My son had them when he was born as well. Our doctor told us it was because
a baby's skin is really thin that's why they're visible. Perfectly normal.
They faded with time anyway. Nothing to worry about.

Just curious...since birth, Rachel has had red veins on her eyelids. The
doctors have never mentioned them so they must be normal. I've not been
arund many newborns and have never paid attention....is this common? When
does it go away? I looked closely today and it's just red veins, all over
her eyelids..........
