All of a sudden my armpit hurt today, and low and behold it's a brand new bright red skin tag. I consulted Dr. Google and apparently pregnant women get them all the time? This is from several websites. Gross gross gross, and my armpit hurts.
I have had one since almost the beginning and it's huge on my armpit. So gross- I've also since then gotten smaller ones on my neck. I asked the doc and he said it's normal for pregnant women to get them. I can't wait for them to be removed- going to wait til after pregnancy in case I get more. I wonder if they'll disappear on their own?
I too have had a few show up, especially in the armpit region. Thank god they have been small so far but I cannot wait to get them removed! Such gross little things!!
I have tiny little skin tags all over my boobs and sides of my chest. I've never had them before - I actually thought one was a piece of towel lint and when I went to pick it off, it started bleeding. Oops. Luckily none of them are huge, but they bother me nonetheless.
I have a couple on my back now. I scratched my back the other day and scratched one half way off! So then I had a gross, bleeding back. Ugh! I can't wait to go to the dermatologist!

You win.
Just curious, did it go away or did you have it removed?
