Baby Eye Color

I came across this website today on one of the many bump boards that I stalk.

If you have a child already, do they have the color eyes that the website tells you they have the most probability of having?  If not, what does it say they will have and what do they have?

If you do not yet have a child, what eye color does it say your child will have?

Re: Baby Eye Color

  • Our children have a 72% chance of having my poopy brown eyes and just a 13.6% chance of having L's beautiful blue/green eyes.  As long as they have his dimples, I guess I'm ok with the brown eyes ;)

  • They don't have hazel, WTF!  Anyways, I took some good guesses at our parents eye color.  Drew and I both have blue eyes.  The site says that our child has a 100% chance of having blue eyes.

  • This has been posted on my month board a couple of times, Felicity has a 70% chance of green eyes, and 30% chance of Dh's blue.

    Now everyone's hoping for a "mini me", red head with green eyes. I'm worried about living with a redheaded teenager, I was hell on wheels!

    My overly happy baby girl!

    That is hilarious!  My mom always told me growing up that: "just remember, your children will one day give you back what you've been dishing out."

  • We're 100% blue which we figure already.  I have blue, DH has blue, my dad has blue, my mom has green, my sis has hazel and MIL has blue. 

    A friend of ours jokingly said she was jealous b/c we would have pretty blonde blue eyed children while she and her hubby were stuck with brunette and brown eyed kids.

  • 72.7 %chance of brown

    23.1 %chance of green

    4.0% chance of blue

    I didnt' realize until now how much I hope our kid has green eyes. Scott and I both have small eyes and his are deep set, so I really wanted something light. LOL

  • DH and I both have blue, my parents both have blue, and I'm pretty sure his dad has blue and his mom has brown.

    Our future hypothetical child will have blue eyes.

  • Andrew and I both have brown eyes, my parents have one set blue and one set brown, my sister has blue, ILs both have brown, BIL 1 has blue, BIL2 has brown, SIL has brown.

    Xander has brown eyes and it says our children should have the following chances:

    Brown 83.3

    Green 8.6

    Blue 8.0

  • Kiley has green eyes, with blue around the outside, it's really neat.

    Our's said though:

    Brown-86.3

    Green-8.5

     Blue-5.1

  • I can't fill it out because Rob has no idea what color his parents' eyes are. Typical male. Guess I'll have to fill it out later.

  • For Scott and I: 50% blue, 50% green

    Jordan's dad had brown eyes and Jordan has huge brown eyes like him. He did get my incredibly long eyelashes... I'm going to be beating girls away. Actually, I kind of already am.

  • I don't think it is right because my eyes are weird. I have green on the outside and brown around the iris.

    If I say that both of us have green eyes then it is 91% green 9% blue 0% brown

    If I consider my eyes brown:

    50% brown 43.7% green 6.2% blue.

    Guess we will find out in about a year lol

  • My eyes are purely hazel no more of one color than another.  I have brown around the iris, blue on the top half and green on the bottom half of one eye and the opposite on the other eye brown around the iris, blue on bottom and green on top.

    Both of my parents and my siblings have hazel eyes as well.

    DH has blue, almost gray, eyes.

    If I go with green eyes we have a 75% chance of a blue eyed baby.

  • 100% blue - my parents, his parents, and both of us are all blue.  If my kids eyes aren't blue, I have some 'splaining to do.

    DD: 6-24-11

    EDD: 9-20-14

  • Riley's eyes are still blue (well, hazel blue, there's a brown ring, but definitely blue).  There's only 16% chance of that according to the chart.  My dad and DH's dad both have blue eyes as do both my siblings and his sister.  The rest of us have brown.

    My sister and I have eyes like that...although my sister's are better than mine.

  • If I put in DH's dad eye color right, which I am pretty sure is brown we have a 90% chance for green eyed kids and 10% blue.  Zero % for brown...watch us somehow wind up with that even though it says it won't happen.  I'm happy with green, I love green.  DH and I both have green.

  • we have 100% chance of blue eyed babies.  But I knew that already.  Dh studied genetics so we had already figured that one out.  He has told me that any kids we have better not have something other than blue eyes or he'll know that its the mailman's kid.
  • 64% probability of green (yay!!!)

    35% probability of blue

    Jacob's eyes are blue and, at 12 months, I think they're staying blue. I was hoping for green, but now that I know the chances, I have faith that maybe the next one will :)

  • I forget the numbers but blue was the lowest and C's eyes are pretty blue. Nick's mom and my maternal grandma are the blue carriers.

  • We are 100% blue.

    I also did myself, with my parents and grandparents factored in and I had a 16% chance of having blue eyes and I did. 

    I heart Ben!!
