Blood in baby stool
My baby is 4.5 months old. Often (app. 10 days once) she is having blood in her poop, along with mucus. She didn't cry, and was active as usual. I have consulted the pediatrician, he gave antibiotic drops and probiotics. After the course of medication it still returns. It's bright red blood mixed with stool, along with mucus. Sometimes she strain to pass the poop, but not cry.
I'm suspecting cmpa, but I'm not sure about it, can anyone guide me.
