Could Green Colored Stool Of A 2 Month Baby Be Due To Formula Milk?
hi .
my baby is 2 months old n she takes lactogen infant formula 1 from day 1 as breast milk is not produced. she is breastfed to but only one or two times in a day. She is passing dark green colour stools from past 10-15 days which is after 1 n half month but her stool is not watery . she passes stool once in a day. what could be the reason due to cold as winters are going on or due to forluma milk.

Hi,
Thanks and welcome to HCM.
Babies fed on formula milk pass some what solid stools with altered color.
Exclusively breastfed infants pass loose golden yellow , odorless stools several times a day.
Nothing to worry.
Hope this reply is OK for you.
