What Causes Cough With Greenish Stool In An Infant?

My 9 month old has been sick lately - coughing,runny/stuffy nose and just seems to be getting well. She is still drinking her formula but barely any solids. For the past 2 days her poop has been greeny/yellowish colour, slimy and has been smelling a strong vinegar smell. What could be causing this?

In my experience, the poop can be variable once a child is recovering from an illness. I usually don't get too concerned. The most important thing is that she is drinking and acting okay. The appetite for solids will come back in time. Just make sure she continues to drink and is urinating and acting okay.
If you have more concerns, you can take a sample and have her doctor take a look. But most likely it is not really significant.
Wishing that she continues to get well!
