Patient's question:
My baby is six months old and breastfeeding. She has three bowel movements a day. Sometimes her stool is dark yellow, which is not normal and a bit green. What could be the reason and how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
The baby's stool as you described shows no abnormalities and can be considered normal. At most, it might indicate slight indigestion. However, if there are no other symptoms, it can be left alone for now, as the baby's digestive system is not yet fully developed. This can only serve as a reference, and you still need to focus on careful observation. It's also important to diversify the baby's and ensure adequate exposure to gentle sunlight to prevent a deficiency in vitamin D. I hope this helps, and wish you good health!
