Age spots at 28 yrs old? Pregnancy?

Hi so I'm 28 years old in a few weeks and 34 weeks and 3 days pregnant with my first child. First pregnancy. I've got a very pale complextion and I've noticed I've got like 3 or 4 tiny little brown age spots appear on my neck completely out the blue, I've never noticed them before... Can pregnancy cause this? Any experiences here or any remedies incase they multiply?

Thank you in advance Smile

It could be pregnancy related pigmentation, aka the mask of pregnancy, I had this with my second child but not my first, it'll settle after baby arrives and after breastfeeding when your hormones go back to pre-pregnancy levels.

It's a pregnancy thing unfortunately. I haven't had them but my friend did. Hers have faded since she has given birth but have taken a bit of time. As PP said I think breastfeeding can prolong them a bit. I don't think there is much you can do about it unfortunately. Just try to embrace it and hold on to the fact they should go away!
