And like the name, I thought it looked a lot like a mole,\u201d Nicole says.<\/p>\n<p>In her blog, Nicole has described her feelings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dSome of the excitement of labor had passed, and I would say worry was the main emotion I felt \u2013 I recognized that it resembled a mole, but I had never seen anything like it, and I was worried it might be harmful to her. None of the nurses had said anything about it at this point, but I wasn\u2019t sure what to ask so I just held her tight and loved on her.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><iframe id=\"instagram-embed-2\" class=\"instagram-media instagram-media-rendered\" src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CU0zT_WpY6T\/embed\/captioned\/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=800&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fen.newsner.com&amp;rp=%2Ffamily%2Fmom-on-a-mission-to-show-daughter-she-is-beautiful%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwY2xjawHb6a1leHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHVYnT30DXNivRmxlQXdCrXbvKhDMbt6swXSmZ4WswoDXy2O3WxzZiPQ_vQ_aem_-OQkPnuRLrZG0jlTjX-eEg#%7B%22ci%22%3A2%2C%22os%22%3A2214.9000000003725%7D\" height=\"988\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-instgrm-payload-id=\"instagram-media-payload-2\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>A report by the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/rarediseases.org\/rare-diseases\/giant-congenital-melanocytic-nevus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">National Organization for Rare Diseases<\/a>\u00a0states that CMN can take the form of light brown or black patches, and can reach almost any size on any part of the body.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole and her partner now want to highlight their daughter\u2019s uniqueness, in a bid to encourage others that being slightly different isn\u2019t something to be ashamed of, but rather proud of.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor a lot of people, this is the first time seeing a birthmark like hers and that\u2019s part of why I enjoy sharing,\u201d Hall said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a good conversation for parents with their children to see kids have differences, or for those parents who do have a kid that looks like Winry or has any kind of a birthmark to see their child represented.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Given that Winry\u2019s birthmark could put her at an increased risk of developing melanoma (skin cancer), her parents take precautions to protect her skin.
