Lips turning blue

[Guest guest]

Edie-

I read your post about your daughters lips turning blue before she

fevers. Our daughter does the same thing. Her hands, feet and face

also turn blue. Our doctors have all said. " some times when an infant

or toddler is fevering there extremeties will turn blue while their

body is fighting the fever at their core " . I've always pointed out

to them that she doesn't have much of a fever if a fever at all when

she is blue. But once the blue goes away, her fever spikes up to 103

or 105. They really have always just brushed it off like they had

the answer. It doesn't feel like the " right " answer for me. We've

taken pictures of it and shown the doctors- they freak when they see

what it looks like with her dark purble lips and bluish face half way

through her cheeks. They've sent us home with a sat monitor- but

she's always fine.

I think I read about one other little boy who turns blue. Its odd

and its scary, but I don't believe its a virus or their bodies

fighting a fever that isn't even there yet.

Thoughts?
