Brief Answer:
No need to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
It is pretty normal for a baby at this age to pass stools like this . If the baby is only on breastfeeeding , feeding well and passing urine well ( at least 8 to 10 times urine per day ) , then you need not worry .
Usually this will settle in a few days .
Feed baby frequently
If frequency increases or baby becomes dull with low urine output, consult your Pediatrician
