Blood in poop

Dd just had a pretty mucusy diaper with some blood : ( Her poops have been greenish brown for a few weeks now too. I have an oversupply at night/in the morning, but not really the rest of the day. Anyone else experience this? She has her 4 month check-up on Monday. Should I schedule something sooner?

    I never realized it could be from oversupply.  I have had that, but I think it's under control.  It never crossed my mind when I found blood in her stool.  The doctor had me cut out dairy especially after it continued on and off for several

    We went to the doctor yesterday and I am now cutting out dairy and soy. I think it isn't common for oversupply to cause this. I think oversupply issues just mean that you might have the fat in the milk less evenly distributed which means that it will be d
