My 14 month old son's bowel movements have been very hard and come out in little pellets with a red tinge. i don't believe it's blood but i'm not sure. he's also not unhappy or uncomfortable i'm just concerned.?

Call MD: Sounds like simple constipation for which MiraLAX (polyethylene glycol) would be helpful, but call your pediatrician.
