Hi all, I hope everyone is well! Just a silly question from me... does anyone else's baby have piercing blue eyes? My Llewy has the most beautiful eyes, they are so light blue, almost grey and I absolutely adore them! I fully expected them to change to brown as both myself and my partner have brown eyes but at 7.5 months they seem to be sticking around. Anyone else got a blue eyed baby from 2 brown eyed parents? I'm hoping he's inherited the blue gene from my Dad's side of the family who all have blue eyes x

Hes gorgeous ๐ Here hun have a read of this! You and the baby's dad must have a blue eye recessive gene in your family in order for your baby to have blue eyes from 2 brown eyes parents..not 1 of you but both. But interestingly I just learned, it cannot happen the other way around! Both me and my partner have bright blue eyes...yet my mother had dark brown almost black eyes (dad had blue) so I was wondering if maybe our baby could be born with brown eyes...but apparently impossible! Found that so interesting. But here have a read xx
He looks so grown up Kat!!! Gorgeous blue eyed boy ๐๐
Oh I know!! He's a very sturdy boy. Looks more like 9/10 months than 7 really with all his teeth and being so big ๐
Gorgeous! So interesting how genetics work. I have Hazel eyes (green/brown), partner has brown - I think Isabella will have Hazel eyes like me but still can't work it out. My mum has grey/blue eyes so always wondered if this could have an impact, but from Niki_B's comment it sounds like there is so much more to it! Fascinating!
Hi first of all what a handsome little chap & beautiful eyes! I have green eyes ( Irish grandparents dads side) & my hubby has brown eyes- Francesca has piercing blue eyes! Both olis late father & my late Grandpa both had blue eyes so thatโs where the blue eyes come from! They are beautiful ๐ itโs amazing how many different family genes babies can inherit xxx
Aw heโs gorgeous! I have blue/grey eyes and my little boy currently has the same. We had to use a donor and my OH chose someone who had brown eyes like him so I keep imagining that I see his eyes turning brown...but so far they are just like mine at 4 months (and I hope they stay that way ๐) x
I'll be really interested to see how they turn out, I really hope they stay blue. People always comment on his lovely eyes, I absolutely adore them!
Ahh so gorgeous. Hmm all v interesting a. I wonder what my daughter may have as at the mo she too has very beautiful and piercing blue eyes. Iโm blue and father brown so who knows what she may have. She does have red hair too which neither of us have๐
It all very exciting to watch them grow and develop a xx
What a gorgeous boy ๐ My own little Louie has very striking blue/grey eyes too and both myself and his Dad have brown eyes. I looked it up and apparently thereโs only something like a 6% chance he will grow up to have blue eyes, but itโs possible as both myself and my husband carry a blue gene from one parent. I did wonder if they may still change as thereโs a picture of me when Iโm old enough to be sitting up unaided in the bath and mine are still blue, but I think Louieโs baby-blues are here to stay and thatโs fine I love them. He has blonde hair too, which neither of us have, but otherwise looks a lot like his Dad with a fair bit of me in there too.
Itโll be interesting to see if any of our little onesโ hair/ eye colours change over time, as remember both nephews and my nieceโs did quite a bit when they were all little xx
Aw another Louie ๐ฅฐ my mother in law mentioned that my partners blue eyes changed to brown at 3 months and I know mine were always brown so we shall wait and see. I know it's a small thing but I just love them ๐x
Same for us. Mary-Elizabeth is 13 months old and still has "blue" eyes. They used to be obviously blue when she was younger but now they appear different if you look at them from a different angle or in a certain light - almost like a green tint around the middle and grey around the edge. Hubby and I are both brown eyed too though my Mother is blue, Father brown and his Mother was brown and Father is blue so maybe they can get their eye colouring from grandparents too? xx
