OPINIONS PLEASE !!!

so ... I'm really curious to know what color eyes my son will have.

YES I know babies usually come out with blue or gray eyes till about 3 months.

And YES IM VERY AWARE THAT NO ONE CAN GIVE ME A CORRECT ANSWER, this is pretty much all for fun.(;

My boyfriend has blue eyes. Both his parents have colored eyes. My mom has green eyes. Two of my brothers have hazel eyes. Me and one of my other brothers came out with brown eyes!

I'm curious to know everyone's opinions or input. Maybe even some of your stories?!
Or even if someone knows how those genetics work!

Once again it's all for fun and I know no one can give me the actual answer :)

Yeah my bf is German and Irish. I'm Irish, Mexican, and Native American. I get tan but for the most part I'm light skinned. I'm sure he'll come out light but I really want him to have his dad's eyes ;) lol

Theres a chance that baby could take after your mothers eyes. My sister in laws eyes are brown, her husbands are brown but her moms are green. Her first 2 kids came with brown eyes and her third came out with green eyes. :)

But, it has a lot to do with dominant and recessive traits. I havent been in biology class for YEARS so my memory is horrible, but it sounds like most of your family on both sides have colored eyes so theres a very high probability of your son having an eye color other than brown. :)

My younger son has hazel eyes.  I have blue, husband blue and his brother blue.  My whole side o the family (and I mean EVERYONE) has blue.  My husband's side has a lot of brown eyes. I love my son's hazel eyes . . .   they are a little magical. :>)

And with a mom and dad who have blue eyes, I was surprised at my son's eye color.  We thought he had brown eyes for a long time. They can look light brown.  When they are blue or bluish green, they always have a golden brown ring around his pupil.  Funky!  He gets lots of compliments on his eyes.

My husband is dark with brown eyes and im very white with grey eyes and my son is a perfect mix of both. He has light greenish brown eyes with blond hair and tans like daddy. I swear he got the best of both worlds. The whole recessive domininent gene thing isn't quite as cut and dry as they teach in school.

Given that you have brown but others in your family have light eyes, that tells us you have one dominant and one recessive trait. Your boyfriend has entirely recessive.
Based on a Punnet square you would have 50/50 chance of light vs dark. The only tricky part is that green is dominant to blue so I would say you're most looking at green to hazel.

Breonna, once you find out the gender things will go by quicker then you can finally shop and start planning a baby shower and such! I wanted a girl soooo bad and everyone was like you're gonna have a boy and sure enough it was a boy ;) lol I'm actually really happy my baby is a boy even though girls are more fun to shop for!
