@@dx315 It's no question. In Germany it's not documented as it's normal and only " not normal" things are getting documented in your child's documents. It was a rhetoric question. There are some doctors and nurses unaware of it's origin but it wouldn't end in child abuse procedures as the majority knows it. Especially the forensic pathologist (?) who you have to call for consultation in Germany.
@a.r.r.i.9841 it's a way to prevent false child abuse charges. Mongolian spots can also be associated with other inherited disorders of matobolism, vascular birth marks and o.s.d. it should be documented to also have the child screened for them.
Because primarily white countries, doctors are trained using white male as the golden standard, since a lot of studies are done on this group. Race is often forgotten when it comes to therapeutics.
Mongolian Spots don’t come from Genghis Khan, that’s just a legend or myth, they happen when melanocytes get trapped in the deeper layers of your skin during fetal development. They’re temporary and go away in time. (But not always.) The reason why Mongolian Spots are rarer on fairer skinned people is because fairer skinned people don’t have many melanocytes, and therefore don’t have the melanocytes to get trapped in the deeper layers of their skin, hence why it is rarer for them to get it. Oh, and melanocytes are just the cells that give your skin it’s color, if you didn’t know.
So therefore its not Mongolian. Mongolians never had contact with the native americans except maybe in very recent times. So then how would you have mongolian blood? You share a common ancestor but that mark coming from Ghengis Khan is 100% pure bullshit
I had a foster child with a Mongolian birthmark. Took him to the doctor and almost got turned in for beating a baby by a very young doctor. You would think doctors would be aware of this, but she wasn't
I don't believe this. Mongolian spots are taught in every medical and nursing schools in USA. if the doctor did not know about it, then she should have his license revoked.
My kids are half Chinese, 1/4 Danish 1/4 English, most of them were born with it. Here in Australia, my midwife’s knew straight away what it was and enlightened me, glad to know it doesn’t stay!
People really flexing having English or danish when they weren’t even white in the ancient world and certainly the native Americans weren’t what they are today looking so pale skinned. You people never seem to amaze me.
The way to tell the difference is to press the mark with your finger. Bruises don’t blanch or at least blanch very slightly. Mongolian spots do blanch when pressed. Regardless of what the current politically correct term is. I worked as a neonatal nurse for thirty one years and that’s how you can tell.
It's not just about political correctness. Many were under the false impression that these spots were only on Mongolian and Asian children. Political correctness has a purpose....
They said “just about” which means they agreed it’s still PC but for more accurate medical information. Unfortunately, common sense is not so common so you’ll have people taking the name “Mongolian Spots” literally assuming it only occur on Mongolian ppl.
@@GoldenOoby As if I said anything suggesting otherwise. Your last sentence directly contradicted your first. That's it. I get that snide is the default on the internet, but it just makes you sound dense when you can't admit simple mistakes.
I even called them “bruises” but I knew they weren’t! My dad I were almost arrested for child abuse in Indiana in 1986 when we took my younger son to the emergency room for vomiting. We are white but he is half Chinese. A Vietnamese doctor spoke up for us and explained they were only Mongolian spots.
And your Grandpa was in the Vietnam War slaughtering the ancestors of that Viet doctor, the one who saved your dad from jail. The irony. It's not your Grandpas fault though but just saying.
@@ryneagheilim9782 Excuse me. My father served on the US New Jersey WW11. My husband was airborne 101 during Vietnam. He was a patriot. In both cases the slaughter stemmed from the misuse of civilians by the Japanese and the the Viet Cong. My husband loved Asians and suffered terribly for what he saw. It ruined his life. He and the others who served were patriots. The Viet Cong were monsters. Ask some Vietnamese and Hmong patriots.
My first child has one 😂 his first dr kept telling us “I marked it in his chart, but still make sure you tell the next dr so they don’t think it’s abuse!” 😂
My wife is black so all of my kids are half black. They have Mongolian spots. We learned real quick to announce them to daycare providers because they will think you possibly are beating your kids.
My daughter is 29 when she was born one of the delivery nurses told us about her Mongolian spots that covered both buttocks and most of her right leg. The doctor also gave us a written and signed letter stating what it is…..because they had parents get CPS called on them reporting that they bruised and harmed their child when it was Mongolian spots. As my daughter’s skin tone darkened they faded away by the time she was four. I worked in child care for over twenty five years and educated teachers on the difference of a Mongolian spot and a bruise
It's formerly known as the Mongolian Blue Spot. The new term is called Congenital dermal melanocytosis. I am South Asian and myself and all my siblings were born with it. They usually disappear in early childhood. My two children were also born with the mark. It is common practice in the UK for the marks to be documented at birth during the baby check - this is due to the potential of being accused of beating your baby.
I wonder if it’s related to the same thing that happens to Golden Retrievers that have “purple bellies” from about 10 weeks to 10 months. Apparently, it’s a good sign, saying their pigment is working.
Or French. Or British. Or Russian. Netherlands, Croatia, Chile, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Slovakia, Cambodia, Costa Rica, Iceland, New Zealand, Norway.... Those are the most common flag colors...
I'm from México and those are so common that no one sees a newborn with blue marks and thinks something bad. I'm learning a gringos has their own ways.
You're just learning people from other places on this planet have different ways? Wow not much diversity in Mexico huh? Brown skin, brown eyes, black hair. People of "color" amirite
@@AliciaGuitar "not so much diversity in Mexico" 😂😂😂 tell me you're ignorant without telling me you're ignorant. Mexico is even more diverse than the United States according to statistics. Babies are born with all kinds of birthmarks and as long as doctors are not worried, we aren't either.
Mongolian spots have been the bain of many parents; it’s common in certain cultures, but because the majority culture does not know that, calling CPS has been common and parents have been jailed and separated from their children. Many, but not all, hospitals now require documentation at birth of Mongolian spots in an effort to be proactive down the road, but there’s hiccups with that; someone has to read the documentation. Medical cards should be given to parents with documentation not just of Mongolian spots, but other things such Osteogenesis Imperfecta where bones fractures are common and parents get accused of abuse
"Something Ghengis Khan did" is a pretty diplomatic way of saying the rape and ruin of 10s of thousands of women throughout the Asian and Eastern European medieval world.
My half Philippine daughter had a blue mark on her butt. We took her to ER and the doctor thought we were beating her until a more experienced doctor came in and explained to him what it was. He didn’t believe us. Eventually it went away.

