Baby poop with tiny blood
Hi Doctor
I have 8 month baby .. he pooped 10 times yesterday but t was not watery .. next mornign he pooped again but spotted tiny blood in it ..
What could be the cause !? I have fed new food recently poha porridge and added a new spice shallots in kitchadi? Also have given him increased amount of chikko fruit comparatively than earlier days ..
Since I'm nursing him as well and recently I had mayonese..
Could you advise is this because of food allergy or something else ?

He probably has a stomach infection due to which his stool frequency increased and hence there may have been some friction around the rectum or anus which caused the bleed.
Kindly consult a pediatrician if this recurs or if the baby continues to poop more than normal
