Moms and Newborns: 'He Looks Just Like Me' Meme
Dialogue
Overview
A meme featuring a two-part text overlay and an image. The top text reads: 'Moms with their newborns: oh my god he’s the most beautiful baby ever. He looks just like me' followed by 'Newborn:' below. The image shows a lumpy, featureless dough-like figure being held by hands with black nail polish, humorously representing the newborn's unimpressive appearance in contrast to the mother's enthusiastic claim.
Origin notes
Originates from Reddit's meme community. The meme combines user-added text with a photograph of a doughy, shapeless figure to create a humorous contrast between a mother's perception of her newborn and the baby's actual appearance, playing on the common trope of parents seeing their babies as beautiful despite their often wrinkly, featureless newborn looks.
