POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. Green poop in a 3-month-old baby can be concerning, but it is often normal and can be caused by several factors. Here are some common reasons why your baby's poop might be green:
1. **Foremilk-Hindmilk Imbalance**: If your baby is breastfeeding and consumes more foremilk (the lower-fat milk that comes out first during feeding) than hindmilk (the higher-fat milk that comes later), it can result in green, frothy stools. This can happen if the baby is not feeding long enough on one breast before switching to the other.
2. **Diet**: If the baby is formula-fed, the type of formula can sometimes cause green stools. Some formulas contain added iron, which can lead to green poop.
3. **Infection or Illness**: Occasionally, green poop can be a sign of a gastrointestinal infection or a mild illness. Other symptoms might include diarrhea, fussiness, or fever
