A. If your 5-day-old baby spits up a tiny amount of blood and you have cracked nipples, it's likely the blood is from your nipples and not from the baby. This can happen when the baby swallows a little blood while feeding. While it’s usually harmless, it’s important to: Treat your cracked nipples – apply purified lanolin cream, keep nipples dry between feeds, and ensure proper latch to prevent further damage. Monitor the baby – if the baby appears unwell, has blood in stool or continues spitting blood, consult a pediatrician to rule out any issues. Use expressed milk – if feeding is too painful, you can express milk to allow healing while continuing breastfeeding. If the bleeding continues from your nipples or baby’s spit-up increases or looks bright red, seek medical advice promptly.
