Baby constipated & black specks in poop

2025-09-19 09:05:12
9 month Baby is constipated from few weeks after starting solids and there are black specs in poop. I am feeding her formula milk, breastfeeding and other solids like wheat porridge, daal rice, dry fruit powder, rava, poha, chiku etc. Today i could see a small light red dot on her diaper after constipated poop. What it could be, should i consult regular pediatrician immediately ?
