Strawberry birthmark at 10 weeks old?

[Katey94]

Hey all, my daughter is 10 weeks old and has a strawberry birthmark on her stomach which came up around 2 weeks old , today I noticed a tiny red spot under her eye , it’s not a scratch or a pimple and I’m worried it might be another strawberry birthmark appearing on her face , the one on her belly is very red, bumpy and raised and I’d hate her to be stared at and bullied for one on her face , is it possible for a strawberry mark to appear at 10 weeks?

My DD had a strawberry birthmark, it appeared after about 2 weeks as I remember. They can appear when babies are several weeks old I believe.

My DDs appeared on her arm after a week or so. However it had completely disappeared by the time she was about 6 years, and having faded significantly after about 4 years.

Hi my DD had a large strawberry birthmark right next to her eye.
We really worried about it and she was monitored by the consultants at hospital until they were happy that it wasn't impacting on her eye.
It gradually faded and I would say that by 3 or 4 years ish it was gone. If she gets really cross/ upset now (she's 12) there's a very slight red mark, but otherwise you would never know that she'd had it ( and I think I only notice because I know if you get me).
Enjoy your gorgeous baby!

I had a pretty big strawberry birthmark on my stomach as a baby, it really faded over the years and by the time I hit my late teens it was barely noticeable. I haven't even thought about it in years but I went to the mirror to check for signs of it after reading your post and can just about make out 2 small red dots.

I didn't realise birthmarks could show up weeks after birth so that's interesting to know.
