      I don't think they've changed but I'm not sure. They just seem irregular. I've not paid attention to them like I should, unfortunately. The only reason I had the first two checked was because my mom was diagnosed with uveal melanoma a year ago and her scans caught thyroid cancer. Because of this her doctors said her kids were at a higher risk. Thank you so much for your response! I'm really trying not to be paranoid but I'm having a hard time. 

      Also, are baseline pics something I should do or something the doctors will do?
