Question

A three-month-old baby recently has green stool with milk curds. How should this situation be handled?

Answer

If a baby’s stool is green and accompanied by milk curds, it is usually related to indigestion. If the baby is breastfed, it is recommended that the mother adjust her diet, choose easily digestible foods, and closely monitor the baby’s condition. Provide the baby with an appropriate amount of plain water, avoiding overfeeding. It is advised to consult a doctor promptly. If the baby is in good spirits and gaining weight, there is usually no need for special treatment; just make appropriate dietary adjustments.
