Hi, my 3yr old son has been having severe tummy pains for around 3wks now. Last monday i took him to our GP who said he is probably Coming down with a tummy bug and will no doubt start vomiting or have diarohhia. Although that evening whilst standing doing a wee he strained slightly & poo d lots on the floor, which upset him as this is VERY unusual. Although the start of the stools was solid the rest shot out quite loose & smelled fowl. I was actually happy as believed This was the start of his gastric bug (felt better for knowing why he had pain) but then that was it no more loose stools & no vomiting but the spasams started again & on and off haven t gone. Yesterday he had his pre-school injections so when he woke with pain in his arms & complaining of tummy ache (again) i put it down to that. Then earlier he went to toilet & whilst wiping his bottom i noticed quite a bit of blood & whiteish mucus . Looking at his stools in the toilet they were covered in the white mucus. It was normal consistancy. I am worried sick now & he has been very pale in colour for few weeks also & not wanting to eat much saying he is going to be sick. I have called my GP & am awaiting a phone call. Please help. He is my 4th child (my baby) so i m not usually a paraniod mum! Lesley
