Okay, is drinking goat milk good for the baby? I'm mixing goat milk and water 50/50 in a pot, boiling it, and then letting it cool for her to drink. Lately, her bowel movements have been somewhat green and they smell especially foul.
Regarding past treatment and effectiveness: Not treated. What kind of assistance is needed?
Hello, is goat milk good for the baby's body? How much should she eat each time? Is bowel movement like that normal?

Doctor's answer:

The reasons for green stools include:
1. The rich iron content in dairy products is not fully digested and excreted in the stool, causing it to appear green.
2. During the absorption process, less fat is consumed, leading to excessive bile being excreted in the stool, which makes it green.
3. Inflammation in the intestines or excessive intestinal motility causes bilirubin in the intestines to be excreted before it is converted, resulting in green stools.
Many infants have green stools, and this phenomenon is not a sign of illness but a normal physiological occurrence. It is recommended to feed the baby with formula suitable for their age group and fresh milk, as nutrition may be insufficient.
