DD2 had one at the bottom of her spine. You can't see it now. She has lovely tanned skinned which comes from her dads side, they are Maltese. I am Australian with English background and have very white skin.
DD2 has one in about the middle of her back. Very Caucasion here. DH's family is mostly Irish and Welsh. Mine is mostly Irish and English. DH is a strawberry blonde with red skin undertones, whilst I have an olive undertone (fair but olive if that makes sense)
My son had a light mongolian spot at the base of his spine, but it's gone now. I'm very Caucasian and hubby is Anglo Indian.
My step son had a very very dark mongolian spot that covered half his butt, lol. He is half Anglo Indian and half South American. He's 14 so I can't say I've ever seen his butt, hehe, but he accused us of making it up as a story, so I assume it's gone now
Both of mine have them but not blue on the front on their thigh - sort of a greyish/brown patch.... My kids are 1/4 Japanese. DD is fair with light brown hair and DS is blue eyed and has olive brown skin!! They don't look Japanese at all but then neither does DH who looks more Italian/Maori/Fijian!
ETA: Not sure ours are MBS now - they were never blue and I don't think they will ever fade (was just reading they fade over time) as DH and his brother both have them still now.

I didn't realise you could get them on other parts of your body, I thought they were always on your spine? If that's so, I think I have one on my left thigh.
