They go normal after 10 mins or so, but quite often they look blue and are cold to the touch.DS is 16 mths.

TIA

is this a new thing? is he ill at all? does he seem in discomfort?

dd2 had this too when she was younger, together with blue fingertips. It's called peripheral cyanosis (if you fancy a google - nothing scary will come up)
apparently it's completely normal and simply a result of slightly sluggish circulation.

Geekgirl is probably right, but I'd want the GP to check him out if I were you.

No he isn't ill or anything, just every now and then i notice it, they look blue and when i feel, they are cold too.

Wasn't sure if i should go GP or not, or if it was normal-ish.

Thanks for that geekgirl, probably is that.
