Here is a really odd question.
If you have red hair, was it red when you were born, or was it blonde but turned red during the first year?
And are babies born with a lot of freckles or do they appear later in life?
Strange questions, I know. But a friend of mine has a baby who was blonde, but now her hair is turning redish. (She does have red hair in the family) She is almost a year old. Any way the mom, has a lot of freckles and is afraid that the baby will get that from her. (she hates her freckles cuz in the sun down here in Florida they multipy! she has to avoid the sun so she doesn't get patchy.) I would have assumed if the baby was going to have a lot of freckles that she would have them already. But then I got to thinking, you don't really see newborns covered in freckles. So I thought I would ask you all.
