Is it common for a four month old baby to have hemorrhoids?
Last night when I was changing her diaper I noticed what I think is a hemorrhoid. But I’m not even sure what a hemorrhoid looks like.

id get a doctor to have a look asap. not sure what your seeing but i think its unlikely for a baby to have hemorriods if it looks like a big blister it may be thrush - yeast infection - its common in little ones and clears up with the right medicine. dont know if thats ne help
Common????? Er, no.
Call her pediatrician. Let the doctor have a looksee.
if ur baby cries when he/she is pooping… thats a hemorroid…
No consult ur doctor…
fast!!!
no not common. one of my friend’s baby had them do to constipation, no matter what they did, the doctor finally put the baby on miralax and it helped a great deal!
Ask your doctor about a stool softener for your baby. This is not normal for a 4month old.
has the baby been constipated
they look like a little ball of blood
always get them checked out
aw poor thing
You should go have a doctor look at that. Is she constipated?
A hemeroid is an enlarged blood veine in the anus. I got them when I was pregnent. If the baby has trouble pooping, put lite Kero (corn) syrupe in its bottle (in the pie isle), just a teaspoon. Dr recomened. If the baby is having trouble the hemeriod would be an overdue sign. If it has never burst or bled, some TLC will help it go away. My daughter had aweful times with constipation. I had her on the syrupe for a year (no percriptions or medication). It wasn’t until I switched her off formula to milk that she could finaly go on her own, with out trouble. Stress on the anus is what causes Hemeriods. Start the baby on the syrupe and then contact the doctor for a check up.
She doesn’t seem to be in pain when she poops?? Even if not- call her doc! They’ll know what to do!
Definitely NOT - visit immediately your pediatrician!!!
