Three-month-old baby, had one black bowel movement on the 14th, related to formula

Patient's question:

A three-month-old baby had a black bowel movement on the 14th, another on the 16th, and one today. They are drinking formula and not taking iron supplements, but are taking AD fish oil. Previously, their bowel movements were yellow. Is it related to the formula?

Doctor's answer:

Did the baby recently start drinking this formula? Does the baby have any other abnormal symptoms? This stool color is abnormal, and it is recommended to first test the baby's stool. Green stools are mainly considered to be due to indigestion. This condition is generally related to dietary stability and should be related to the Nestle Super Hydrolyzed Formula. It is best to avoid sudden changes, which can help stabilize the situation.
