3year old with Veins!

[Melissa1983]

Just wondering if i should be worried. I noticed the other day Mikayla has veins all over her chest and stomach.. I know they should be there, but you can really see them. Abby hasn't got them.

Should i take her to the doctors to get it checked out?

Is she really skinny or have pale skin? I have seen it before, my little brothers chest veins are so noticeable...we are all different:) If shes normal and healthy then I'm sure theres nothing to worry about:)

I think you will find that some kids have close to the surface veins other's don't I wouuldn't be too worried about it, but I am not a dr or anything perhaps someone else has some advice!

LOL I work in the gym industry and we think its a good thing to be able to see your veins LOL....means your blood is pumping and you have low body fat;) hehe

yeah she is pretty skinny, but has alittle belly. Her skin is pretty pale too. She is very healthy, and a very active 3 year old. Might see how she goes.. Thank you for your advice

Im sure shes fine:) You might find that as Abby gets older and thins out too (as they all do) that she does in fact have them as well:)

Hannah has them too - I never really thought about it though.

But if it means she has low body fat then that's wrong for her - she has daddy's pot belly!!;)
