Is It Normal For A Very Old Mole To Grow After Pregnancy?

Uhm, I have had a mole on my back my entire life. It has always been flat and brown. I got pregnant and had a baby at 25 weeks. My mole has grown since pregnancy to be squishy and the color it once had is now merely a dot on top of it. Is this normal?
