[quote=Anonymous]Like a couple of the PPs, one of my children had a hemangioma as a baby-- a serious one that deformed a facial feature. It eventually required surgery, and it now looks much better but is still somewhat noticeable and might need a followup surgery when older. At the time I knew it wasn't great, and random people would often ask me about it (never in a mean way, just curious, especially kids)-- but looking back at the photos now I'm struck by how much worse it was than I thought at the time! I guess that protective motherhood gene had really kicked in for me. Now my younger kid has been lovely from an early age and we're often stopped in the store by comments like what a gorgeous baby, etc. It always makes me feel a bit awkward when my older kid is there, as if they'll remember/realize there's a difference in how people have treated them. I always try to make up for it with my own compliments.[/quote]
