Sites to know what your child will be like
To know how your child will be, you can resort to some online services, such as those that I am going to recommend in the following chapters, which combine the faces of the two future parents and merge them into an output photo that represents the hypothetical face of the boy or girl who is about to be born. So read on to learn more.
Make Me Babies
One of the first solutions I recommend you try is Make Me Babies, an online service that shows what your child will look like, using facial recognition to imagine what the face of the newborn could be.
Its operation is quite simple: just give him “fed” your photo and that of your partner and you are done. Alternatively, you can combine photos of some famous people or use images of some VIPs as partners, for even more fun use.
That said, to make use of Make Me Babies, connected to its main page, click on the Choose file button located in the Upload your photo box, upload your photo and then click on the Next button located at the bottom right. On the page that opens, presses the green Choose file button located in the box Unbox your partner photo, upload the photo of your partner and then click on the Next button located at the bottom right.
At this point, fill out the form that appears on the screen. indicating whether you hope to have a girl (Baby Girl), a boy (Baby boy) or both (Eather); Select your child’s skin color using the Auto-detect tool or by selecting one of the other available options.
Then type the baby’s name in the Baby Name text field, select one of the frames in the Choose baby frame box and, finally, presses the Next button.
If everything went well, you would see the hypothetical appearance of your child: if you wish, you can share the photo just obtained on social networks or send it via email, using the appropriate buttons offered by the site.
What Will My Baby Look Like
Another online service you can try is What Will My Baby Look Like. As you may have already guessed from its name, it is a site that, in a similar way to other solutions of this type, allows you to know how the face of your child will be, combining the faces of the two parents, or some VIPs.
That said, to use What Will My Baby Look Like, connect to its main page, click on the Click here to make your own baby now! and, on the page that opens, press the Choose file button, in order to upload a front photo of your face and then click on the Upload button.
Now you need to help the online service recognize the face. Therefore, following the directions that are shown to you, click on the four ends of the head in the photo you uploaded, placing four green dots: one above the forehead, one on the chin and the remaining two on the ears, then presses the Finish button to continue.
Once this is done, you will be shown the preview of the image you have selected: presses the Try Again button if you want to repeat the operation (in case you have made a mistake and the head should not be displayed entirely), or press the Continue button to move to the next step.
You will then be asked to define other sections of the face: you will then have to click on each eyebrow, on the eyes, nose, lips, hairline, and jaw. When you are done, click the Finish button.
Now press the Upload your image button and repeat the steps I indicated in the previous lines, to upload the photo of your partner, to merge it with yours and find out what face your child could have.
Then select one of the two photos you want to use to morph and press the Morph link. Now, in the next screen that is shown to you, click on the Prepared Images tab and press on the other photo to be used for morphing (that of the other parent of the child).
Indicate, then, the ethnicity of both parents through the drop-down menus located under the heading to make a baby image, select the ethnicity of the parents and, finally, press the Morph baby button.
Et-voila! The result will be a photo of a boy (or girl) that is the derivative of the “fusion” of your features with those of your partner.
Baby AC
Another online solution that you can use, to know what your child’s face could look like, is the service offered by Baby AC which, through artificial intelligence, scans and analyzes the faces of the parents’ photos, to offer you a potentially plausible result.
This tool can be used up to twice a day, or up to a maximum of five times a day if you register for a free account. In addition, uploaded images are deleted after 24 hours, to ensure greater protection of your privacy.
That said, to use the analysis tool of Baby AC connected to its official website and start uploading photos of parents, pressing on the buttons Dad’s photo and Mom’s Photo.
