RE: Red Wellies # 9: 👶🏼 How to Predict the Color of Your Baby's Eyes 👶🏼

in #parenting8 years ago

Your girlie is so adorable. I want another. :) Ha! That's another story for another day!! Anyway, we are the rule breakers here. My husband and I BOTH have green eyes. 2 of our kids have brown eyes and three of them have blue eyes. None of our kids have green eyes. It's so weird. We figured that they all would. I am the only one of my siblings with green eyes (like my dad and also born on his birthday). My three brothers have blue eyes and so does my mom. My husband's parents have blue and brown eyes and he is the only one with green eyes. It's so funny how we are created!

@apanamamama Thanks! I think you should, I mean you only have 5, what's 1 more :)

It really is interesting and I think it does come down to whether you have homozygous (both brown) or heterozygous (1 brown, 1 non-brown) genes, which you can't tell by looking, but maybe guess based on the outcome.

2 of our children have blue eyes (although my daughter says hers are grey now), 1 green and 1 brown/hazel and the baby chameleon :)
