    Sometimes the girls will get clammy hands and feet and i don't know what causes it? Do you guys get them??

    They feel normal on their arms and legs but it is just the ends?!

    DD is super clammy! DS is all nice and soft and dry. She's just a sweaty little girl! :D

    Both of my babies have clammy hands and feet almost all of the time. We live in a super dry climate, too. Weird!

    Both of mine are clammy, too. I'm not sure what it's from. Maybe partly from putting their hands in their mouths all the time.

    Yep, mine have it too. I thought it was just because my hands and feet are like that, I've always had that problem. But maybe it's something that goes away seeing how many other babies have it.

    One of mine has clamy feet only. I figured she took after her father and was just blessed with the sweaty feet, lol.

    Cold or clammy hands and feet are a result of poor circulation in the extremities. The majority of the blood will flow to the vital organs including the brain, leaving the areas of the body furthest from these with the least amount of blood required. Covering the feet should correct this, since most of the body's heat is expelled through the head and feet, lowering thier core temperature, and keeping the majority of the bloodflow in the trunk of the body instead of flowing everywhere evenly.
