I have brown hair and brown eyes, my husband has brown hair and blue eyes, and our daughter ended up with brown hair and green eyes! She has the same color eyes as my DH's mom, and she looks just like her, so I think my MIL's dominant genes took over! It was her ultimate revenge on me! LOLOL

HI DIS friends,


I have three kids...my two boys have blonde hair and blue eyes. My girl has dark brown hair and brown eyes.

I'm expecting another baby in July and I'm curious if the baby will be a blonde/blue or a brown/brown child.

The books say if one parent is a blue eye and the other is a brown eye then one child out of four will be a blue eyed child. Well, I already got two blue eyed children! My DH is blue eyed and I'm brown eyed. My blue eye recessive gene goes way back to my grandfather.

I've studied all my friends' kids and YES the book therory is true. I'm the only one so far that has two blue eyed children out of similar background situation.

Anyone else?

Thanks! I know I'm corny!

I don't follow the book either Two blue eyed blondes one dark hair with brown eyes. Not trying for a 4th so we'll never know.
A relative of mine and her dh both had brown eyes her dd has beautiful bluish green eyes.

Ok, I was never good in Science so how do you figure this out? I don't have a child yet but I'm dark hair and blue-ish/green eyes. Mom is redhead with blue eyes and Dad is black hair with blue eyes. However, BF is Italian...am I more likely to have a brown eyed child?

 

[LadyFleur]

Isn't it true that two blue eyed parents can not have a brown eyed child?

Both DH and I have blue eyes, so if one of our kids came out with anything other than blue eyes, I'd definately have some explaining to do.

 

[birdiesunshine]

I have dark brown hair (blondish now ) and dark brown eyes. DH is blonde hair and blue eyes. DD has light browinsh/blonde hair and green/hazel eyes. Depends on what she's wearing but I would say they are more hazel.

Two blue-eyed parents can, in fact, have a brown-eyed child.

As for my daughter, my ex has green eyes, I've got brown. As you can see from my sig pic, my daughter's are quite blue.

 

[DisneyAddict_M]

My grandmother had blue eyes and my grandfather had brown eyes. All 4 of their children had brown eyes. My parents both have brown eyes, but my brother ended up with green eyes. My sister and BIL both have brown eyes, their daughter has blue eyes.

Genetics are weird.

 

[MrsKreamer]

My Dh has green/hazel eyes and mine are very dark brown. My son has one blue/grey eye and one brown eye. The doctor told us if it has lasted this long, then they will stay two different colors!

 

[Mysteria]

No children of my own yet but my mother had hazel eyes and my father brown. My sister and I both have brown eyes.

Myst

Hmmmm....never knew this. Still glad both of mine came out with blue eyes!

 

[minniepumpernickel]

My dad has green and my mom has brown. I have hazel-green, and my brothers have brown. I also have a half-sister with blue eyes. I know blue is recessive, but I'm not sure about green. I am dating a guy with sky-blue eyes, so if we ever had kids I have no idea what color the eyes would be.

 

[4DisneyfansinNC]

I have dark chocolate brown eyes, DH has lighter brown eyes. Our DD6 has hazel eyes, and DS4 has light brown eyes like DH. Not sure where the hazel eyes came in other than DH has a sister that has an eye that is half blue and half brown. (yes, you read that right, lol)

 

[kellydizfan]

I have brown eyes, husband has grey/green and all three kids have blue eyes. All were blond. My oldest daughters hair is brown, middle one is dirty blond and son is still blond. My mom & brother have blue eyes and my father and I have brown. Don't know about husbands side as there are eight kids.
