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- give soft fibrous diet.Try to add some veggies or fruits in baby food preparation to soften stool and easy to evacuate. give sipes of water after each solid feed. Give Tummy Massage in clockwise direction.

A. as you start with cerelac it is recommended that start with wheat flavor as it is easy to digest as of rice cerelac baby may get constipation issue.. avoid giving.. keep baby well hydrated.. give papaya.. little blood in stool may be because of tear in the anal area as of pressure.. you can use coconut oil or rash cream on the anal area..
