GOT FML
Today, my husband and I, as well as our two oldest kids, have dark hair. Our youngest came out with very blonde hair, like my older brother's. My husband insists on calling the baby our little “golden-haired Lannister”, no matter how many times I’ve asked him to stop. He thinks it’s hilarious. FML

Suspicious Minds
Today, I finally found out why my wife always told me to never visit her at work. You see, my wife and I are dark haired with blue/brown eyes and our daughter is blonde with very striking emerald green eyes. You know who else is blonde with striking emerald eyes? My wife’s boss. FML

Today, my son was finally born. He was the perfect weight, as healthy as can be, and has his father’s dark, chocolate complexion. At least I’m guessing so, since both my wife and I are white. FML

Suspicious coincidence?
Today, my wife had our first child. He's identical to her coworker. FML

Foiled by genetics
Today, I was chatting with my optician and it came up that eye colour is determined by parents eye colour, such as how blue and brown-eyed parents can’t make a green-eyed baby. My wife and I are blue and brown. Our 6 year-old has green eyes. I confronted her and she admitted she'd had an affair. FML

Today, I noticed my nephew has blue eyes, freckles and dimples which don't run in my family or my sister's husband's family, but they do run in my husband's family. FML

Today, I colored my hair. It was supposed to turn out blonde, but it became more a mix of red and brown and blonde patches. When I tried coloring everything back, a green tint was added. My hair is at the moment red, brown, blonde and green. FML

Today, I decided to dye my hair blue. The result is slightly different than I expected: my white bathroom is now blue, and so are my skin and nails. The only thing that isn't blue is my hair, which is now green. FML

It's just recessive genes. Don't worry. ^^

Hope you didn't assume your wife cheated or say anything to your wife about it, because like the many poeple above me stated it is possible. I put YDI for just being uneducated about genes and family traits and then having a kid.

Red hair's a recessive gene. It means nothing. If you're just upset because you don't want a red-haired baby, YDI.

....I don't see the FML here. Red hair isnt impossible, it could be somewhere back in the family or some other genetic thing. And red hair is pretty. I WISH I had red hair. Enjoy your new baby.

having red hair and being a ginger aren't the same.

wow, you are really worried over that? Both my parents and my brother have brown hair. My twin sister has brown hair, and I have red. Besides, red hair isn't really red...it's a mixture of the hair colors, I have blonde and brown in my hair, it's called strawberry blonde.

Yes, red hair is red. It's caused by a mutation in this one gene or something. I don't know. Just search "red hair" on wikipedia.
