Bruising from Exersaucer???

Chloe has bruises along the the inside of her legs on both sides, right where her leg meets her torso (the crease). My MIL pointed them out to me when I picked them up tonight. Neither of us had noticed them until she saw them today when she brought a new lamp into their nursery at her house and it lit up the room more.

Chloe loves to "bounce" up and down in the exercauser while her brother is in the jumperoo bouncing and we are wondering if she is bouncing so hard that it is bruising her there. Anyone else had this happen??

I definitely think she could get bruising if she is bouncing nard enough. Can you try putting a soft towel under her so that it protects her skin against the thinner fabric around her legs???

 

Any sort of repetative impact can cause bruising even if she's not bouncing very hard, just doing it alot.

I'll tell you a story: When I was in college I worked in a deli. One night I was getting undressed to go to bed when I noticed I had a bruise on my thigh. Over the next week the bruise got worse and worse and I had no idea where it came from. I mean, this thing was really purple! Turns out there was a bolt sticking out from the counter right in front of the scale where I stood about 40 - 50 times per day and every time I would bump into the bolt. Not hard enough that it hurt, but over the course of about a week I ended up with a really nasty bruise. We covered up the bolt and the bruise healed up.

So, she may not be bouncing very hard, it just may be the repetative nature of it.

 

Only thing we had gotten from the exersaucer when my DS bounces like crazy is poopie all the way up the back
