2023-11-01 07:04:42
I have a 4 month old daughter. She is on formula milk from day 1 & doing absolutely fine. 1 month back I did found 1-2 threads of blood in her stool so did stool routine & occult blood. Occult blood traces was seen. I repeated the test after 1 month, in that occult blood was absent but RBCs 0-1 was present. She is achieving all her milestone & her wt is also about 6.4 kg at 4 month. Is there anything to worry about
