What causes a baby to have green diarrhea?

Patient's question:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
Okay, recently I've been having green bowel movements, about once or twice a day. They contain clear mucus and are very runny. I'm breastfeeding, and I feel like I'm doing okay-wise, and the baby is eating well, I think.

Doctor's answer:

Based on the situation you described, it is considered that the child's symptoms, such as green stools, are caused by indigestion and are directly related to breastfeeding. It is recommended that if the child is not currently experiencing nausea or vomiting, medication for aiding digestion can be used. You can take some lactase enzyme tablets. If the child is breastfed, the mother should pay attention to avoiding extremely cold and spicy foods, as well as preventing colds, etc.
