Question: My 4 months old baby is formula fed and his poop color some times dark green and some times yellow
Answer: Hi!
Nothing to worry about, its common in babies. You only worry when the poop is black, white or red, Or there is no poop even after 10 days.
If the frequency of green potty in a day increases or even if loosies are occuring, then chances of stomach infection can be there. My paed said that since everything goes into baby's mouth, sometimes green potty occurs.
However please check the following;
*If baby has cold?
*If baby is on Iron drops
*The green can be due to the iron content of the formula milk you are offering.
* Infection which can cause from the bottle or nipple if not washed properly.
Please see a Doctor if baby shows discomfort.
Good luck!
Question: My baby did green colour poop yesterday. Is it normal. He is feeding both breast milk and formula
Answer: Hello dear, The green poop is nothing to worry about. Breastfed babies' poos naturally vary in colour from greenish-brown or mustard yellow...
formula-fed babies can have dark green poop as well and it can be totally normal. But if your baby is consistently doing explosive green poos, there's often a reason for it: another reason is, your baby may be gulping a lot of milk at once. Or sensitive to medication that you're taking, such as antibiotics or iron supplements. He may also be sensitive to any medication he's having, or a vaccination he's just had. Your baby may be reacting to something you’ve eaten. As well as having green poos. See your doctor if your baby has loose, waterystools for 24 hours, or if diarrhea is accompanied by dehydration, vomiting, fever or blood in stool.
Hope it helped, Take care ur little one....
