My twin daughter,Hailey, has hemangios. She has one under her right eye, one in between her eyes, one on her back and a very small one under her neck. She was born at 25 weeks. She is now 8 mo. old actual age and 4 1/2 mo. adj. age. I was just wondering if anyone else's children were born with these. The big one on her back has already started to shrink. I was wondering how long before they are gone. Everytime we go out in public I have to explain what happened to her eye everytime someone wants to look at the babies. It's really starting to get on my nerves. When I look at her now I don't even see them. All I see if the beautiful little face behind them. I just worry about other kids teasing her if they do take years to go away.Any help or experience is greatly appreciated.
