ExpertDr Disha PatelAyurvedic Physician4 years agoA. If your baby is on iron supplements than his/her poop can be dark green in color.
If the baby is fed with certain food substance like- green vegetables like spinach, peas, beans or broccoli in the form of purees or soups, the poop can be green.
Certain brands of formula milk resulting in green poop.
Imbalance in foremilk and hind milk also causes green stools.
If green poop with foul smelling than it indicates some bacteria infection...if so kindly Consult your doctor

Ankita MehtaMom of a 10 yr old girl4 years agoA. hi
usually it is normal
in breastfed babies,it is caused by imbalance between foremilk and hindmilk.
so feed your child on each breast at least 20 minutes so he or she can get full fat hindmilk well.
make changes in your diet also as it might be reaction to the food which you ate.
and if your child looks happy healthy and active,eat and sleep well then no need to worry about anything.
