Why is baby's stool green?

Today I want to tell you why the sound and stool are green. Every baby is loved by his parents when he is born. Newborn babies are dependent on their mothers and like to drink breast milk. Many mothers do not pay attention to their diet, and their breastfed babies are also affected, which also leads to different color and shape of stools. Let me tell you what happens when baby’s poop is green.

Generally, the stool of breastfed babies is acidic, slightly green in color, and sometimes mixed with some white particles.

If a formula-fed baby has green stools, it means that the intestinal motility is accelerated or there is inflammation in the intestine, which is a symbol of diarrhea. Some parents think that their children’s green stools are caused by some kind of shock, which is wrong.

In addition, for the health of the baby, it is necessary to take in enough iron. If the baby who eats milk powder containing iron cannot fully absorb the iron in the milk powder, the stool will be yellow-green, the white particles in the stool will be larger, and it will be more likely to have a foul odor.

When taking a whey protein formula, the stool will be blue or gray-green; when taking a casein formula, the stool will be browner and harder; when taking a high-iron formula, the stool color will become greener, but it will not affect the softness or hardness of the stool unless a very high dose is taken, such as a therapeutic dose, which will not cause such hard stools. On the contrary, if the iron content is lower, the stool color will be yellower.

You can give your baby beneficial bacteria (Mommy Love, Jinshuangqi) + Chinese medicine (Cenling Baizhu Granules) + lactase. You can choose any one of the above or use all of them.

The above is some information about green baby stools. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. Here I have to remind all expectant mothers that you should be careful about what you eat. Mothers should not eat spicy, raw or cold foods. You can drink some chicken soup to supplement nutrition. Because the mother's diet affects the color and shape of her baby's stool. It may also cause constipation. I wish all mothers and children good health!
