

I've not read that about epigenetics only about how experiences can turn on or off different genes and how characteristics can be transferred so I guess facial expressions would also be imitated. The donor egg children I know do not resemble their mothers apart from one I know where they are both fairly unhealthy so both look perpetually tired and washed out.
I'm a recipient of DE and not expecting any facial resemblance. I know some clinics do the whole facial matching thing but ours didn't it. I'm not remotely bothered as I see lots of children not resembling their parents due to the way the genes work out. That said, my son (own egg) is my double.

I have a son from donor eggs (8) and another from own eggs (6) I don’t get told either look like me, I would say they both look like their dad, my eldest has dark hair like me, his dad and the egg donor, and my youngest from own egg has bright blonde hair, so the only comments we tend to get are people asking where he got his blonde hair from!

I have just given birth to a girl - DE pregnancy. I don’t think she looks like me, although some people said - she does, some - she doesn’t. It sounds like people see what they want to see.
My own genes daughter doesn’t look neither like me nor my partner. We are both dark eyes and olive sun tan skin, but our genetic daughter is blond with blue eyes.

We were matched with a donor who looked similar to me in terms of build, hair, skin and eye colour but my twins don't look like me at all! It's something I had to come to terms with as it was the only way I could get pregnant. They look a lot like their dad so people usually just say that. I've noticed other things though, such as one of them has similar interests to me and the other one said something with exactly the same intonation and pitch as me so it was like listening to myself! Obviously nurture rather than nature.

My wife carried our first and she looks like me interestingly. The mannerisms and facial expressions they pick up from you is quite something. Our second is my egg and she is very fair with blue eyes when the rest of us have olive skin and dark hair!

My DD is from a donor egg, and most people say she looks a lot like me. Evenmy fertility doctor says she looks like me.
I've even had a friend so she looks like my brother!!

And even after I tell people she's not genetically mine, they maintain and looks like me.
