Old wives tales?

Hi mummies, I know this sounds super ridiculous but I keep having people tell me this. Drink coffee, milo, or chocolate milk your baby will come out dark. Must only eat and drink white colour stuff then baby will be fair. Seriously, anyone can share your experience if this is even relevant? So fed up! Isn't the colour of your child based on yours and hubby's genes?

Old wives tale la 😂 baby is based on yours and hubby's genes, no such thing as drinking light or dark will affect the baby's skin.

Erm.. first tri, I had like coffee everyday, then after that Milo took over to replace coffee.. my baby come out fair skin leh..

I’ve been drinking Milo, tea and eating chocolate and my baby cane out Super fair. So don’t listen to whatever they say.

If a white couple drink coffee the baby also turns out black? Lol some people don't understand how genetic works

It is not true. Skin tone is genetic. Maybe not directly from the parents but the parents’ lineage.

Indeed it is ridiculous! I dont fall for this kind of old wives tales.

I believe complexion or skin colour is genetic one leh.
