A. Hello, 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. Another common cause of blood in the stools of infants is food allergies- Try to rule out allergent food substance and avoid give it. Occasionally, blood in the stool may be due to breastmilk oversupply. If mom has a cracked nipple or other bleeding, then baby may ingest some blood from mom (this is not harmful to baby), which may show up in baby’s stool. It may be lactose intollrance. Talk to baby’s doctor if there is blood in baby’s stool, but whether or not this requires an emergency visit would depend upon your child’s behavior.

A. nothing to be worried about it could be due to constipation so I would suggest that you should give your baby lukewarm water to drink and make your baby sit in a tub filled with lukewarm water and check with the doctor also
