Answer: hi dear!
the green stool may be due to formula milk or the foremilk( milk at the beginning of a feeding which consists of low fat content and high lactose content).
and also if the mother or baby is on iron supplements.
-if formula milk is given then dear you will have to stop the formula milk.
-and for foremilk you will have to feed the baby for more than 10mins from one side to get the hind milk also.(Hindmilk is the high-fat, high-calorie breast milk,t's richer, thicker, and creamier than foremilk).
-and if irons supplements is given to baby or taken by the mother then dear you will have to stop using them.
if the motion is loose then it might be due to GIT infection in such cases a stool test will be required dear to make sure if any infection there. and if yes then dont get worried. proper antibiotics will solve the matter. so dont worry.!
take care dear!
