Newborn Poop Question? Green poop!


My DD diapers are always a yellow seedy color. This morning I noticed it was green and still very seedy. I am EBF.

Is this normal???

Should I call the pediatrician if I noticed it again in another diaper??

Does she feel ok?
DH and I had a stomach virus back in Dec. He had it the worst, I got a much milder case, and DS had it even milder than I. At that time he had a greenish diaper. I dont know if it was related to our stomach virus or not.
At that time, I remember researching it though and it seemed normal to have an occasional greenish poop.

She seems fine. She doesnt have a fever or any other symptoms of a cold or virus. Sleeping well and very calm. She is 5 weeks old.

I see that in DD too. Some color variation is normal. If she's not uncomfortable, it's probably fine.

Re: Newborn Poop Question? Green poop!

Green poop can be an indication of foremilk/hindmilk imbalance. Try to make sure DC is emptying the breast before switching sides. Also, make sure you're starting with the opposite side at the next feeding.
