A member asked:
My newborns is now 4 weeks on and has been swapped onto formula after being breastfed for 2 weeks his poo is now green and stringy almost like mucas?

Green is OK: Poo can run the color spectrum from very dark green thru lighter greens to yellows then brown.It all depends on the action of gut germs that convert the very dark bile to lighter shades over time. Geen = less time in the system.
