Hemangiomas: These hemangiomas will probably not go away on their own, but may respond to laser treatment if they are bothersome to you in some way.

Likely...: If the hemangiomas are hormone-sensitive, that is, they arose due to the hormone changes during pregnancy, they will likely fade away in time, usually several months. Best wishes to you and your growing family!

Hemangiomas: you may have pyogenic granulomas which appear like hemangiomas and are associated with pregnancy. They generally regress without intervention but sometimes require either excision or cautery.
