7 month old has spot of blood?

Our 7mo. old has had a spot of blood in his diaper 2-3 times in the last week. The first time his grandmother convinced us it was a spot of sweet potato that he must have put his hand in the front of his diaper. Today he has had a spot twice. They are very small mind you, kind of pinkish orange smaller than a dime right in front of the diaper where he pees.

We have already talked to the physicians office tonight and are taking him in in the morning. (today is Sunday)

What I really wish I could do is tell my wife this is something common and not to be alarmed. She is having anxiety over it. Anyone seen it before?

    Does your baby wear huggies? If so, I've found that the dye from pooh's head and shirt sometimes seeps inside on wet diapers.

    i've only seen something like it in newborns - it looks like blood but is urate crystals in the urine - usually from being slightly dehydrated.

    there's not much you can say to your wife that is going to stop her from worrying. We mums worry about everything - so just get him checked at the Doctors.

    Just make sure he is well hydrated and take the nappy with you to the Dr's so you can show them tomorrow.

    the first project is you acquire your canines from a puppy save ... meaning it has already been forced to soil the position it sleeps, making crate practise him that a lot more beneficial sturdy. maximum folk right here will allow you to comprehend domestic dog save canines come from domestic dog turbines and could already have subject matters with practise. yet, the wear is achieved, so ... The crate could in basic terms be large adequate for him to face up, lie down and change round. If that is any larger, he will stumble on a fashion to make a mess in the nook and sleep elsewhere. Block off portion of it in case you should. you're doing properly limiting his nutrition/water intake in the previous he is going to mattress, so keep doing it. the most suitable element may be to adhere to a agenda. Take him out first element in the morning to a delegated 'bathing room' spot and supplies you him a cue be conscious for easing himself - 'hurry up' or 'bypass potty' or regardless of. once you're outdoors, it ought to probable be all business organization, no taking section in. do not talk with or intearct with him till he doesn his business organization. even as he does, make a huge deal! praise him like he has in basic terms achieved the most suitable element ever in the total global! Repeat each and every 3-4 hours (it truly is about as long as a domestic dog that age can carry it) Have a buddy or neighbour come over in the midst of he day if mandatory to enable him out back. even as he's unsupervised, he should be in the crate with some possibility-free toys. even as he's with you interior, he should be tied for your waist with a leash. no longer in basic terms does this help set up you as chief and form a bond, it guarantees you may continuously keep an eye fixed on his so as that once he starts sniffing and circling you may rush him outdoors. Be per the cue be conscious and praise. he receives it quickly adequate. bear in mind, he remains somewhat one and may't carry that little bladder. sturdy success! upload: to kutie 717: by no skill, EVER hit your canines or rub its nostril in any mess that is created. A canines's memory is too short for it to connect the crime and the punishment. that is going to easily change into afraid to soil in the front of you and also you may by no skill get it housetrained. in case you discover that is had an coincidence, in basic terms clean up and flow on. in case you seize it in the act, tell him 'no' in a stern voice to startle it, then carry it outdoors to end. praise even as he receives it proper.

    If the baby seems otherwise fine, it probably is something easily taken care of, give your wife hugs and sleep well.
