Stork marks

Hi my baby is 6 weeks. She has 3 stork marks on her face - just wondered how long these would take to disappear?

I don't remember exactly when DSs disappeared, but they were gone by the time he was a year old :)
(one between his eyes and one on the back of his neck)

In the case of my DCs the marks on their eyelids disappeared very quickly certainly by a year or so. DS has one in the middle of his forehead too he's 7 now and I can still see it if I look closely, because I know it's there, but it's so subtle now that I doubt anyone else would notice at all. It had probably faded enough to be unnoticeable to most people by the time he was two (may have been earlier) but would show up more when he got cold or angry.

Back of the neck marks I'm not sure -- DS's and DD1's both seem to have gone but I can still see DD2's (very nearly 1).
