If you ever feel the baby is not moving their legs, the legs become bluish or cold to touch, call your pediatrician. Wishing your family the best.

Maybe: An infant might stiffen his/her legs if angry or upset, and this would be normal. However, stiff legs could also, rarely, be a sign of seizures or a muscle or nerve disorder. Talk to your baby's health care provider about this question.
