Hi I was just wondering what the chances are that me and my partner will have ginger babys?

[adelleprice]

I love ginger hair however i think it is doubtful that i will have a ginger baby. I have Blonde hair and my partner has black. His mother and father both have dark hair and my mother and father are blonde and dark. Both our siblings have either dark or blonde hair. On my side of the family there is one person with red hair however she is my nans sister daughter and her father may have carried the gene and on my boyfriends there is his mothers sisters daughter daughter that is a red head and possibly a few distant cousins. What do you think my possibility ofhaving a ginger baby is? My boyfriends favourite hair colour is dark however i like ginger. Any answers would be appreciated. thanks

You have a 78% change of a ginger.

what's so good about ginger hair!? I love ginger biscuits, I love ginger beer, and my girlfriend made the best ginger, cinnamon and orange cupcakes on friday...but ginger hair!? As in Bianca / Chris Evans / Paul Scholes ginger!?

My mother had blonde hair and my Dad black and I'm ginge. Mum had a couple of near relatives who were red-head, so keep fingers (but not legs!) crossed.

.....pa ul3: it's never gingers who keep trying other colours with hair-dyes - it's everyone else!

[ummmm]

My Nan and Grandad...both dark haired had two ginger kids. My Uncle (ginger) has 3 ginger kids out of 5. His brother (fair) has 1 ginger out of 4.

My OH is ginger, so is his Mum and Sister...

we have a ginge-in-denial in our office, he even had his eyelashed tinted!

[redcrx]

if it doesnt have ginger hair, dont worry, just keep producing kids til you find one that meets the criteria. :)

[McMouse]

Our milkman's ginger.

If it isn't ginger swap it for one that is...as there will probably be some new mum upset that her child is condemned to a life of ginge ness

[redcrx]

rowans right, look on the hospital notice board for possibles.

[annie0000]

Maybe its a double bluff - adelle maybe doesn't want a ginger baby at all, but thinks she'll get better answers this way......clever huh!!!! ;o)

[jackthehat]

Are you gettting your excuses worked out in advance ?

[rowanwitch]

Good point...perhaps .partners best mate is a ginge....

[redcrx]

lol@jth. i think youve worked it out!

pinki, please get rid of that avatar, its making me heave more than the tongue one

[ummmm]

Poor pinki and her avatars...

My OH cracked up when I read him this...
