Has she been eating anything different or is she constipated? DS when through a phase of being constipated, but has also had a bit of blood when he had typical toddler backdoor trots. It can be a fissure in the anus sometimes, which is fairly common. Think you need to check with nursery and ask for details, how much blood etc.

just spoke to the nursery, she was constipated so little less worried after your comments. Thank you.

DD1 gets this when she gets constipated
if it was really hurting she would have been screaming
i don't think it's anything to worry about - yet - just keep an eye and check her poo next time. Also might be worth having a look to see if there is a little cut there. If so it will heal on it's own if she doesn't get constipated. If her poos are hurting her, try giving her lactulose to soften them up.
