You can start from your face downwards trying to relax every muscle as much as you can. I have felt tingling feeling in my leg or sometimes just in my feet. I use to then keep my leg in a position which is comfortable.  But now I feel nothing even if I sit cross legged longer than before. Its about practice I guess. But what is important for meditation in my opinion is to keep your mind still irrespective of how you sit.