My daughter had it. My wife is Poarch creek Indian. The doctor just told us it happens a lot with mixed race children. But he did say especially native Americans
I’m white and British and I was born with a blue arse. My mother is next to me and heard this video playing and she said both me and my 2 brothers were born this way and My Dad is White Scottish and My Mother White English so I’m half English, half Scottish.
Was born with Mongolian spots as a kid on my back. I was called to the principals office & asked about being abused. I sat there confused until another teacher came in and told them it was Mongolian Spots and were very common among Native American kids. I was sent back to class confused but my grandmother & aunt were notified I was questioned. 😅
Off subject, but one memory of being in preschool, going on a field trip with other little milk duds. We went to the fire department. They took ALL our fingerprints in the name of "fun".. Trust any government? Me?.. Lol
My blk daughters was born with these birthmarks. I remember the pediatrician said Mongolian birthmark and seemed amazed.… at the time I had no clue what that was
😅 my very white girl friend babysat my infant when i had a doc appt. She refused to return my child and called child protective services. I laughed, I explained, and patiently waited for authorities to confirm with her that they are indeed Mongolian spots. I was kind of appreciative that she was looking out for my child.
If only more had done 😮the same. Put the child’s welfare first over friendship. That must have been hard as hell for her to do. Contemplating should I call the cops? Turn in my friend. I would hope the friend would give people time to explain why and what it is. I’ve never heard of it either.
My daughter still has hers I’m Māori. And when I was a baby and mum took me to hospital once when I was sick the nurse accused her of abuse and wouldn’t let mum near me until the doctor came and knew what it was and apologised to mum.
When my oldest daughter was born, she had one. I wasn’t surprised, I had one when I was born (I’m Native American). I tried telling the doctor what it was, but they thought it was a bruise. This was a white doctor who primarily delivered white babies. She asked us to go to a dermatologist in a week to have them get it checked out. So we went to the dermatologist a week later because my wife wanted to make sure, it was our first child. The dermatologist looked at it, said he didn’t think it was a bruise but not sure what it was, again a white guy who primarily saw white patients. I suggested it was a Mongolian patch and that I had one when I was a kid. The dermatologist then pulls up google on his tablet in front of us, says oh yeah, that’s what it is. Then we had to pay $45 copay for the visit. Had to pay the doctor to tell him what it was, got to love it.
@@gamerwolffang2722 At that time we had a plan with blue cross blue shield. It was that much because the dermatologist a “specialist visit”. At least that is how the insurance company justified the cost of the co pay. This was about ten years ago

