Should I Be Concerned For The Black Specks In The Brown Stools In A 10 Month Old?

Hi, I wonder if you can help. I have a 10 and a half month old son. Today he has been so grumpy and moany (he is never like this! He is happy and never hear a cry or moan unless he s hungry, tired or needs his bum changed) but today he s also been clingy and only wants me. I have tried everything but nothing has helped.. Basically, he filled his nappy and his stool was a light brown colour, it was diorhia consistansy but contained little black specks, like pepper.. He filled the whole nappy too - it was a bath job! Should I be concerned? Thanks
