Hi, my daughter who is 1Year & 9months old is passing mucus blob before passing gas n potty. She goes ones in 3days for pooping. She is having problem from last 2weeks. She is teething also. Generally she eats dry items like parathas n puris , also some time dal rice n suji upma. She drinks less water. She is still on breastfeeding. She is  not doing very moist stools. What could be the possible reason n treatment. Iam attaching a picture also of mucus blob. Thanks.

Its because of hard stool....as she wont pass stool regularly.. Give plenty of liquid orally and high fiber diet which makes stool soft... Also you can use stool softner like lactulose for few weeks to empty her colon...
Next Steps