I got a daughter with a Haitian woman and our daughters mark is green and just about the size of a quarter on her butt. I had no idea before this. They said it was super common.... blew my mind.
@@shannonhondo260 I've always wondered but have never educated myself on the matter. My mother said mine faded away when I was about 3 to 4 years old. My sisters, 20s and 30s say they still have it. If I assume, I believe it's because we're a lighter shade of black. It's just am opinion !
Im white, my wife is northern chinese. We have 4 kids. Only the first one had "monholian spots" abd they faded. Had never heard of this til i saw the kid get born.
I married a Greek. When our son was born i asked the dr about a bluish mark just above his butt crack. The Dr said 'its where the tail fell off' Luckily i had a sense of humour 😊
This is definitely true for African Americans. My daughters backside and her sons backside was this way. Only it's not blue on darker skin, it's more greenish.
This is true. My light brights it was blue my rich colored baby was green. But that was only green when he started to gwt his color. All my babes came out pale as paper and stayed that way for a week to two weeks.
I am an asian father. First wife also asian. The white doc told us about the blus birthmarks when my first daughter was born, which shocked me 😂. Have a half white half asian son, also covered with blue birthmarks.
My little brother and sister both had the blue spots when they were babies. They have an interesting mix of heritage, my dad always said that they came from the Asian blood they carried. How to make sense for native Americans to carry a high percentage of it as we know they share a common ancestor with native Americans.
When I went to the doctor about the "bruise" on my daughters butt, she reported my husband as abusing her. I was molested as a child and have always had a 6th sense for abusers. I KNEW my husband didn't touch her, especially since she was constantly with me. Husband also is not inclined that way. They made my child undergo a rape test which caused her pain and is very invasive 😭😭 It torments me that they made me hold down my child so they could do it 😡😡 Turns out my baby wasn't being abused, and I wasn't allowed to sue the doctor. She never even apologised nor cared for the damage she caused.
Both my daughters were born with the Mongolian birthmark. It had to be immediately be put in their medical records , so that they wouldn’t think I was beating my kids.
I'm Native American and my daughter is 4 other heritages and she had 2 spots that looked like a big bruise and when ever I went to well baby visits with her pediatrician, they tried to call CPS on me ,saying I was abusing my daughter. I finally got fed up enough to have her Dr. Put it in her medical records that it was a birth mark and I had them make a copy of it so that anytime I got another accusation again and there many times I had to make sure I brought it with me to whip it out to prove my innocence.
@hexarkgaming4979 I don't know what state your from but any pediatrician knows exactly what that spot is. My kids had them they are natives. I Have 5 grandkids they had the spots. Never in my entire life have I ever heard of that. And we have a big family.
Guatemalan and Mexican. Had blue buns when I was little and a whit slime down my stomach. My kiddos are mixed Guatemalan, Mexican and Polish. My daughter takes after her father (Polish) and is white as snow but my boys take after me and both had blue buns when they were babies.
My best friend's son was born with this birth mark on his back and butt. She was Native American. U know I went to her funeral today ironically I see this video and her memory engulfs me.
I'm so very sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing that bcuz it's truly more evidence of how divine the human connection is, it supercedes even death when the soul of the deceased connects with living via that Divinity of Spirit†
My daughter was born with it. Pediatrician marked her chart so I wasn't ever charged with child abuse. She's Caucasian. Italian father. Myself being Polish, Irish, German and a wee bit of British.
We had a neighbor from China who’s little girl had those spots. The kindergarten knew but a parent saw them and called child services that showed up with police. They called their pediatrician who helpfully came immediately and cleared the situation!!!

My son has it. He's now 23, when he was 4 and 5 in daycare I had to explain what Mongolian spots were and of course they thought I was nuts and called CPS.🙄 Hopefully they learned and didn't accuse any more parents of wrong doing.
@duckyday1099 "They" was a ex girlfriend who I had dated in highschool 7yrs earlier which was literally across the street from the daycare her parents owned. 🤔 Idk..maybe revenge for dating their daughter. She was highly protected in highschool. Either way, I kept him in the daycare. There was never any hard feelings. Still this day I think it's the best daycare I've ever seen. They were absolutely born to do what they do.
Of all people, Daycare people should be educated on this before they are employed. People can cause so much trouble for others by calling CPS. Dometimes irs a good thing but with Blue Spot, it can wreck a home.
Also my daughters baby sitter. Almost got called CPS called on her. For beating the baby. The baby had the mongolian blue marks all over his body. Bruises change colors. But Mongolian birth marks do not change color. Hope this helps
Im African and all babies born in my family also have this bluish green birthmark. It's usually on the back butt and sometimes arms and thighs. It eventually fades at age 2-3.
my daughter was born with a mongolian spot, and she’s 1/4 asian, 1/4 carribean and 1/2 white. i never saw or heard about it before i had her, and was asked by her doctor if it was a birthmark. luckily she was familiar with what it was.
My adopted sister was born with this, she is part Māori and part English. I was told that because of the different type of blood caused this. It looked like bruising, my mother was reported to the doctor, luckily the Dr had enough knowledge about this and explained to the com plaintive the origins of Mongolian bruising
Mongolian Blue, Mongolian spots are ok terms. I've never heard it called Mongolian "bruising" because that is completely untrue and a negative label. It is not a bruise.
It’s Mongolian stain and it goes away. My mixed son had it and when I took him to ER for high fever the medic thought it was a bruise. I explained it to him and when I went back a different time he told me he looked it up 😊He learned something new!
I'm a 62 year old Native/Mexican woman. I still have my large blue birthmark on my back. My son and grandson still have theirs also. It doesn't always go away.
Hey! Apparently when I was born to a Mexican and a white there were Mongolian birth spots on my back, both legs, and both arms. Also covered in lanugo hair and my skull scraped on someone's pelvis during the emergency C-section because I was choking on my umbilical. My mother freaked out, thinking the doctors abused me when she saw, but after explaining she was just glad to have me alive. I was supposed to have extreme Asperger's based on chemical tests and my mother never gave up on me, even after my heart stopped inside her womb

