    to answer your first question NO!! I am and Bi racial woman (Afro-American and Caucasian) My husband is Hispanic and we have 4 children together. No certain health risks. Make sure you eat well and drink plenty of fluids. Pre natal care is very important. Good luck conceiving!!

    Fastest Way to Lose Weight

    Start taking prenatal vitamins, no smoking, no getting drunk, exercise, and keep a healthy diet.

    I dont think interracial babys have any problems. But be sure to talk to your doctor if there are any hereditary diseases in either one of your families.

    Good luck and Baby dust!! I hope you get your miracle soon!!

    There are no more risks based upon interracial children. My suggestions? If you are on the pill you should go off it now and use other forms of birthcontrol until you are ready to conceive. Go ahead and start taking prenatal vitamins and a folic acid supplment. If you don’t eat healthy START. You should also get plenty of exercise, walking is great especially when you are pregnant so start now if you don’t already. If you smoke, stop now. If your husband smokes ask him to quit. Make your home a no smoking zone to everyone who comes over. Nothing wrong with having a drink now and again, but limited and once you are pregnant NEVER!

    Once the child arrives, if you can breastfeed him/her, you will never regret it!

    Now, stop stressing about it. A great source for child development is Dr. Sears. I’d recommend purchasing his books. Also, take your concerns to your OB/GYN and start shopping for a good pediatrician.
