Question

Why does my daughter’s stool always come out green, and she only eats Babynut milk powder? Is this situation normal?

Answer

Generally, breastfed babies have stools that are yellow or golden yellow, soft in texture, sometimes slightly green with a sour taste but not smelly, and they defecate 2 to 4 times a day. As for formula-fed babies, their stools are lighter in color, may appear earthy gray, harder, with milk curds, and have a distinct odor, defecating 1 to 2 times a day. It is suggested to consider adding nutritional supplements containing active immunoglobulins, such as colostrum, to help inhibit the growth of bacteria.