All my kids had a blue ass. So many nurses thought we were beating our babies. Doc came in and told them they're n not beating their kids. We are native american
My mom told me that I was born with the same discoloration. So was my son. It was on his behind and his shoulder. I took him to the emergency room one night because he had an asthma attack. One nurse tried to have me arrested for child abuse. Luckily, there was an older nurse on duty that advised her that it was a birth mark. I don’t think she believed either of us.
I have eleven grandchildren, 5 of them were born with a "blue ass". As a young mum I saw this on several of my nieces and nephews although I and none of my five children were born with it. Our local doctors recognize and diagnose this condition as the Pacific Blue which dominated over 50% of Pacific Island births up to 30 years ago and it is still prevalent today. I am a Māori in Aotearoa N Z ❤😜
I didn't know and took my daughter to her pediatrician immediately after noticing it. She was fine. It went away in a few months. Shout out to the nurse who polity and kindly educated me on it.
I married an Arabian man from Jordan. I am a white female. Our two children had that “bruise” on their lower back and bottoms. I was so scared with the first child bc I didn’t know what it was and thought something was wrong. The pediatrician said that it’s common in children who have mixed races.
Hey I'm white and I have one😃 Maybe I should get my DNA checked to find out if I can get duel nationality for somewhere nice and hot like the Kalahari, and go live there instead of freezing my butt off in the UK🤔

1. The Mongols invaded 1/2 of Russia... and Finland. 2. Some Germans for religious reasons traveled to Russia and then back to Germany. 3. Some Germans have Swiss, Danish, and even Finnish ancestors. 4. After WW2 Stalin moved Mongolian troops into Berlin for mass rapes. There are a few reasons both anciently and historically why you would have certain Asiatic features. OH, and 5. Some middle ages skeletons of Tartars and spiral skulled brides from the Russian steppes, Scythian and Sarmatian brides were unearthed in Berlin... so there's that too.
I am in Canada, when I was living in a small town, my babysitter, a 50 year old white lady asked me if my daughter fell at home, I quickly realized she saw my daughter’s birth mark, I came home, downloaded and printed scientific information and handed to her.

Yup. My siblings and I all had it, and so did my kids. My white mother-in-law accused me of child abuse with my daughter because of it. She never believed me when I told her why she had it. My husband cut her off for years because of that. 😢 Ignorance is dangerous.
And I can see that happening. I am white, my kids are half Japanese. They had them too. To an untrained eye, they are might scare people who are unaware of what actual bruises look like. I teach in a Japanese daycare and they all have them, some are like tiger stripes all over the back, some on joints like ankles, elbows, knees and shoulders. I would never assume it was abuse even if I wasnt familiar with them because for one the things dont come and go till the child gets older. Also they arent in connection with anything else like a scratch or puncture or swollen. They are also consistantly the same color and dont usually have red or yellow hues like actual bruises and black and blue marks. Also as a kid I bruised like crazy from stuff I didnt even notice happened. like bumping into something like a table while walking or clipping a corner or something or falling too hard while sitting down, getting antsy while sitting too long and bumping into something. Actual abuse is also psychological as well as physical. Children will show fear at sounds, or punish themselves for making small mistakes, or behave in an out of control manner or get extremely clinging all of the sudden without being sick. YOu dont just assume a mark on the skin is abuse. Its scary that people jump to that conclusion so quickly.
Our daughter was born with not one but two, and the second one was HUGE on her arm area. And when the doctor came in and heard that some nurses had called it a Mongolian mark she was PISSED and called them out saying it’s a racist term and isn’t only any type of race that gets them. My husband nor I are Asian or have any Asian descent.
I was born in the early 60s, and had a mongolian spot. It was so rare in Maine at the time that the doctor called CPS on my mother (Japanese), while my dad (Navy) was out to sea. It was pretty scary for her, not having a good grasp on English, and facing the loss of her only child.
@@thetrippingdeity - I am not even sure it was called CPS in those days. But there was law enforcement involvement.

Mongolian Spots don’t come from Genghis Khan, that’s just a legend or myth, they happen when melanocytes get trapped in the deeper layers of your skin during fetal development. They’re temporary and go away in time. (But not always.)
The reason why Mongolian Spots are rarer on fairer skinned people is because fairer skinned people don’t have many melanocytes, and therefore don’t have the melanocytes to get trapped in the deeper layers of their skin, hence why it is rarer for them to get it.
Oh, and melanocytes are just the cells that give your skin it’s color, if you didn’t know.

