Accepted Answer

recently this happened with my 6 month old baby girl. 
I went to the pediatrician, he prescribed evict syrup once a day. he asked to give 7.5 ml but I just gave 3 ml. plus if the anal region is very sore, apply SUFRATE cream, around the anal region. This is was medicine part.

now diet:
please try giving only liquids to your baby. like daal ka pani.rice ka paani(cooked), pureed apple, papaya. 
and only breast milk or formula milk atleast for next 30 days.

my baby stools became normal after 2-3 days and also make sure the baby sits in squats position while passing stools, this helps passing the stools well.

I would recommend you to please try to visit your pediatrician at is not because of constipation it is also because of infection that the baby might be having blood in the motion apart from that I would recommend you to put oil in the rectum and give honey with warm water to the child
