Just wiped my 10month old babys bum after a very soft poo, the first time i wiped there was a few specks of blood then the second time, quite abit more. Do i need to call doctors and worry or is this normal sometimes?

We had this with dd. 6 hours in A&E to be told that it's normal.

I had this when u was a baby and ended up having life saving surgery. Better safe than sorry. Ask about intestinal intersussception.

I would go over what they have eaten and if nothing obvious springs to mind then call the docs. Better safe than sorry if you can't rule out a dietary reason.

Probably an anal fissure very common. It was def fresh blood not old blood?
