Blue Legs

I've noticed a couple of times that DD's legs get a bluish tint to them. One day they were really blue and we thought her carseat straps were too tight. We fixed that and a few days later I noticed the same problem, just not as bad, we then loosened her diapers (we use fuzzi bunz) which seems to help, but when we mentioned it to our MW today she seemed really concerned and said that even if circulation was being cut off by diapers or anything else she shouldn't be turning blue like that. My question is, has anybody else experienced anything like this? I'm not sure what to do. It really doesn't seem to bother her and she is thriving otherwise, it's just her coloration (doesn't seem to affect her feeling or ablility to move)

Any insight would be great, TIA

 

 

Re: Blue Legs

  • Are her feet blue too?

    Massage might help.

  • You might repost this on the 0-6 board. Someone was talking about this happening to their Lo the other day. I think she was going to call her pedi.

    Yes feet and legs, massage seems to help get things going again, I'm just concerned it's a bigger problem. I'm calling the pedi in the morning. We're headed out of town Wednesday morning so hopefully we can get in tomorrow.

  • Fingers crossed that you are able to get in and it turns out okay!
