A. if you are formula feeding , green poop is normal. breastfeeding baby will pass green , watery stools if he is not getting enough hind milk which is fat rich milk that comes at the end of the milk supply. so baby should feed for longer duration at each breast. Teething, weaning foods may cause this. If watery , foul smelling consult paediatrician. . .

A. Green stools are normal in formula fed babies. But if u r exclusively breastfeeding then Green stools may also be due to the fact that baby is getting only low fat fore milk(milk that comes first) as they don't feed longer in one breast and switch breasts pretty soon. If u let the baby feed longer in one breast then he will get the high fat hind milk which comes later. But if the green stools continue or the consistency of the poop changes like too loose or too tight then u can consult with your pediatrician once.
