Doctor's answer:
Don't worry about your baby's condition. If your baby's poop is green, there's nothing to be concerned about—it's not diarrhea. Your baby changes their bowel movement time every ten days or a week, sometimes even for over ten days, and this is normal. When my baby was two months old, it was the same way, and I was almost scared. Later, I visited a doctor, who said it was nothing to worry about, and I finally felt at ease. The presence of curds indicates indigestion, which is common among babies who drink cow's milk. You can give your baby some "Mama's Love" (a probiotic supplement).
