Question

When my newborn was 23 days old, their stool contained blood. What should I do? The baby cries for a while every time they relax on the bed before falling asleep after drinking formula milk. Their stool contains milk curds, and there has been a small amount of blood in their stool for two consecutive days.

Answer

Based on the description, it is recommended to take the child to the hospital for testing to determine if there is an intestinal infection. If there is no intestinal infection, it is usually considered an absorption issue and it may be necessary to try a different formula milk.
