I have heard that a parent that is expecting can change their babies eye color before it is born.

I think that is about the most stupid question I have ever seen on here

No, there is nothing you can do about changing the color of the babies eyes. The baby is going to get the eye color they are meant to have.

sounds like just another stretch to me for parents waiting the "perfect" baby. Eye Color is determined by genetics so if you have brown in your family and your husband has nothing but brown in his family you will have brown most likely and no there is no changing that. I doubt there is anything you can do to make sure of a certain eye color. I am blue eyed, my ex is hazel and our oldest son has blue eyes but my youngest has brown.

This is an old wives tale based on the fact that some people do change eye color, even as adults. But, no, there isn't anything you can do to guarantee, for instance, that your child will have blue eyes instead of hazel.

i heard that too.its done really early in the pregnancy or in a petri dish. but its not set in stone that the baby will turn out the way you want. the same with the sex of the baby, hair style, hair color. but who really knows if it works. i wouldn't do it because it would be fun to be surprised when he or she comes out and you see what mom and dad passed down

That is one of the stupidest things I have ever heard. What year do you think this is? Are we then also able to make them have straight noses, blond hair, skin color of our choosing?

No, as soon as an egg is fertilized, the eye color is already in place.

No. If you want to try and choose eye color choose your partner carefully, and even then it is not a sure thing.

No not at all...genetics are permanent; pre-planned; encoded into babies blood. The can after birth if they put contacts in-but what ludacris would do that?

Not yet. I imagine that in the future you will be able to pick the design of your baby as you would your home interior.
