Well, the specialist in Little Rock has assured us that we have no reason to worry or to spring into action. These birthmarks are harmless and will go away on their own. So, the main growth periods of these things are usually 2-4 months and 7-9 months. Hence our freak out session...she turned 9 months on June 15th. So it grew pretty rapidly from 7-9 months. But the doc has assured us that the one in her nose will leave no mark, scar, or evidence that it was ever there when it starts shrinking and going away. We will go back to visit her again in 9-12 months as a follow-up...but for us this was a HUGE answer to prayer. We really didn't want her to have to go through any more medical "stuff", but we didn't want to not do anything about it if it was going to cause problems later. It kind of stinks that she has to live with these things for potentially years, but it could be oh so much worse and we are thankful that it's not.
