Hello
Your baby report suggests intestinal infection(colitis).Infection is indicated by presence of bacteria and pus cells in stool.
Presence of yeast in stool may be due to dysfunctional immune system or gastrointestinal distress.
Culture and sensitivity of stool should be done for prescribing right antibiotics.
Baby should be given adequate fluids.
Mucus is normally found in stool.
Get well soon.
Take Care
