What is the reason for a three-month and ten-day-old baby having grayish bowel movements?

Patient's question:

When defecating, the first segment is gray, while the rest are normal yellow. The day before yesterday, all were gray, but yesterday and today there were only a little bit of gray, and the rest were normal again...

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, has the baby recently taken any medication or consumed any specific food that may have caused bowel movements? It is recommended that if everything is normal now, there is no need to feel anxious. The baby is too young, and digestive problems are normal due to immature gastrointestinal function. If necessary, you can go to the hospital for a detailed colonoscopy examination. You can give the baby some pepsin powder, ensure they drink plenty of water, and pay attention to the addition of complementary foods for the baby. Do not be hasty and gradually introduce complementary foods.
