Hello,
* Mucus in the stool of baby may be possible from inadequate flora support of the intestine even in absence of infection, lactose intolerance is the second possibility for the same.
* Addition of probiotics and evaluation of lactose tolerance are the primary steps to follow first.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello,
She may be developed an infection. You have rehydrated her with breast milk and fluids.
Use enterogermina tubes for reduction of passing stools. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
