What is the color and shape of the baby's stool?

Patient's question:

My sister is 27 years old and recently gave birth to a baby. I came to her house to help her take care of the child. I haven't had children before and don't have much experience. Could you please tell me: What is the color and shape of the baby's stool?

Doctor's answer:

The color of a baby's stool should be light yellow and soft. Second, it is also important to coordinate with the child's diet and mental state. If the child is in good spirits, there is no need to worry excessively. Some children who are fed with formula milk may also have gray stools again. If the stools turn green, with curds, or grayish-white, it indicates that mixed-fed babies may be experiencing symptoms of indigestion again.
