4mo - blood in poo

Following a week of much more frequent, much runnier poos, DD is now producing poo with blood in it - or rather, blood-coloured mucussy streaks. Any advice?

Morning,

My baby had this too, I phoned my health visitor and they said to get her seen by the doctor to be on the safe side. The doctor said nothing to worry about but right thing to do. I would consider phoning NHS direct just to be sure? If you can, keep the nappies (lovely!) to show doctor if needed. If it's just streaked she has probably just got a small tear or ruptured a small blood vessel. Try not to worry but phone NHS direct to put your mind at rest.
