I have this long blue prominent vein that runs down my thigh. Could it be a varicose vein? (Photo)

I had a baby 9 months ago and only noticed it around 3 months postpartum, but looking back at pictures from before it seems this vein has always been prominent but now it kind of sticks out more when I stand. It doesn't seem varicosed but rather just long, blue and slightly sticking out. When I'm cold it disappears and when I raise my leg is also goes away. Is this a varicose vein? I also have about 15 lbs of baby weight to lose.
