What is the reason why a one-year-old baby has green poop?

Babies often have green stools during the confinement period. I believe that new mothers should be very nervous and have many questions. For example, they may think that the baby may be sick and need to go to the hospital for examination. If you don’t know much about these, then let me introduce to you today what is the matter with the baby’s green stools?

There are several reasons why babies have green stools:

1. Whether the child can consume enough food every day. This situation will occur if the intake is insufficient.

2. The food the child eats is too sweet, that is, the amount of sugar consumed is too high.

3. The child’s abdomen gets cold.

4. If breastfeeding is the case, the mother’s emotions need to be considered. Emotional tension and anxiety will also affect the baby’s bowel movements. If the baby eats well, is in good spirits and doesn't cry, it is normal to have occasional green stools.

The digestive tract function of a newborn baby is not yet fully developed. Whether the baby is breastfed or bottle-fed, indigestion is likely to occur, and green stools are one of the manifestations.

5. If the mother does not take good care of the baby in normal times, it will easily cause the baby to get infected, because the baby's skin is still relatively young and can be easily affected by the surrounding environment. The baby will also have green stools, so the mother must pay more attention to care in normal times.

If your baby occasionally has green stools, the mother does not need to worry too much as long as the baby is in good spirits and there are no obvious changes in weight and appetite. If your baby has green stools frequently, has a decreased appetite, and does not gain weight, it is best for the mother to take the baby to the hospital for a check-up.

If your baby has green stools, it is recommended that the mother not be too nervous during this period, because occasional green stools are not a big problem. If it happens too often, the mother is advised to take the child to the hospital for treatment immediately. The editor hopes that your child will be in good health after the holiday.
