Why is my two and a half month old baby having green poop?

Two and a half month old babies are actually the apple of their parents’ eyes and they are taken good care of. The baby's urination and defecation can actually reflect the child's physical condition very intuitively. If the stool of babies this month is green, parents should pay attention, as the baby may have indigestion, not being full, etc.

1. Babies may spit up milk or have green stools if they catch a cold or have indigestion. If there is a bacterial infection, active treatment is required. If the test results are normal, the baby may have indigestion or a cold abdomen.

2. When the baby is not full, the baby's gastrointestinal motility is too fast due to hunger, so the bilirubin in the intestines has not been converted yet and is excreted from the stool, making the stool green and watery.

3. During the digestion process of fat, less bile is consumed, and the excess bile is excreted in the stool, making the stool green. If the mother thinks that the baby eats a lot, it means that he has indigestion, and she can give the baby some probiotics.

4. If a baby who eats iron-containing milk powder cannot fully absorb the iron in the milk powder, his stool will be yellow-green, the white particles in the stool will be larger, and will be more likely to have a foul odor.

5. When babies first start eating vegetable puree, they often excrete a small amount of green vegetable puree in their stool. Some mothers often think that this is indigestion and stop adding vegetable puree. In fact, this phenomenon is common when healthy babies change their food.

The baby's green stool is mainly caused by the above five reasons. I hope that all mothers can carefully compare the situation of their baby, find out the reasons why the baby has green stool, and then find the correct treatment method to ensure the baby's health.
