Pooping with mucus?

when my 3 year son is now pooping with mucus in it, I have no idea why, he hasn't eaten anything different, can anyone help me out here
Answer:
Causes include:
Ulcerative Colitis and Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Bacterial Infections
Bowel ObstructionThe article says "Mucus without an underlying cause such as a pre-existing condition should be reported to a physician immediately."GO TO THE DOCTOR
Call your pediatrician. It doesn't sound like a dietary issue.
Well, in adults it could be an irritable bowel, which a 3 yr old could have. It changes the way the food is digested and passed through the intestine.
go to DOCTOR!!!!!!!!...
It can also be a bacterial thing. If your child is in daycare he could have gotten it there. There have been more reported cases of "colonitis" type outbreaks in schools lately. It's a sanitation thing.
