Pediatrician,  's  Response
hi, green colour stool in a 2 month old child is normal but this should not persist for a long time. Green colour of stool occur because of less transit time of milk in intestine. As a result of less transit time of milk the bile which is released from gallbladder is not fully reabsorbed resulting into green colour of stools. But if the green colour of stools persist for a long time then chances of infection are there. For gas problem give colicaid drops 4 drops 3 times a day for 2 days. Get child examined by doctor so that we may not miss any important finding. Take care.
