My baby has my same ugly birthmark

My baby got the exact same birthmark I have (my dad also has the same exact birthmark). But hers is located on the center of her neck right on her baby neck fold. I am worried that the birthmark will move and end up on her side of the neck (worst case scenario) or on her face though face might be a long shot.

The birthmark in question is a port wine stain so its red and mine grew up to be quarter sized. Its an ugly birthmark because its red and looks like a hickey!! So you can imagine my worry if it moves to the sides of her neck.

Do you think it will move as my baby grows or chances of it staying in the same spot (center of the neck)?

Btw mine is in my forearm so there was not much space for it to move around in that area. Thats why I dont know how much it can or can’t move

Including pregnancy and giving birth (which in my case was painful with no epidural and traumatic). The weeks after giving birth, the body changes and weight gain that doesn’t seem to go away. Flabby jiggly skin omg

Breastfeeding ugh so frustrating. The pain it comes with. The leaking etc.

Now I am going through it with birth control. It has made me constantly bloated, full of acne, weight gain that came back and stayed, spotting, hormones up and down all over again. Just thinking about having to be on it for YEARS is so annoying.

Oh and why is my hair suddenly falling out!!

I wouldn’t change a thing about my baby who I love sooo much but I hate feeling not myself!

Just venting while my alarm if going off to take the pil!

I have been to restaurants and mall and the 3 times I needed a changing station bad because my baby pooped, 2 family friendly restaurants did not have a diaper changing station. I had to take my babe to the car to change which was super uncomfortable because the lack of space plus made the car stinky and baby cranky which ruined the dinner, and the mall had one out right next to where everyone washes their hands. At the mall I didn’t feel comfortable changing a stinky blowout diaper right in front of everyone. It was packed, there was a line, and people would’ve been right on top of me since it was only a few inches from the sinks.

Like how wonderful would it be to have a diaper changing station inside every one of those big wheelchair accessible stalls or more family restrooms so we can change our babies at our pace with some privacy.

Oh and by the way before when I wasn’t a mom I would see diaper changing stations in almost every public restroom but now that I need them, they are non existent.

I accidentally let my baby nap for almost 3 hours for the first time yesterday because I fell asleep from 3:30pm - 6:20pm. I pushed her bedtime 2 hours to 10 pm but that didn’t help. Last night she “napped“ all night. She slept 1-2 hours stretches and stayed up for 1-1.5 hours. She usually naps from 45mins to 1 hour max never past 1 hour.

She usually gives me 6-7 hours first stretch then 3 hour stretches after. She’s a gassy kinda fussy baby but the one thing she’s good at is sleeping.

How do I fix this today? I am planning on capping her naps at 30 mins but is that enough.

Btw shes 13 weeks

Is Woolino good for Texas summer heat?

I just bought one for my babe and contemplating on if it was a good choice. Temp in the bedroom will range from 72 to 74-75 Fahrenheit (70 if I get lucky) throughout the night.

I just dont want my babe to get too warm because she sleeps hot and sweats and I got the Woolino to help her stay cool supposedly.
