Strawberry birthmark - anyone had it stay flat?

I have a 2 week old. A strawberry mark has appeared the last couple of days on the back of her thigh. Or what I suspect is one anyway.

On googling it’s all quite frightening! Giant growths which look quite fragile and can apparently bleed profusely. Something which is apparently benign and does resolve but worried about the location and what this will mean for the next year or more potentially.

Anyone have one that just stayed flat and red birthmark like. It’s apparently 10% of children so suprised haven’t heard more about this and assume google is showing worst or the worst.

Anyone not had a rapidly growing mass please give me hope 🥹

Wow thank you all! This is very reassuring. I suppose time will tell and we just need to keep fingers crossed 🤞 😅
