Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Blood in diaper this morning.

This morning DD had some blood in her diaper after pooping.  She did have a hard nugget poop and was really trying hard to poop for a good 5 minutes.  I know the blood is probably from trying to poop a hard poop, but it is still disturbing to see that.  The Pedi office opens in about 10 minutes and I am going to call to find out if he wants me to bring her in or not.  Has anyone had this happen and what did you do for your lo??

  • It could be fissures from pushing hard.Or it could be a food intolerance/allergy.The doctor can test you for the latter.

    I'd give her prunes or pear/pear juice while you're waiting to see your doctor.

    Btw, your girls are soooo cute!

    Thanks!!  I actually talked to the nurse at the Pedi's office a few minutes ago and she said to give her some prune juice over the next couple days to soften her stool.  She said she could have a small tear from pushing really hard since her poop was hard.

  • Poor thing. I don't think it is terribly uncommon. Prune or apple juice! GL.

  • We had a scare on Tuesday.  LO had diarrhea Sunday/Monday.  I called the 24 hour on-call nurse hotline and they told me it was most likely from the antibiotics he had just been put on...it was a side effect. LO was happy for the first time in three days, so he was fine.  I was relieved. Is she on antibiotics?
