Straining to poop, small hemorrhoids, and other minor conditions may cause blood streaks in a baby's stool. More serious issues — such as bleeding in the intestines — may also cause bloody stool, however. A common cause of blood in an infant's stool is a slight anal tear (fissure) from baby straining with the passage of the stool. The small amount of blood from an anal fissure tends to look like a red streak on the outside of the stool. Another common cause of blood in the stools of infants is food allergies.
