Why Did I Have Blood In My Stools?

I went to poop today and when I wiped myself there was a lot of blood. So much as if I were on my period but clearly I know I'm not. I had no pain, itching, burning etc. Nothing at all but I'm still worried. I've bleed when I pooped before but never like this time. Usually it would just be light red and little spots on the toilet paper but this time it was like dark red and took a couple of wipes to clear it all. What should I do? I'm 25yrs old mother of 2 ages 8 and 4 and have never had an anal intercourse.