😂😂
almost got turned in for beating a child that you brought the doctor..
sounds like the doctor jumped to some conclusions
I don't believe this.
Mongolian spots are taught in every medical and nursing schools in USA.
if the doctor did not know about it, then she should have his license revoked.
@@davidjacobs8558 I didn't believe it either!
All the stories on here are very suspect, especially the ones involving doctors not knowing about that temporary birthmark. 🙄🤔
The way that he just casually ask Joe. You didn’t have a blue ass? 😂
And Joe says I don't think so
Yeah that was so homie n comforting
That part was wholesome and endearing lol I like David
Let me see Joe ! I need to confirm 😂
I woulda been like: “nah but i’ve had blue balls”
My kids are half Chinese, 1/4 Danish 1/4 English, most of them were born with it. Here in Australia, my midwife’s knew straight away what it was and enlightened me, glad to know it doesn’t stay!
It does sometimes, but most of the time it goes away. My daughter is almost 6 and still has hers, but it is much lighter.
People really flexing having English or danish when they weren’t even white in the ancient world and certainly the native Americans weren’t what they are today looking so pale skinned. You people never seem to amaze me.
The way to tell the difference is to press the mark with your finger. Bruises don’t blanch or at least blanch very slightly. Mongolian spots do blanch when pressed. Regardless of what the current politically correct term is. I worked as a neonatal nurse for thirty one years and that’s how you can tell.
It's not just about political correctness. Many were under the false impression that these spots were only on Mongolian and Asian children. Political correctness has a purpose....
@@GoldenOobyYou can't claim it's not about being PC then immediately defend it being PC as having a purpose. Lol.
Pick your lane and stick to it.
They said “just about” which means they agreed it’s still PC but for more accurate medical information.
Unfortunately, common sense is not so common so you’ll have people taking the name “Mongolian Spots” literally assuming it only occur on Mongolian ppl.
@@GlacialScion Maybe you should realize multiple things can be true at once lol

I even called them “bruises” but I knew they weren’t! My dad I were almost arrested for child abuse in Indiana in 1986 when we took my younger son to the emergency room for vomiting. We are white but he is half Chinese. A Vietnamese doctor spoke up for us and explained they were only Mongolian spots.
And your Grandpa was in the Vietnam War slaughtering the ancestors of that Viet doctor, the one who saved your dad from jail. The irony. It's not your Grandpas fault though but just saying.

My wife is black so all of my kids are half black. They have Mongolian spots. We learned real quick to announce them to daycare providers because they will think you possibly are beating your kids.
My daughter is 29 when she was born one of the delivery nurses told us about her Mongolian spots that covered both buttocks and most of her right leg. The doctor also gave us a written and signed letter stating what it is…..because they had parents get CPS called on them reporting that they bruised and harmed their child when it was Mongolian spots. As my daughter’s skin tone darkened they faded away by the time she was four. I worked in child care for over twenty five years and educated teachers on the difference of a Mongolian spot and a bruise
Sounds like a good doctor
interesting, I am just finding out black people experience this.

It's formerly known as the Mongolian Blue Spot. The new term is called Congenital dermal melanocytosis. I am South Asian and myself and all my siblings were born with it. They usually disappear in early childhood. My two children were also born with the mark. It is common practice in the UK for the marks to be documented at birth during the baby check - this is due to the potential of being accused of beating your baby.
No, it's formerly know as "mongolian ass".
Hijacking this comment to ask this question:
why are they showing the corpse of a baby to illustrate this point?
@@medotaku9360 it's not a corpse. That is a newborn baby covered in the marks.
Mine didn't start fading till like around 3rd grade but I still got a blur dot on my thigh that hasn't gone away
@@chrisbiceps yeah it can stay in some people! You must be one of the rare ones!
I wonder if it’s related to the same thing that happens to Golden Retrievers that have “purple bellies” from about 10 weeks to 10 months. Apparently, it’s a good sign, saying their pigment is working.

Chinese people came from africa look it up
I'm black and my babies had this also
Mongolian spots have been the bain of many parents; it’s common in certain cultures, but because the majority culture does not know that, calling CPS has been common and parents have been jailed and separated from their children.
Many, but not all, hospitals now require documentation at birth of Mongolian spots in an effort to be proactive down the road, but there’s hiccups with that; someone has to read the documentation.
Medical cards should be given to parents with documentation not just of Mongolian spots, but other things such Osteogenesis Imperfecta where bones fractures are common and parents get accused of abuse
"Something Ghengis Khan did" is a pretty diplomatic way of saying the rape and ruin of 10s of thousands of women throughout the Asian and Eastern European medieval world.
It doesn’t make any sense that it would have to do with Genghis Khan when it’s also present in Native American peoples

My daughter had it. My wife is Poarch creek Indian. The doctor just told us it happens a lot with mixed race children. But he did say especially native Americans
I’m white and British and I was born with a blue arse. My mother is next to me and heard this video playing and she said both me and my 2 brothers were born this way and My Dad is White Scottish and My Mother White English so I’m half English, half Scottish.
As an RN in my labor and delivery days I saw plenty of Mongolian Spots.
Well, you should tell other doctors and nurses. I had a nurse try to tell me that I hurt my daughter because she had the mark on her bottom.
Same. And seen on a lot of white babies too. Mine included.
Was born with Mongolian spots as a kid on my back. I was called to the principals office & asked about being abused. I sat there confused until another teacher came in and told them it was Mongolian Spots and were very common among Native American kids. I was sent back to class confused but my grandmother & aunt were notified I was questioned. 😅

