I've had a mole on my torso for as long as I can remember. It's brown and looks a bit like an extra chocolatey, round cocoa puff. I've had it checked out couple of times in the past and each time I was reassured it was fine.
During first pregnancy it's been getting bigger. I've chalked it up to hormonal changes and didn't see anyone about it. Baby breastfed for a year and liked to play with -third nipple- said mole, once she became aware of it. For the last six months, since I've stopped breastfeeding, I haven't really paid it any attention. Last night my bra must have sat on top of the mole awkwardly and it's since been painful and red around the edges. I've noticed it looks bloody huge now and so am shitting myself.
On top of everything, I'm pregnant again - and as it's very early days I'm worrying about needing to get the mole cut out, or it having developed into something sinister.
Has anyone had this? AIBU to want to get this checked out ASAP, which in my neck of woods means waiting to see a GP for about 3-4 weeks?
AIBU?
