40+ Parents Who Were Expecting Babies But Out Popped An Old Person

Babies are so pure. Every single baby has its own remarkable qualities, a true testament that every newborn is a miracle from up above.

All babies are cute — some have big and sparkling eyes, others have button-like noses, a lot of them have adorable smiles, and some babies have the whole “oh wow, she looks just like grandma” vibe.

But actually.

A timeless trend circulating the Internet involves parents posting pictures of their young babies looking like old people. Sometimes it’s just good timing, sometimes it’s a specific pose, and sometimes babies really just do look like the womb was a time machine set 70 years into the future.

And it’s always entertaining.

With that said, check out these hilarious photos of babies who seemingly leaped from their first breaths to the golden years, just like that.
