If a baby's stool is yellow, it is basically normal. If it is abnormal, the stool will appear green or gray in color. For example, if a baby eats too much and experiences indigestion, their stool may be gray in color. What's going on if the baby pulls yellow green poop?
What's going on with the baby pulling yellow green poop
Firstly, drink more front milk and less back milk
It indicates that the baby eats more pre milk and less post milk. We will find that the mother's front milk is very thin and the back milk is very thick, because most of the front milk is trace elements such as sugar, minerals, vitamins, etc., and the baby eats more; Later on, most of the milk is a relatively high calorie element, containing a large amount of protein, but the baby eats less, which can cause the baby to have green stool.
Secondly, the baby caught a cold
Due to the weak constitution of babies, if mothers are not careful, babies are prone to catching a cold. Once a baby catches a cold, the color of their poop will turn green. Therefore, parents must pay attention to the weather and adjust their baby's clothing in a timely manner.
Thirdly, complementary foods have been added
We know that 6 month old babies can add complementary foods. On top of that, try complementary foods gradually. The type and quantity of complementary foods should be small and the shape should be fine. For example, Rice noodles can be added, and it should be gradually added. After adapting to this complementary food, add another complementary food. However, if the baby does not adapt, they may appear green when defecating.
Changes in the baby's bowel movements
Usually, in the first few days of birth, a baby's stool is uniform, dark green, and sticky, which is considered a normal phenomenon. Babies who are breastfed within one month of birth often have yellow feces, which change from yellow to yellow green as they age. At 5 months old, yellow green or green will appear. However, babies who are fed infant formula often have green feces.
Mothers all know that babies' stools often have problems, sometimes they are thin, sometimes they are green, and sometimes they are very smelly. Parents should pay attention to their babies' abnormal changes, as these stools may be caused by various diseases and other factors, and timely treatment measures should be taken.
