Question

My baby is six months old and is breastfeeding. She poops three times a day, and sometimes the stool is deep yellow and a bit green. What’s going on, and how should I treat it?

Answer

The description of your baby’s stool does not seem to be abnormal and can be considered a normal phenomenon, at most indicating a slight indigestion. If there are no other symptoms, you can temporarily ignore it, as the baby’s digestive function is not yet fully developed. Just use it as a reference, but also pay close attention to observe. It’s also good to diversify complementary foods and ensure adequate exposure to gentle sunlight to prevent vitamin D deficiency. Hope this helps, and wish you health!
