Blood in Baby's Stool

Dear Moms, I noticed a tinge of blood with my baby's (5 month old) stool. Since I'm breastfeeding, the doctor put me on a strict diet (No: dairy, eggs, soy, eggs, nuts, fish, shellfish) to see if what I'm eating has possibly given my baby an allergy. We will go back to the doctor in 2 weeks to test her stool again for blood. If we find that there is still blood there, they might need to do a GI scoping and/or place her on hypo-allergenic formula. I'm wondering if any of you have experienced this and what the outcome had been. Thanks so...
