I gave Chloe’ some squash, shich she liked and she was up almost all night last night with gas. Today she has had 3 bowl movements and the last one looked like mucas and blood. is this typical of an allergic reaction.

not sure if it’s allergic or intolerant- either way sounds like you should hold off before trying squash again?

I would say to hold off to…It looks like Chloe is just 4 months, right? Since this looks like a problem food, I might wait until 6 months to try anything other than maybe just rice cereal. Just a thought. I hope Chloe is feeling better soon!

Maybe her little system is a little to immature yet to handle the solids. I tried a couple of times before 6 months and Alana had very yucky stools (no blood though). Now she eats everything no probs (even cereals now…which she reacted to a little earlier on). Maybe wait a little while longer?

I would also hold off on the squash again. Definitely sounds like she’s not tolerating it well. Also, if you saved the diaper, you can take it to the ped and they can test it to see if there’s blood in it or something else. (I know, who saves a diaper??…)

Sometimes we’ve had black things that were actually from food (bananas and strawberries) and I thought it was blood, and another time we had bright red blood from a fissure due to hard poop.
