A member asked:
My 2 month old baby had a poops diaper with streaks of red blood. he is breastfed, and mom has noticed an oversupply. anything to worry about?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Visible blood in a baby's stool is a cause for concern. Sometimes, they can feed from a mother's cracked or bleeding nipples but swallowed maternal blood should be digested. Visible blood is a sign of lower intestinal or anal/rectal bleeding and should be evaluated by a qualified professional right away.
