Is this a birthmark?

Hi all,

My DD was born at 34 weeks, and is now 9 weeks actual but 4 weeks corrected. Over the last few days I've noticed a small very pale brown patch on her cheek. Looking back at photos it looks like there was always a faint shadow but it seems more defined now. Sometimes it is quite visible but other times I can barely see it. Is this a CAL birthmark do you think, or could it be the start of a large mole, or something else? It is not symmetrical and looks almost triangular in shape so a mole wasn't my first thought. I was bullied in school due to having a few moles so I just found myself wondering what this might be or whether it will get darker/larger/fade with time?

(I of course think DD is perfect the way she is, I am just curious as to what people think 🙂)

Thanks folks!
