There is a possibility your baby could have blue eyes
Check out this web page for more info
"The colour of our eyes is produced by the pigment formation in the iris - the circle of tissue around the circular black pupil. Like everything else in our bodies, this is determined, in part at least, by our genes. However, eye colour also depends on other mechanisms such as transport of pigment, while factors such as trauma to the eye can alter it.
In the end, genes play a major part but aren't the whole story in explaining eye colour. For this reason, although it's possible to follow certain genetic rules, there are always exceptions to the rule.
As far as the genes part goes, we each inherit two copies of every gene - one from our mother and one from our father. In the case of the genes for eye colour, it's the particular combination of these two genes that determines which colour is formed. The gene for brown eyes is what's known as 'dominant' - this means that you only need one of the two eye colour genes to be brown for the eyes to be brown.
Green may be dominant too, although there are different degrees of dominant, even for brown eyes.
The gene for blue eyes tends to be what's known as recessive - it's weaker or overshadowed by the brown eye gene. In general, a child will only have blue eyes if both of their eye colour genes are blue (however, in reality there may be exceptions).
Brown-eyed parents may carry the blue eye gene
As you have brown eyes, at least one of your eye colour genes is brown. But the other one may be either brown or blue. Whatever the case, the brown colour is dominant. The same goes for your husband.
So you could both be carrying one blue eye gene - in fact this must be the case for your son to have blue eyes. If you each passed that blue eye gene on when your son was conceived, he would then have two blue eye genes, and this explains why he has blue eyes."
If I was gonna guess though I would say brown eyes especially if you have a strong filipino heritage.
Either way I bet your baby is gorgeous.

Only God will be able to answer this one . Everyone is made different . Both of my parents are dark with dark eyes and yet I came out light with hazel eyes. My oldest son has dark eyes because he takes after my ex husband . My 4mth daughter has blue eyes and her father has dark eyes . Its all in the genes . I am cuban and black , so I get my complexion and eyes from the cuban part of my family. But however your baby comes out just be grateful and happy for a healthy baby. Eye color shouldn't matter

Hey There!
I bet your eyes are really a very dark brown, and not black. Most asians have brown eyes, which are that color because of the large amount of melanin in them. If you have a lot of melanin, they can even appear to be black. Baby most likely will have lighter brown eyes, maybe a little lighter than your eyes, or even hazel eyes which have a moderate amount of melanin. Usually, but not always, brown eyes are dominant over blue. Complexion most likely will be a little lighter than yours with a similar undertone much like your own skin color. You won't know for sure untill baby is born, and that's part of the fun!

It has to do with your family. Does anyone in your family like parents grand parent great grandparents so on, have blue, green, or hazel eyes ? if yes then it is very possible for the baby to have blue eyes, if no then the baby might come out with light brown eyes and the baby will carry the blue eye gene for your grandchildren. The baby might come out a really beautiful light tan shade . One thing is for sure babies that have parents with different ethnic backgrounds always come out so beautiful!!!

I don't think you can ever be certain. It depends which gene is passed on to the next generation. It's been know for families that have been light skinned for generations to suddenly give birth to a child with dark skin. You can imagine the blame for infidelity that might be heaped on the hapless mother!

It's like shooting Dice, there are so many variables to consider.
Whatever color skin, eyes, hair the baby has, just be thankful for a healthy baby, a precious gift!

Yur baby will coming out with more of your features. It willbe lighter in color but the hair and eyes will be darker as your are. The mother's gene is more dominant when it comes to these things.

your baby could end up with blue or green eyes. My daughter is mixed her father is black with brown eyes and I'm white with green eyes and she came out with blue eyes and still has them blue eyes today. Her skin complexion will probley be very light.

Your baby will most likely have your eyes, with fair complexion. Blue eyes are a recessive gene so the odds of your baby getting is very unlikely, but not impossible. Accurate answer? You won't get one till the baby comes out. Duh?!
