Will eating watermelon cause blood in a baby's stool?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

After the baby eats watermelon, there are blood clot-like substances in the stool. It is likely caused by the child eating watermelon. Has the child been crying or feeling uncomfortable? Do not eat watermelon again today and wait and see. If the stool returns to normal, there is nothing to worry about. In the future, be mindful of eating less, especially out-of-season fruits.
