Growing Skin Tag

Anyone else have a skin tag that has grown tremendously during your pregnancy?? I've had one my entire life and in the past month it has grown soooo much- I hate it!Chat Icon

Re: Growing Skin Tag

Okay, I know this is gross and probably TMI.. but I developed what looks like 3 skin tags INSIDE my belly button! At first I thought maybe it was my belly button starting to push it's way out, but with only 4 weeks left to go, it's still an innie, but I have what looks like skin tags inside. I never had that before being pregnant.

I know that probably doesn't answer your question, but, I thought I'd share anyway! Chat Icon

WOW!!!! I thought I was the only weirdo. Since being pregnant I have skin tags, freckles and other marks that just keep popping up daily.

Re: Growing Skin Tag

skin tags are normal in pregnancy, once the pregnancy is over they will stop.

Re: Growing Skin Tag

Do they go away??

I never had skin tags but I have these tiny things now. I hate them! If they don't go away, I'm going to have them lazered off. I'm assuming that is totally doable, right?

I had a few removed after pregnancy. I had some spots before I was pregnant and they just got darker, and raised. They were so easy to get removed - done in under 5 minutes and didn't hurt at all! Chat Icon

Yes I got three on my neck with DD and all three fell off within say 3-4 weeks after I gave birth to DD. Unfortunately I think they can be pretty common during pregnancy.

Re: Growing Skin Tag

My most noticeable one is on top of my big belly. The rest are very small, and I only know they're there when I run my fingers over them. After Beepers is out and about, I'm going to the derm to get rid of them.

The small ones did go away for me, but the ones that were there pre-preg that grew did not. I also had a mole that grew during PG that did not go away & I had it removed. I'd like to also add that I am part Sicilian and have a gagillion moles anyway, so I never thought too much about it since I get scanned every 6 mos & have several removed at a time.
