Can you tell what color your babies eyes are going to be yet?  

post #1 of 16

I can't tell yet. With my first, I knew he was going to have brown eyes by now. With my daughter, I knew her eyes were going to be blue. But with this DS, it is hard to tell. I'm pretty sure they won't be brown, they just look too light. They look kinda grayish blue right now.
So, can anyone tell yet, or how long was it before you could tell with your other babies?

Well, they were very blue the day he was born, but I don't know what cour they'll be eventually. It doesn't help that my eyes change colour every day depending on what I'm wearing, and DF's eyes are kind of a brownish-green. So DS could have anything!

eli's eyes have already lightened and are now about four shades of blue. so i have two blue-eyed boys. i was hoping eli's eyes would be green like his daddy's, but i really can't complain, they're too beautiful.

Luna is 4+ weeks now and they look like they will stay blue. Dh and I both have blue eyes, so it's pretty likely.

dd1 it took YEARS for hers to turn brown.. they were greyish blue for the longest time.

dd2's eyes are still greyish blue.. so i have no clue.

i have brown eyes and both dd's dads (different dads) have blue eyes..

They better be blue! Dh and I both have blue eyes. Though I guess they could be green.

Nope, too soon to call it. They're still gray-blue now and actually look pretty similar to my eye color. However, my older daughter's eyes were gray-blue for well over a year and then turned hazel. At nearly three, she still looks like her eye color might eventually be brown.

DS's eyes are still dark blue, but judging by all his dark hair, they will turn brown. My first son's eyes didn't turn brown until he was two years old.

that's exactly what dd1's eyes did. grey-blue to hazel to brown.

My DS's eyes are very dark gray now, DH's eyes are blue and mine are hazel. Won't know for awhile, it'd be great if they were purple or glow in the dark!

Still dark gray-blue here. I'm guessing they'll be brown eventually.

Dark, almost-navy blue here. I so wanted a DC with blue eyes like DH's, but I guess that is not to be. I am pretty sure hers will turn brown.

That WOULD be cool! Liz Taylor has purple eyes, and I knew a guy in school that had them as well. He was a very sexy boy, name was Adam. Wonder what ever happened to him.

all of my kids took a couple of years to get tehir final color. My boys have green eyes, my older dd is blue, and my younger dd has hazel. I hope this baby will have green or hazel, but only time will tell...

They are still a grayish blue, but I know they will be brown since we all have brown eyes.

Brown eyes are dominant in my family. Recessive in DH's. My first two children are brown eyed. When my oldest DD was born, her eyes were almost black. Now they're very dark brown. DS had dark eyes that changed to milk chocolate brown.

These babies, it's hard to tell. They were born with the more dark bluish gray of newborns and are turning lighter. They may go gray like their daddy's eyes. I figured they'd be brown from my side of the family, but blue or gray would be fun for once.
