A. For a 2-month-old baby, gummy, yellowish, and slightly smelly poop is generally normal, especially if the baby is: Breastfed: Breastfed babies often have yellow or mustard-colored stools that can be soft or slightly gummy in texture. A mild smell is also typical. Formula-fed: Formula-fed babies may have thicker stools that are yellow, green, or tan, with a slightly stronger odor. When to Worry: Changes in Color: Greenish stools occasionally are okay, but black, white, or red stools can indicate a problem. Unusual Smell: Strong, foul-smelling stools can indicate an infection or intolerance to milk/formula. Mucus or Blood: Visible mucus (slimy streaks) or blood requires medical attention. Change in Frequency or Behavior: If the poop is very hard, very frequent (diarrhea), or accompanied by a fever, vomiting, or discomfort, consult a pediatrician. If your baby is otherwise happy, feeding well, and gaining weight, gummy yellow poop is likely normal. Keep monitoring and note any significant changes to share with your doctor during routine check-ups.
