You really need a work-up by a physician. The most likely cause is a simple vitamin K deficiency. Usually diet related. I say "most likely" because it is absolutely positively impossible to make any kind of a diagnosis on an internet bulleten board. There are other possible causes. I'm not going to provide a laundry list. I hesitate to give any advice that would discourage you from seeking the advice of an M.D. That being said, you might try a low-dose vitamin k supplement.
