anyone get more freckles when pg?
I've noticed a ton more freckles on my face, arms, and hands lately. I haven't seen this many freckles on my face since I was a little girl! I'm guessing its a pregnancy thing!

I think I got more on my body, I feel like I'm noticing more on my legs than I used to. I have tons of freckles so it's hard to tell though lol.

A few more freckles but I'm definitely noticing little red broken blood vessel "dots" that are bugging me I hope they go away!

I have these - they are hermangiomas (spelling?). Totally harmless and just broken vessels like you describe.
Most of them will go away on their own, but could take 1-2 years plus. I have quite a few as they are caused by hormones.
I had one that grew pretty large on my face and had it lazer removed a few years ago.
I haven't noticed the freckles yet, but I did read in the book pregnancy causes brown spots on the skin.
Anyone BTDT - do they go away or fade afterwards?

Yeah, there is actually a medical reason why, but I can't think the of name. The same reason some people get pregnancy mask (I was one of the those lucky girls). And the same reason some people have a dark linea nigera. I think maybe it's excess melanin? Your skin is way more sensitive to the sun when you are pregnant. It does fade after birth. It took probably 3 months for my face to go back to normal, and about 5 months for my linea nigera to fade completely. Although, it was way less noticeable at 3 months.

Yes - more moles and freckles for sure.
I also had that little bloody pimple and got it removed a few weeks ago. It was annoying me and I couldn't look at it anymore.
