New skin marks on me after DD was born

[Anonymous]

My DD is now 8 weeks and I have been noticing some new marks on my stomach and chest. Some are small like freckles and other are darker and slightly larger. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this normal?

I got a a few little freckles on my chest on/near my nipples when I was nearing the end of my pregnancy and during the first few weeks of breast feeding. I think it was due to hormones, but that's just a guess.

I found that every freckle, spot or mole I had turned darker during pregnancy... and it seems to have stayed darker. I also found I developed a bunch of new freckles on my chest/neck area.

Not to get graphic or gross...but...I got a bunch of moles/skin tags during my pregnancy. I even went to a dermatologist because some of them were getting really irritated and I had them removed. The dr. said this was common during pregnancy. I'm sure just after you have the baby it's the same...hormones running amok. And the strange thing is that some of my flat moles that showed up near my nipples are starting to peel off on their own. It's weird all the stuff that can happen to you when you have a baby.
