Continue nursing: Continue nursing, but if the baby is formula fed, there may be a milk intolerance. Discuss possible causes with your Pediatrician. Usually if the growth and abdominal examination are normal, the symptoms are not as concerning. The stool may be sent for further analysis including detection of blood in the stool.
