Both my babies had bight blue eyes when they were born. DD who is almost 3 still has the bright blues. DS has them now and I don't see them changing at all. He also has blonde hair so I think they will stay blue. My husband and his family have dark hair and eyes and I am shocked they both got blonde hair and blue eyes from their mama!
His eyes are dark blue. I think they've lightened up. H and I both have blue eyes (both lighter than LO's current eye color).
eta: I am in love with LO's long dark eyelashes, which have come in over the past couple of weeks. I don't know where he got them from, but they are beautiful.

Big of my kids had very dark eyes when they were born. Now, both kids have bright blue eyes. I think the doctor said whatever it is around 7 months is what usually sticks. DD's have been blue for about a year now.

My LO has darkish blue eyes. They haven't changed yet and I'm hoping they don't. I have blue eyes in my family but neither H or I have blue eyes so I'm not sure they'll stick. I read they can change up to 6-9 months, so I'm trying to not get too attached.
DD was born with dark blue/grayish eyes, but they're a lighter blue now. My mom's eyes are blue, but there the only blue on both sides. I have greenish and DH has brown, so I don't see her eyes staying blue.
However, my eyes were blue until I was 2 years old! They changed really late!
LO has blue eyes, they have lightened somewhat since he was born, they were more of a steely gray. I'm Hispanic with dark brown eyes, so I was shocked and amazed when LO came out with blue eyes because I'd always figured my dark brown Latino genes would squash his light blue genes.
LO has slate blue eyes right now. He had the dark baby blues when he was born. I have really light blue eyes and dh has brown. There is some blue in his family so LO might stay blue.
DD has the dark grey-blue eyes right now, but I'm expecting them to change. I have green eyes and DH has hazel, so really they could end up any color and I wouldn't be surprised.

LO has what I would call steely blue eyes. They were dark blue when he was born and they have changed since then. My eyes are green and DR'S eyes are a grey/green so I am thinking LOs will be some combo of those.
DS was born with the grayish slate blue color. They seem to be turning brown. DH has brown eyes. I have green. I was really hoping they'd be anything but brown. I was holding out hope that' he'd have one characteristic that was clearly me....

Another born w dark gray/blue and lightened to deep blue. I have very light blue and DH is Spanish/Greek/Italian w olive skin and dark eyes. I'm still presuming he won't get to keep these gorgeous blues, but at 12 weeks I'm getting more hopeful!
*not that I don't love my DH's gorgeous brown eyes...
DS was born with grey eyes. At 3-4 weeks they turned a lovely blue, just exactly the color my eyes were as a child (mine turned more blue/green when I was in high school). Just the past few days they're darkening but still blue. DH has brown eyes but his dad & sister have bright light blue eyes so we'll see.
DS was born was born with very dark gray eyes, like I had to put him in direct light to see his pupil dark. They've lightened some since then some days they look more blue like mine others they look brown like DH.
DD2's eyes are grey right now. They were so dark (almost black) when she was born. I hope that they'll be green like mine but they may stay grey. DD1 s eyes are bright blue (she's blonde). They were pretty much always blue but lightened up as she grew to 1 year. She has DH's eyes.
Little bit had blue/grey eyes. DH has hazel and I have brown. Fil has very blue eyes and so did my grandpa so they may stay but they haven't changed since she was born.
LO had dark blue eyes at first and now they look to be turning brown. In some lighting they still look blue. Pretty sure he's going to end up with brown hair and brown eyes since both DH and I have those color combos.
DS has dark blue eyes and they haven't changed since birth (or I can't tell a difference) . DH has light green eyes and I have brown/green hazel eyes. I wouldn't mind if they stayed dark blue. They're really pretty with his long lashes and brown hair.

Brady had dark blue eyes at birth, but they have lightened up to a pretty blue. I don't see them changing since every member of my family has blue eyes and my husband has blue as well. I would be shocked if Brady ended up with anything other than blue.
We have a lot of green and hazel eyed girls in our group!
Green is one of (if not) the rarest eye color too. It's really an absence of pigment/melanin. Because of this my green eyes often reflect what I'm wearing, "changing" them to blue, grey, or tealish.
