6mo foot rubbing

Over the past month or so my 6mo has developed a habit of rubbing her feet together really forcefully, mainly when she's tired. It doesn't seem enjoyable for her. Has anyone else experienced similar and worked out what it is about?

Yes DS2 used to do it. Don't know why. He used to enjoy having his feet rubbed with the palm of my hand too. Not tickling but firm rubbing all over with the palm of my hand. He used to relax and go to sleep. Its basic reflexology.

I love to rub my feet together before I sleep! Quite vigorously!

I will try that, thank you. She's starting to do it when she's feeding too and gets so aggravated at times she cries. Strange.
