A member asked:

My 4mo hastrouble poopin. whn she does it hurts her cus she cries..i breastfed hr and give her water ..makes it runny and her bottom is red?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Issues: She might have a yeast infection on her bottom. Try some desitin (zinc oxide diaper cream) and call the pediatrician Monday. You have to be careful in this situation because babies can become easily dehydrated. If very concerned call your pediatricians office today as someone is likely on call.
