Green poop

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Has anyone's baby had consistently green poop? My baby is BF and the past two days her poop has been really green which isn't normal for her. The first green diaper had streaks of blood in it too. 

I'm going to the pedi tomorrow w/her but just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and what the cause was. I've read about the foremilk/hindmilk imbalance, but I pump so I don't think that's the problem.

 Thanks!

    Green poop can be a reflection of something you ate. Green poop and blood might be a milk allergy. I'm sure the pedi can help you figure out what is wrong.

    Thanks. I thought it was something I might be eating but I don't eat much of the typical suspects...

    My DH (15 days old) has had green poop since Sunday. I am EBF as well. We went to the pedi for our two week check-up and I brought a diaper to show the doctor. She looked at it and was not very concerned. She said that it is possible that either he or I are fighting a virus or it could be something that I am eating. She advised me that as long as he is eating, sleeping and having regular movements/urination not to worry. We have not seen any blood in the stool but I am a little frustrated because it is hard to say whether there is mucus or not since it always looks "goopy" to me.  I am interested to see what your doctor says. Please keep us updated.

    I thought all the poop should be green or yellow? Is this normal? My LO is a month old and those are the only colors I see

    My LO has had green poop for weeks. I called the doctor and they weren't concerned at all-- she said the only colors they care about are black, white, red, or no poop at all (for an extended period of time). I think it might be a dairy thing, so I cut dairy out of my diet and it's still green, so I don't know what to think. But because my doctor isn't concerned,  I'm just letting it go. He's normal otherwise.

    The doctor said she's probably allergic to something I'm eating. He wasn't too concerned bc she isn't vomiting or having a rash. He said to cut out dairy and soy and see if it works.

    My little ones poop was green for the last two weeks then today turned back to normal yellow. I breast feed and supplement with formula. It will probably go back to normal soon.
