Hi. i think my 6 week old baby has internal hemorrhoids. there is/was small amount of blood in almost every stool today. she does not seem ill so i don't think it is an infection? should i go to a doctor?

YES!: You should take your infant to their Dr ASAP! Any blood in the stool for an infant this young can indicate that there is a problem. Internal hemorrhoids do not occur in infants, but it could be something else.
