What Causes Pale Green Stools In Babies With Constipation?

My 18 month old has pale yellow or pale green stools once in awhile. She also has problems with constipation. She drinks a lot of milk through out the day. I have put a call in to her doctor and am waiting for a return call. I googled the pale yellow stool and came up with scary answers, but also said it could be from too much milk. Could this be from too much whole milk?

thank you for contacting HCM.

good as you already made an appointment with her doctor, keep that appointment.

if your daughter does not have any pain or fever and playing normally, do not worry. if she has fever pain and not playing well, see the doctor immediately.

too much milk can cause iron deficiency as milk does not have enough iron. then also she can have stools like this. you should feed her variety of foods.
