What to Do When a 2-Month-Old Baby Keeps Pooping in Different Colors?

A parent inquires about a 2-month-old baby who has been consistently passing stools of different colors, mixed-fed with breast milk and formula.

After the stool samples were tested, the doctor said there was no need to worry, just continue taking probiotics.
