Wow. I just don't even know what to say. My husband is being a complete ass tonight. We went fishing and everything was awesome and now out of the blue he's questioning if our son is his because he has blue eyes. He's arguing about everything that he can think of. First of all, our son is his. Second of all, he obviously doesn't trust me. I told him to get a DNA test. I have nothing to hide. I can't believe this. Beyond pissed right now. Btw, our son is 10 months old, the only one in our family with blue eyes and looks just like I did as a baby. Oh my gawd...Im so pissed. How did our night go from laughs and relaxation to arguments and anger?

Wow.  I think this goes deep.. and he's been thinking about it for a little bit..

Maybe you guys were having TOO good of a time and it made him freak out for whatever reason ?  (guys are so weird that way..)

DH sometimes freaks out when things are too good between us.. it's a mixture of being scared of it being too good to be true and then something bad happening because the universe if off balance (lol) or he doesn't feel like he deserves it.. but your guy.. I guess he's seriously got a problem about the paternity issue.. ? :(

Got a lotta talkin to do.  I hope it works out okay.  :) 

Quoting SuperMom2433:

He's made little comments before but I always thought he was joking. Well, guess not. He says he's not happy and he's asking me if Im wanting him to move out. This is all so freaking ridiculous.


Quoting edgymom24:

wow im really sorry about your night. tell him you love him and just go to bed

 I wish I had something comforting or witty (either one) to say, but I really don't. That's crap and I'm sorry he's putting you through this. I hope you two are able to work something out. Good luck! (((HUGS)))

Um..... I am English and Irish.... As white as a chick can get.
My son is white as white can be.
And we never had bluish eyes....
My mom said mine were extremely dark since the day I was born and they turned brown.
My son was born with black eyes and they've turned a very dark brown.

I'm just saying the word "all" doesn't fit here

Maybe, maybe not. Babies of African and Asian descent are usually born with brown eyes that stay brown. Caucasian babies are often born with steel gray or dark blue eyes; they may stay gray or blue or turn green, hazel, or brown by the time they're 9 months old. That's because a child's irises (the colored part of the eye) may gain more pigment in the months after she's born, but they won't get "lighter" or more blue. (Green, hazel, and brown eyes actually have more pigment than grey or blue eyes, even if they appear lighter in color.)

Quoting jacobsmommy84:

No. NOT all babies are born blue-eyed. My eyes were brown from the day I was born and my son's eyes went from black to a really dark brown. Not a hint of blue.


My daughter has blue eyes though, with little specks of green, just like daddy:) she was born with bluish eyes and they've stayed that way.





Just thought I should clarify.

Is he a bit on the dim-witted side? Eye colors change. Mine are a different color every day! And ALL babies are born blue-eyed, then change over time! They might be blue now, but they could be orange a year from now!

Hi Jacobs Mommy, going back to my punnet squares earlier youve reminded me of something i read in a pregnancy book, I wont quote it word for word for copyright reasons, but in essense it goes along the lines of the genetics that will determin pigments will be set at conception but it isn't untill after the birth that the last bit of developement is completed thats why some babies eye coulrs apear to change, the colour starts to develop around 23 weeks of pregnancy, but may not be fully developed until a few months after the birth.
