I Have Also Been Thinking About What Color Eyes And Hair My Baby Will Have. I Am White With Blonde Hair And Blue Eyes. Everyone In My Family Has Blue Eyes. My Fiance Is Mexican (Aztec) And He Has Black Hair And Brown Eyes. He Really Wants His Little Girl To Have Blue Eyes Like Me, But Im Not Sure How Likely It Is.

Most Caucasian babies are born with blue or grey eyes and Hispanic, Asian, African babies are born with brown. Their permanent eye color won't really set in for about 6-12 months. There's really no way of telling. Genes and DNA are hard to determine. My husband and I both have dark eyes and dark hair, our son has blue eyes and dirty blonde hair (yes we are both the biological parents lol)

Good chance that baby will be born with a different color than what theyll really end up me and my bros all born brown eyed even though my dads side is all blue. My husband and his bros born blue and they're all brown as mine now my son born with dark blue and after a yr slowly changed to brown

My husband has hazel, I have green...our son's came out blue from recessive genes. Punnet squares can give you a good indication but you'll have to know which eye colors are recessive and which are dominant.

I have Brown eyes, and my husband blue. We have 3 daughters our oldest has blue, our middle has Brown, and our youngest has green. I have no clue lol guess that's why baby number 4 is a boy ran out of all eye colors for girls. But my youngest daughters were grey ish green until she was a year now they are very green, I have heard green eyes can take longer to change

I have brown eyes and my husband has blue.  His whole family has blue and mine all has brown except my mom giving my kids a 50/50 chance.  So far both my kids have blue.  I wanted a blue eyed child so bad, now I am hoping this one has brown lol!  I think if his whole family has brown it would prolly mean brown but if he has a grandparent with blue he may be carrying a recessive giving some chance...but then I was always better at physics than biology LOL

Brown eyes are usually dominant unless you and your bf both have recessive genes for blue or green.
@madameX that's a great idea!  I love biology and science! Your answer made me smile!

No, nobody can tell you with any real degree of certainty. There are LOTS of different genes that mix together to determine eye color. My eyes are green hazel, my fiance's eyes are gray and our son's eyes are bright blue. It's kind of a crap shoot to put it bluntly. Brown is a fairly dominant trait so that's more likely but they could be blue or green or hazel if the genes mix properly. Always fun to wait and see!

You could do a punnett square with the info you have and get an answer that should be accurate with the dominant and recessive genes.
