Baby eyes

[chrlng]

Hi. My baby is 3 weeks old.
Her eyes under the sunlight are this colour. What do you think? How are they going to be in the future? Turn to brown or green/grey?

They all start that colour.

Yeah babies are born with blue eyes, even animals.

I was expecting them to be dark already because her dad is asian with very dark eyes and my eyes are very dark too

I think they'll change in some way.

Both my DC had blue eyes at birth and for a good few months afterwards.

I'm fair with blue eyes and my DH is of Chinese heritage.

DC now have light brown/hazel and the other green eyes.

It's fascinating as we were convinced they'd both have dark eyes like my DH due to his apparent dominant eye colour but not the case.

And congratulations on your new baby!

I can't see the picture but it's too early to say. They don't get their true eye colour for several months if not years. DS1's eyes kept changing colour until he was about 7.

Thank you so much

Hi OP, my mum is Indian, my dad British with dark brown eyes.

My brother had dark brown eyes from birth, and I had bright blue eyes until I was two, Mum was super excited.

My eyes then went through to green, hazel and darkened to brown by adulthood.

@DinosApple

Wow! Your eyes were blue until 2 years old and changed? I guess I won't know my baby's final eye colour until later on but it's just a guessing game

Yes was going to say both mine ( mixed race) were born with very dark eyes - even my one who was blonde ( his eyes lightened a little)

Haha yes, it's definitely a guessing game!
Both my DC had bright blue eyes that changed to green at around two, and settled at golden hazel by 5.
Mine are dark brown now and DH has blue grey.

Who knows? Dh has brown eyes, I have blue / green eyes. Dd was born with black eyes which have lightened to dark brown. Ds was born with vvv blue eyes and they stayed that was until he was 10 years old. He's 15 now and they're mostly light blue / green same as mine. Very very different from the dark blue.

Yeah babies are born with blue eyes, even animals.

My daughter was born with incredibly dark brown almost black eyes.

My DC's eye colour change at approx. 3 months. But please do not fantasise about your child having light coloured eyes. Brown/dark eyes are beautiful too.

@secular39

I hope her eyes are dark (the darker the better)
I have always loved brown/dark brown eyes.
The reason I'm asking is because my mum's eyes are green. Both her parents had brown eyes and she just born with green just like her grandma. I think that's not the case with us because Asian genes are way stronger and she looks like my DH already!

Yes but if they are blue at birth it doesn't mean they will stay that way, that's all.

This is the colour

This is the colour 7 weeks later. She's 7 weeks now and I think it's getting lighter 🤔 I see some brown in the center but they look kind of hazel now...
