POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 months agoA. Green poop in a 4-month-old baby is usually not a cause for concern, especially if your baby is otherwise active, feeding well, and gaining weight.
Possible reasons for green poop: Foremilk-hindmilk imbalance (if breastfeeding): Baby may be getting more watery foremilk and less rich hindmilk. Iron-fortified formula: Can cause greenish stools. Mild infection or cold: Can sometimes change stool color. Teething: In some babies, can lead to green poop due to more saliva swallowing. Change in mom’s diet (if breastfeeding): Green veggies or supplements can affect baby’s stool. When to see a doctor: If poop is green and very watery, with mucus or blood. If baby is fussy, has fever, poor feeding, or not gaining weight.
If you let me know how you’re feeding your baby (breast milk, formula, or both), I can guide you better!
