Hi  Jacqui!

Could the blood, or at least some of it, be coming from  your
breast(s)? Has the baby any other symptoms that could point  to
possible allergy?


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
i don't have any indication that it could be coming from my breasts - i've  
seen no traces in my milk the few times i've seen it spit up, i have no pain or 
 plugged ducts or latching issues/trauma... and i'm nursing 2 toddlers 
besides  the baby so i'm definitely not getting overly engorged besides the night 
milk  came in on day 3 postpartum.
 
he's had no other symptoms of allergy that i've seen at all. but then again  
would i be looking for the same symptoms in a baby about a week old as say a 6 
 month old?  there's no fussiness at all, no gas, no spitting up, no runny  
nose, no unusual rashes, no foamy/slimy stools. just very very frequent  black 
stools and a family hx of his father and the older brother he most  resembles 
having dairy intolerance as well. so far he's a very easy, seemingly  happy 
baby.