Looks like this man went to town on a bucket of raspberries.
😅 my very white girl friend babysat my infant when i had a doc appt. She refused to return my child and called child protective services.
I laughed, I explained, and patiently waited for authorities to confirm with her that they are indeed Mongolian spots. I was kind of appreciative that she was looking out for my child.
I couldn't blame her, I myself wouldn't know if I didn't have much younger siblings.
If only more had done 😮the same. Put the child’s welfare first over friendship. That must have been hard as hell for her to do. Contemplating should I call the cops? Turn in my friend. I would hope the friend would give people time to explain why and what it is. I’ve never heard of it either.

When my oldest daughter was born, she had one. I wasn’t surprised, I had one when I was born (I’m Native American). I tried telling the doctor what it was, but they thought it was a bruise. This was a white doctor who primarily delivered white babies. She asked us to go to a dermatologist in a week to have them get it checked out. So we went to the dermatologist a week later because my wife wanted to make sure, it was our first child. The dermatologist looked at it, said he didn’t think it was a bruise but not sure what it was, again a white guy who primarily saw white patients. I suggested it was a Mongolian patch and that I had one when I was a kid. The dermatologist then pulls up google on his tablet in front of us, says oh yeah, that’s what it is. Then we had to pay $45 copay for the visit. Had to pay the doctor to tell him what it was, got to love it.
It's not even funny how long it took to find a native comment, and sheesh where you at paying $45 copay (I don't pay Medicare & Presbyterian)
@@gamerwolffang2722 At that time we had a plan with blue cross blue shield. It was that much because the dermatologist a “specialist visit”. At least that is how the insurance company justified the cost of the co pay. This was about ten years ago

@@elfo8elfo that would have been nice but also I wanted it medically documented so that if any professional, including a doctor started to make assumptions regarding abuse, it was medically documented.

Did your kids birth marks go away? My kids did, but mine didn’t, it’s still on my butt till this day.
I am an asian father. First wife also asian. The white doc told us about the blus birthmarks when my first daughter was born, which shocked me 😂. Have a half white half asian son, also covered with blue birthmarks.
My little brother and sister both had the blue spots when they were babies. They have an interesting mix of heritage, my dad always said that they came from the Asian blood they carried. How to make sense for native Americans to carry a high percentage of it as we know they share a common ancestor with native Americans.
When I went to the doctor about the "bruise" on my daughters butt, she reported my husband as abusing her. I was molested as a child and have always had a 6th sense for abusers. I KNEW my husband didn't touch her, especially since she was constantly with me. Husband also is not inclined that way.
They made my child undergo a rape test which caused her pain and is very invasive 😭😭 It torments me that they made me hold down my child so they could do it 😡😡
Turns out my baby wasn't being abused, and I wasn't allowed to sue the doctor. She never even apologised nor cared for the damage she caused.
Omg that’s terrible! I’m sorry you went thru that.
Isn't it possible to sue them?
Oh my God...I am fuming 😭
Damn, if I had a daughter that did that I might have a hard time avoiding resentment after that.
Sounds like the doctor did s9mething much closer to grape than she alleged the husband had done
Both my daughters were born with the Mongolian birthmark. It had to be immediately be put in their medical records , so that they wouldn’t think I was beating my kids.
I'm Native American and my daughter is 4 other heritages and she had 2 spots that looked like a big bruise and when ever I went to well baby visits with her pediatrician, they tried to call CPS on me ,saying I was abusing my daughter. I finally got fed up enough to have her Dr. Put it in her medical records that it was a birth mark and I had them make a copy of it so that anytime I got another accusation again and there many times I had to make sure I brought it with me to whip it out to prove my innocence.
@@hexarkgaming4979it's so sad that it's even necessary to do that!

Of all people, Daycare people should be educated on this before they are employed. People can cause so much trouble for others by calling CPS. Dometimes irs a good thing but with Blue Spot, it can wreck a home.

Also my daughters baby sitter. Almost got called CPS called on her. For beating the baby. The baby had the mongolian blue marks all over his body. Bruises change colors. But Mongolian birth marks do not change color. Hope this helps
I’ve had to explain to doctors before when my daughter and I moved that they’ve been there since birth. They questioned the hell out of me.
Im African and all babies born in my family also have this bluish green birthmark. It's usually on the back butt and sometimes arms and thighs. It eventually fades at age 2-3.

