Hi,
You are not mentioning the age of your baby. If you are breastfeeding and giving also solid foods. Perhaps you gave something new to your baby and it has come up in the feces.
Blood usually comes as red or black or un-noted. Check if you see any external hemrrhoids to your baby.
If your baby continue with such problems and cries while pooing, consult your pediatrician.
Hope this helps!
