Purple Toes

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months
My daughter loves to sit with her left leg bent behind her (pictured). I just chalked it up to flexibility. Heck, I USED TO be flexible! The other day, DH text me thinking her Capri tights were too tight cuz her toes were turning purple. I said fine, take em off (but didn't really think they were too tight). This morning after sitting like that for a while I noticed her toes were VERY purple (pictured)!! So now I'm worried. I mean obviously they're turning purple because the blood circulation is being cut off, but is that normal?!

TIA! Also going to post in Sept13

    Is it just on one leg after she's been sitting that way? Or both legs regardless of how she has been sitting?

    Just the one leg. And it's always that leg that she has back - the right is always straight.

    I'm NOT a doctor but I would think it's just poor baby circulation from the way she is sitting and if you see toes turning purple then change her position so she gets the blood flowing again.
    I wouldn't think its a big deal as long as it goes back to normal after a little but and she isn't in pain.
