I am the same way. I also have a 2 year old and they all seemed to spread, darken, and increase while I was pregnant and haven't stopped since. Your hormones play a big part in that. I had a small freckle on my hand that turned into a mole and grew rapidly, I had a biopsy done and it came back normal (blue nevus).
I was diagnosed w/ SCC (skin cancer) and my dermatologist told me I'm at higher risk of developing melanoma, in the future, b/c I'm "spotted". Unless they are changing in shape, I wouldn't worry too much.

Freckles are a sign you skin is under stress from solar radiation but do not mean you have cancer. Wear sun screen and make use of hats. Lots of moles mean you are more likely to have some kind of skin cancer at some point in your life but does not mean you have cancer now. Watch to see if you moles change, become larger than about the size of a pencil erase or if they are jagged around the edge or if they vary in color within the mole. Any of those things can be a sign of skin cancer and should be evaluated by a dermatologist.

No freckles and moles are not a sign of cancer unless the mole changes color or shape etc.
