Author of questionMom of 2 children4 days agoA. it's normal for formula fed babies... only take care that there shouldn't be blood in poop, that's what my doc. told me... so no worries
POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 9 m old boy1 Year agoA. Yes, green, dark green, and gray stools can be normal for babies on formula feed. Here's what these colors typically indicate:
Green Stools: Formula-fed babies often have green stools due to the iron content in the formula. It can also happen if the baby is digesting milk proteins quickly.
Dark Green Stools: This may also be due to iron supplements or high iron in the formula.
Gray Stools: While gray stools can sometimes appear in formula-fed babies, consistent gray or pale stools could indicate a digestive issue and should be discussed with a pediatrician.
If your baby seems content, is gaining weight, and has no signs of discomfort, occasional variations in stool color are generally not a cause for concern. However, always consult your pediatrician if you're worried or notice other symptoms like blood in the stool, persistent changes, or signs of illness.
