A. hii, Green poop happens when there is an improper mixing of foremilk and hindmilk. Foremilk (milk which comes out first from the breast) has a low fat constitution and is rich in lactose. Hindmilk (which comes out after foremilk), on the other hand, is rich in fat. Together, they form a perfect blend that is required for your new baby’s diet. However, when there is an abundance of foremilk, the baby is full before she can get to the hindmilk. This causes digestive problems as there may not be enough lactase (a digestive enzyme) to break down the lactose, leading to green coloured stool.
