WHERE DO REDHEADED BABIES COME FROM?

Now you know the full story

After their baby was born, the panicked father went to see the
obstetrician "Doctor," the man said, "I don't mind telling you, but I'm a little upset because my daughter has red hair. She can't possibly be mine."

"Nonsense," the doctor said. "Even though you and your wife both have black hair, one of your ancestors may have contributed red hair to the gene pool."

"It isn't possible," the man insisted. "This can't be, our families on both sides had jet-black hair for generations."

"Well," said the doctor, "let me ask you this. How often do you have sex?"

The man seemed a bit ashamed. "I've been working very hard for the past year. We only made love once or twice every few months."

"Well, there you have it!" The doctor said confidently. "It's rust".

Reminds me of the story my grandmother used to tell about the birth of my mom. Back in 1937, they knocked women out for the birth, so my grandmother didn't get to see my mother until the next day. When the nurse carried her in and put her in my grandmother's arms, my grandmother freaked because the baby had red hair. She told the nurse that someone swithced babies on her, there was no WAY she would have a red-headed baby. Turns out, my grandfather was a red head when he was a young boy, then it turned brown...something he never thought to mention to his wife. My mom STILL has red hair...more like warm auburn, with brown eyes...which is very unusual for redheads...very striking combo! (and she is still beautiful at 70)

That's cute Karen! My mom also has a more auburn red hair (more red than brown, but definitely more brown than mine) - mine is just plain bright copper colored. But her eyes are the EXACT same color as her hair. It's kinda crazy...

Very unusual coloring...most redheads have either green or blue eyes!
