A member asked:

My one year old baby is stooling and has mucus in it.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Can be normal: Mucus in the stool can be a normal variant of healthy stool. Many infections can cause mucus as well but this is usually accompanied by diarrhea. If you notice that the mucus is continuous or it is associated with blood then take your baby to their primary care provider for evaluation.
