Question

What color of stool is considered normal for a two-month-old baby?

Answer

The color of a two-month-old baby’s stool can vary due to individual differences. However, for babies solely breastfed with breast milk, the normal stool should be golden or yellow in appearance, with a rather thick and uniform texture. It may also contain a little green or milk curds and have a faint sweet-sour taste. Such stool is generally not too loose, too hard, or has an unusual odor. Nonetheless, each baby’s stool may look slightly different, so if you have any concerns about your baby’s stool, it is advisable to consult a pediatrician for more accurate information.