My daughter is 2 and still has it! people often think it's a bruise as it goes up her back. I'm aboriginal canadian.
My adopted sister was born with this, she is part Māori and part English. I was told that because of the different type of blood caused this. It looked like bruising, my mother was reported to the doctor, luckily the Dr had enough knowledge about this and explained to the com plaintive the origins of Mongolian bruising
Mongolian Blue, Mongolian spots are ok terms. I've never heard it called Mongolian "bruising" because that is completely untrue and a negative label. It is not a bruise.
It’s Mongolian stain and it goes away. My mixed son had it and when I took him to ER for high fever the medic thought it was a bruise. I explained it to him and when I went back a different time he told me he looked it up 😊He learned something new!

Hey! Apparently when I was born to a Mexican and a white there were Mongolian birth spots on my back, both legs, and both arms. Also covered in lanugo hair and my skull scraped on someone's pelvis during the emergency C-section because I was choking on my umbilical. My mother freaked out, thinking the doctors abused me when she saw, but after explaining she was just glad to have me alive. I was supposed to have extreme Asperger's based on chemical tests and my mother never gave up on me, even after my heart stopped inside her womb
I had it when I was born, and it disappeared at 5 years old...I am native Amazigh (North African) moroccan... But I know that my grandmother has some central Asia ancestry... This part of family have east asian feature
All my kids had a blue ass. So many nurses thought we were beating our babies. Doc came in and told them they're n not beating their kids. We are native american
They probably bought their degrees off the innernetttt...
Those are dumb nurses. That's a basic thing we learn about 😂
You’re Mongolian bro
They should have known that, I thought it was from the doctors hands..
Yeah born with it and it staying as a birthmark are two different things..
My mom told me that I was born with the same discoloration. So was my son. It was on his behind and his shoulder. I took him to the emergency room one night because he had an asthma attack. One nurse tried to have me arrested for child abuse. Luckily, there was an older nurse on duty that advised her that it was a birth mark. I don’t think she believed either of us.
Mongolian sports are documented when the child is born.
I have eleven grandchildren, 5 of them were born with a "blue ass". As a young mum I saw this on several of my nieces and nephews although I and none of my five children were born with it. Our local doctors recognize and diagnose this condition as the Pacific Blue which dominated over 50% of Pacific Island births up to 30 years ago and it is still prevalent today. I am a Māori in Aotearoa N Z ❤😜
I didn't know and took my daughter to her pediatrician immediately after noticing it. She was fine. It went away in a few months.
Shout out to the nurse who polity and kindly educated me on it.
I married an Arabian man from Jordan. I am a white female. Our two children had that “bruise” on their lower back and bottoms. I was so scared with the first child bc I didn’t know what it was and thought something was wrong. The pediatrician said that it’s common in children who have mixed races.
1st child had it as baby was mixed. It was the same response from the midwife.
That's not mixed race. Arabians and Europeans are Caucasoid.
Am black South African and all my kids were born like that.
Hey I'm white and I have one😃
Maybe I should get my DNA checked to find out if I can get duel nationality for somewhere nice and hot like the Kalahari, and go live there instead of freezing my butt off in the UK🤔
Does it go away with time?
In most cases it does

1. The Mongols invaded 1/2 of Russia... and Finland. 2. Some Germans for religious reasons traveled to Russia and then back to Germany. 3. Some Germans have Swiss, Danish, and even Finnish ancestors. 4. After WW2 Stalin moved Mongolian troops into Berlin for mass rapes. There are a few reasons both anciently and historically why you would have certain Asiatic features. OH, and 5. Some middle ages skeletons of Tartars and spiral skulled brides from the Russian steppes, Scythian and Sarmatian brides were unearthed in Berlin... so there's that too.
@@Nationindistress2024 it’s not related to Asian genetics. It’s just due to when your body has more pigment in general, which then collects like that
I am in Canada, when I was living in a small town, my babysitter, a 50 year old white lady asked me if my daughter fell at home, I quickly realized she saw my daughter’s birth mark, I came home, downloaded and printed scientific information and handed to her.

