[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does your DD have any birthmarks? Like ones that looks blue-ish like a bruise? They are commonly referred to as Mongolian spots (old, non PC term) and are very, very common on black and biracial babies. They usually fade with age. http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/picture-of-mongolian-spots [/quote] Black and mixed race black/white people aren't the only ones who get Mongolian spots- asians do too. I don't know if latinos get them as well, but I wouldn't be surprised.

[quote] On average, prevalence of MS [mongolian spot] is around ten percent in White infants, 50% in Hispanics and 90%-100% in Asians and Africans[/quote][/quote]
