What Does Excessive Crying By An Infant During Bowel Movement Indicate?

My 5 month old baby has been crying this past week when having bowel movements. He is not constipated. He has about 2-3 bm s a day. He recently was having black spots in his bm s. The doctor tested himy for parasites and for blood. Both tests came up negative. His bm s have not all been having these black spots anymore, but he has been crying when he pushes. He is on Enfamil gentlease Formula, for about 2 months now. Prior to this formula he always screamed during his bowel movements. What could the issue be???
