Raynauds occurs in autoimmune people when the nerves that control the blood supply to the hands and feet "misfire" and tell those blood vessels to close down.

There are many thyroid diseases, some are autoimmune like Raynaud's. Frequently if a person has one autoimmune disease, they have others. However, thyroid and Raynaud's are not directly linked.

How rare is it for a baby to have raynauds disease?

Raynauds syndrome usually occurs from about the age of 15. However I am sure there are some exceptions as i got it when i was 13. Raynauds is a heriditary incurable disease. there are two types: primary and secondary. primary is when you just have raynauds on its own. secondary, however can be a little more serious as it is caused by an underlying disease. i would recommend taking your baby to see a doctor as i would suspect it has secondary raynauds if it has raynauds at all.
