POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 7 m old boy2 years agoA. Green poop in a breastfed baby can be quite normal and isn't always a cause for concern. It can happen for various reasons: 1. **Foremilk-Hindmilk Imbalance:** Greenish poop can occur if the baby is getting more foremilk (the milk at the beginning of a feeding) and not enough hindmilk (the milk at the end of a feeding). Ensure your baby is feeding effectively, and they're getting both foremilk and hindmilk. 2. **Diet of the Mother:** Sometimes, greenish tinges can result from foods the mother is eating. Foods like leafy greens or certain medications can affect the color of breast milk. 3. **Infection or Illness:** In some cases, green poop may be related to a mild stomach infection. Watch for other symptoms like fever or excessive fussiness. 4. **Normal Variation:** Many babies have greenish poop occasionally, and it often returns to a yellow color without any issues. If your baby seems otherwise healthy, is gaining weight appropriately, and there are no other concerning symptoms, green poop alone is usually not a cause for alarm. However, if you have any doubts or concerns, it's always a good idea to consult with your pediatrician to rule out any underlying issues and for peace of mind.
