Baby eye colour

My sons eyes looked grey/dark blue when he was born. He’s 6 days now. Would you say they are now brown and will stay brown? Dad has green hazel and I have dark brown

It can take up to a year for permanent eye colours to establish. Brown is dominant though so likely they'll be brown

Maybe. Or maybe not.

I posted too soon. My husband and I were golden brown and green and we have a dark brown, a golden brown same as mine, and a green.

Eyes can change for months after birth. My youngest son had blue eyes for about 10 months then they turned brown.

I am blonde with very blue eyes. DH is dark haired with brown eyes. All our kids have dark brown eyes and dark hair.

Well they look brown in that pic. Yes, eyes can change colour for months/a year or so, but that's gradually changing from blue to a different colour. Eyes don't go from blue to brown and then back to blue, it doesn't work that way.
