We've noticed that Leo's toes are getting quite clubbed. When he was newborn, his toenails were quite concave. now they are very convex and they hump in the middle of the nail and then roll down over the top of the toe (makes it quite tricky to trim them as they're hugging the curve of the toe). I also noticed over the last few days that his skin on his toes and some of his finger tips seems to be peeling on the pads (almost as if he's touched/stepped on something hot). I'm imagining that these are signs of cyanosis...........anybody else experienced this, and does it recede after surgery? Also, those of you with pre-op babies.... are they really really sweaty at the moment? I'm trying to work out how much is 'weather related' and how much is Leo starting to show us the signs....
