Can a 9mth Old Get Hemmroids?? Posted: 07-12-07 06:14am
Just wondering I am babysitting my friends
kids and her son was crying when he was
pooping and i changed him and there is
blood in his poop, its bright red and im
sure that its blood its not alot but
enough to notice. I am saving the diaper
for her to see when she gets back. But im
guessing she should take him to the dr
right? ive never seen blood in poop in an
infant and just wondered what could cause
it.

What was his stool like? Was he somewhat
constipated? If he was it may have been
uncomfortable to poo because it was too
solid or something. And if it was readlly
solid and he tried to pass some that was
to big he could have made a little tear
around the hole and caused it to bled. I
know that happened when with Brayden when
he got constipated from the change to
formula..
