What? Why?! I think they're supposed to go away on their own between one and three years old... DS still has one at nineteen months, but it's been fading. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemangiomas#post-1721776 Wed, 25 Jun 2014 17:31:06 +0000 Ginabean3 1721776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!

She is 16 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemangiomas#post-1721681 Wed, 25 Jun 2014 16:25:29 +0000 mrs bunchy 1721681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aren't beta blockers usually given ? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemangiomas#post-1721644 Wed, 25 Jun 2014 16:01:00 +0000 sorrycharlie 1721644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: I can't believe your ped scared<br /> You like that!! My ped said they almost always disappear by 5-7 years of age as if it were never there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemangiomas#post-1721639 Wed, 25 Jun 2014 15:59:56 +0000 sorrycharlie 1721639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup - I think it started to show up around a few wks old. Idk when it peaked. One her chest, About a nickel size at it's worst. Then another small (pencil eraser) sized one popped up on her forehead and a teeny one on the inside of her knee. </p> <p>Started to fade around 14 months? It's totally flat now and still splotchy but insane how fast it started to disappear. She's 21 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemangiomas#post-1721629 Wed, 25 Jun 2014 15:54:49 +0000 spaniellove 1721629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks all! I didn't know what to make of it when the ped started to mention plastic surgeons. He has two on his belly and one on his back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemangiomas#post-1721525 Wed, 25 Jun 2014 15:22:46 +0000 blackbird 1721525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>E has one on her butt cheek and it's still there at 14 months. It's less noticeable; our ped says they usually go away by the time they're a year old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemangiomas#post-1721470 Wed, 25 Jun 2014 15:04:13 +0000 meganmp 1721470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD has one on her arm. It peaked around 2 months, and is almost gone at 19 months. my friends daughter had a huge one all over her face, and it peaked when she was born. It was almost completely gone about 9 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemangiomas#post-1721324 Wed, 25 Jun 2014 14:19:54 +0000 abmamma 1721324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD has one on her cheek. It was a tiny faint pink dot when she was born but by 4 weeks or so it was dark reddish-pink and got bigger. I'd say it peaked by 9-12 months (I can't totally remember exactly when) and has slowly been fading since then. She's 22 months now and it is significantly lighter but still there. Our pediatrician says it will continue to fade over time. We are going to see what happens over the next year or so and maybe get a dermatologist to take a look when she gets a little older if it is not gone/almost gone. But it is noticeably lighter now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemangiomas#post-1721272 Wed, 25 Jun 2014 14:04:02 +0000 artsyfartsy 1721272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>T is 4 months old. His got darker and redder around 2 weeks but since then hasn't changed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hemangiomas#post-1721268 Wed, 25 Jun 2014 14:02:59 +0000 spaniellove 1721268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone have a LO with a hemangioma? Or more than one? </p> <p>When did it reach a peak and how long did it take to resolve? Did it actually go away? </p>
