Age difference

Today, I took my newborn son to his one week weight check appointment. The pediatrician said, “OK, and he’s here today with his mom and big brother?” He thought my husband, who is 21 months older than me, was my son. How old do I look? FML
I agree, your life sucks 1 548
You deserved it 179

Same thing different taste

This seems less about how old you look and more about how young your husband looks. If he is old enough to have his own child but is being asked if he’s the older brother of a newborn, it sounds like he probably looks insanely young for his age, and judging by the fact that you said he is “21 months older” I’m assuming you’re both relatively young parents. Some men can look like young teenagers until their mid to late 20s, especially if they don’t have thick facial hair and shave what they do have.