he will just say "We are just idiots talking shit, why so serious" to deflect any criticism
I think you're overreacting... It's just a podcast in which people debate all kinds of topics. And in his defense, he never claims any of it to be 100% truth. So maybe stop taking it that far... Sheesh
@ninelives1012 Ofcourse he doesn't claim that any of it is 100% truth. Did you not read what I said? He doesn't know enough of anything To say one way or the other. And it's the worst debating format that I've ever seen because of that. His guests can make any claims they want and if he doesn't know enough about the topic then he just says "huh interesting".
@@HumanoidMachinewell that’s the thing…it’s not a debate format. It’s a conversation. So chill mister arbiter of truth. It’s everyone’s responsibility to do their own homework anyway regardless of the credentials of who’s talking.
@@SoulCrapper Then why are they debating in a format that isn't meant for it? We're not in a pre-2010 society where misinformation and disinformation are negligible. It is now very detrimental and making it difficult for everyone to actually do their own homework. I'm allowed to criticize and call out bullshit and if you want to be a dismissive clown then that's your prerogative. But I don't have to put up with it. I don't understand why you even care enough to respond. Are you afraid that my criticism will hurt his viewership or something?
My youngest was born with it... he takes after my wife... my wife was adopted, and she's a bit unique in her appearance, so I've always wondered what all her genetic/ethnic makeup was...
This gives me a good clue.
They’re called Mongolian spots. I am a black American, and my daughter has the same thing.
Me too, and all nine of my children were born with the Mongolian spots. All my grandchildren had the Mongolian spots also
My daughter was born with this. She is half Ecuadorian.
Native American here Indigenous to Arizona and yes, we are born with blue spots on our back and butt. My husband still has a small blue spot on his butt that never faded away. Most of the time the spot will fade away as the child gets older.
Joes like, "cant remember"😭
I am African American and my oldest son was born with it... its called "Mongolian spot" look it up
Just asking why are she lieing
@@user-mf6yb3vx7h Black Women wanna be mixed soooo bad. This is just folklore and misinformation
Both my Sons were born with them....soo.
I am black and my son was born with it too.
Yup. My baby has one. Now she’s two it has faded a little bit still noticeable
Ghenghis Khan took the phrase "fuck em all" literally to heart
Yes he did.
Lol that comment made me laugh like hell
All of my family have this blue spot😭
I’m Native American and black and daughter was born with one. I freaked out when I saw it because I thought she was hurt, but I was told it’s normal and it would fade over time.
You could tell Joe literally anything and he'd still be like "yoah that's amazing, I'm now going to regurgitate this to everyone as if I'm the keeper of all things true"
Ppl of color. It's called a Mongolian spot. It fades with time.
I'm white and all my kids have them. What does being colored have to do with it?
@@pvt.reefer6163because it’s typically associated with poc, this doesn’t mean that white folks can’t experience it. Don’t get triggered because race is a part of people’s lives.
@pvt.reefer6163 My Caucasian children as well.
It's called Mongolian birthmark, because it has something to do with "Mongolian race", not Dschingis Khan. But in our genes deep down we're all more or less mixed.🎉

It hurts how many ppl don’t get this reference cheers mate
“Why didn’t you show us your ass before”🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
"why didn't you moon me earlier B?"
Mongolian spot. Its BEAUTIFUL
Yup. My siblings and I all had it, and so did my kids. My white mother-in-law accused me of child abuse with my daughter because of it. She never believed me when I told her why she had it. My husband cut her off for years because of that. 😢
Ignorance is dangerous.
Scandalous details
That old dragon hated you from day one.
They document Mongolian spots at child birth.
And I can see that happening. I am white, my kids are half Japanese. They had them too. To an untrained eye, they are might scare people who are unaware of what actual bruises look like. I teach in a Japanese daycare and they all have them, some are like tiger stripes all over the back, some on joints like ankles, elbows, knees and shoulders. I would never assume it was abuse even if I wasnt familiar with them because for one the things dont come and go till the child gets older. Also they arent in connection with anything else like a scratch or puncture or swollen. They are also consistantly the same color and dont usually have red or yellow hues like actual bruises and black and blue marks. Also as a kid I bruised like crazy from stuff I didnt even notice happened. like bumping into something like a table while walking or clipping a corner or something or falling too hard while sitting down, getting antsy while sitting too long and bumping into something. Actual abuse is also psychological as well as physical. Children will show fear at sounds, or punish themselves for making small mistakes, or behave in an out of control manner or get extremely clinging all of the sudden without being sick. YOu dont just assume a mark on the skin is abuse. Its scary that people jump to that conclusion so quickly.
@MagMar-kv9ne Can't blame here . I want grandchildren that looks like me .
“You didn’t have a blue ass?!” 😂😊
😂😂😂😂😂❤
"I don't think so" 🤔
"ok lemme check"
Our daughter was born with not one but two, and the second one was HUGE on her arm area. And when the doctor came in and heard that some nurses had called it a Mongolian mark she was PISSED and called them out saying it’s a racist term and isn’t only any type of race that gets them. My husband nor I are Asian or have any Asian descent.

Midichlorians are one of the worst, post original trilogy additions.
I was born in the early 60s, and had a mongolian spot. It was so rare in Maine at the time that the doctor called CPS on my mother (Japanese), while my dad (Navy) was out to sea. It was pretty scary for her, not having a good grasp on English, and facing the loss of her only child.
Cps for a new born?
@@thetrippingdeity - I am not even sure it was called CPS in those days. But there was law enforcement involvement. It was the obstetrician that had to teach the pediatrician about the Mongolian spot.
Edit - Like I said, I was born in the early 60s. My mom had a c-section, and they kept women in the hospital for 4-6 weeks at the time for that. I think my mom said that it was at a regular pediatrician visit, so it must have been more than 4-6 weeks at the time.
@@donnalynch5117 ah I see
I have never heard of this!!
@@alyciamarie4163 - My sons are 75% Caucasian, and 25% Japanese. They had small ones, about the size of fist over their tailbone, whe they were born. And they all have the ability to tan really well.
