Doctor's answer:
Baby has green, watery poop, which is likely indigestion. If breastfeeding, the mother should avoid spicy, cold, and greasy foods. The baby should eat small meals frequently. You can give the baby some Mylicon. Food should be served warm. The child should take some Shenling Baiyu Powder and probiotics for treatment. You can also apply warm salt compress. Generally, no special treatment is needed. If the baby is being mixed-fed, it's important to determine if the baby is getting enough milk. If the baby isn't well-fed, the intestines may move too quickly, leading to green poop. In this case, increasing milk intake to ensure the baby is well-fed should be sufficient. Another common cause of fast intestinal movement and green poop is exposure to cold. Check to see what is causing the issue.
