I feel for you hon. This is something that has really been playing on my mind, and I am off to get all my spots checked by my GP next week at my 6 week check up (actually ds will be 9 weeks...oops!). I am very freckly and literally have hundreds of moles and sunspots etc, and I have no idea how to keep track of them, so I am going to ask my GP to refer me to a skin specialist. I have thought about going to a skin centre, but I was worried that it would just be a "money making" thing, and that they would just whip off whatever the saw? I noticed that during my pregnancy lots of my spots really darkened up, and the thing is that all of mine are abnormal shapes and sizes, something that they tell you to look for, but I think that they have always been like that? And literally EVERYWHERE I look I hear stories about skin cancers etc, and I wonder if this is God trying to tell me to do something about it, and get checked. Hmm, scary stuff. I am sure that you will be fine, and good on you for being proactive and getting it checked. I hope it goes well.
