I just changed Aidens nappy after he did a poo, and i noticed that he had blood in his poo. After a closer inspection, i realised that the blood was actually coming from around his 'hole' and that there where lots of blisters on his bottom, like i guess the radius of a somewhere between a 20 & 50c peice. And some bits where the top layer of skin was gone.
Now, i have started using a different nappy, and he has never had nappy rash. I am assuming that it possibly is not nappy rash, because it was sorta all in the one spot.
This is the first time i have seen blood, but, not the first poo in the new nappy, so, i am counting it out.
Could it be due to teething? I have heard it can make the wee more acidic, but, can it do the same to poo?
Could it be his food. He had some brocolli and zucchini for the first time last night, and had some again tonight. There was no problems last night (although he was very unsettled, which we put down to teething), but, this was a poo after dinner, so, i am thinking maybe that might of been what caused it.
So, any other suggestions as to what it could be? I feel so bad. His poo doesnt seem to smell much, so, i really am not sure if perhaps even he was sitting in it for abit, which makes me feel like such a bad mummy![]()
