My DD is half turkish. I'm British dark blonde hair, blue eyes, dad turkish with dark hair, brown eyes and skin that his very dark in the sun (naturally quite white). She's 5 months now, when she was born she had quite dark brown hair, which has now changed to a dark blonde, but sometimes it looks quite dark and in the sun it looks very blonde. Her eyes seem very blue some days and other days they look slightly grey and when you look at her to the side they look like they have some sort of greeny/browny tint, does anyone have any experience with this, does this mean her eyes are going to change? I actually really like the colour of her eyes, but I'm curious. And I'm guessing her hair will change? Her dad was very light until he was about 5 years old. So does that mean she will have dark hair, do you think?
I've heard that dark hair/eyes/skin are usually the stronger gene so I was surprised to see her with all of my features. But when I saw pictures of her dad when he was a child I wasn't so surprised then, I guess.
Either way my daughter is beautiful but I'm just bored on a Sunday while she naps and was wondering if anyone had any children who changed completely.
I realise my post has made her sound like a chameleon or something Hahah with all the colours I described. I'm just used to British babies with blonde hair and blue eyes cos that's all that's in my family. They're all beautiful.
thanks.
