POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy8 months 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.
