Did you guys know this?

So my coworker who is black had her baby this morning...her husband is white. She sent pictures and I blurted out "the baby looks white!". I guess they take a few days to darken... how am I supposed to know these things? 😅

🤣 When my mom was having my oldest brother there was a young black girl in the same room having a baby. She asked my mom if her milk was going to be chocolate.

@dumpstermeow some would say consider yourself fortunate..lol

@Primnproper I've chosen a certain path for a reason. 😅

I didn't know that until I worked in the NICU and my black co-worker friends filled me in. I was told to look at the babies ears and that was a good indication of how dark the baby would be.

The skin colour can have huge variation on mixed race children from quite pale to almost black.

@tallpowerhouseblonde she is dark, dark, and he is white white. 😅

@dumpstermeow I bet she is not bothered that that you said the baby is white.A little embarrassing is all.

The baby could be white skinned.
Genetics can be very unpredictable.
@dumpstermeow
There are so many beautiful combinations possible for delighted parents.

@SomeLikeItHot My point is that I was confused... she is gorgeous and I love her mom to death.
@dumpstermeow
Bless you.
It is hard to know
if you don’t know genetics.

@HoraceGreenley Bwahaha. I sat here and laughed at this for the past 6 minutes!

I didn't look white as a baby and I'm mixed, but then again my mother was white and my father was black... I wonder if that has anything to do with it? 🤔

LOL!😅 I've seen some newborns that are pretty dark too though so it's not always...😂
dumpstermeow · 41-45, F
@Haniazed maybe she will be lighter skinned. I'm just so confused. 😭
@dumpstermeow I bet she's gonna be cute regardless🤗
dumpstermeow · 41-45, F
@Haniazed she's already cute... you're absolutely right!

Yes I had a friend like that.. kid was pink.. took a while but he's darkish now.. kinda..
dumpstermeow · 41-45, F
@Coppercoil I was red. I eventually lightened into the hideous pink you see now. 😦
Coppercoil · M
@dumpstermeow perfect pink.. I like to say.. but whatever.
SW-User
Really? I didn't know that is how it works 😨
dumpstermeow · 41-45, F
@SW-User I had no clue. 😅
SW-User
@dumpstermeow well this is news to me! 😂
SW-User

dumpstermeow · 41-45, F
@SW-User she should be brown though. 😅

@SW-User what's so funny? 😭
Well I've read that online

Thank God I don't have to be embarrassed 🙄
dumpstermeow · 41-45, F
@marcusaurelius I don't tend to read about babies in my spare time. 😦
Wurkoutgurl · 46-50, F
@dumpstermeow it's not that big of a deal, don't worry about it
joesand99 · 41-45, M
Do you always speak your mind? I love it! So you are the girl that I have to say, be nice when we meet new people? :)

Babies are cute. It doesn't matter what color they are. Don't worry about it.
