[quote=Egm80]My entire life, I've struggled with a facial mark that caused a great deal of bullying and embarrassment throughout my childhood. I've spent 10's of thousands of dollars to improve the appearance of it - those procedures plus heavy makeup allows it to go somewhat undetected in my life now that I'm in my 30s.  I met my husband after much of this was done.

I now have a handsome little boy - well, handsome if it weren't for the fact that I passed on this blemish. I'm wracked with guilt. I really thought that this was a fluke thing and not something to worry about passing, but it's so prominent on my baby as his skin is milky white and the contrast is so strong. As a male, he won't be able to wear makeup to cover it and I cannot tell you how horrible I feel about it.

My husband has been talking about another child and I'm beside myself. I can't imagine another child running around the house with this and my husband seeing the faint image of it on my face when I'm out of the shower.

Any advice on how I can get over myself and what I can do to help my son once he's old enough to get questions?[/quote]
