A member asked:
Is it normal for 11 weeks old baby have a green-yellow seedy poop?

Absolutely!: The color is perfectly normal. What you don't want to see is white, grey or very light tan color (acholic stool). This would indicate a problem with flow of bile from the liver to the intestines.

Pretty common: The greenish color in stool is the breakdown product of the bile when it has not been in the gut long enough to go through a change to yellowish or brown. It is normal as is the loose consistency. Some digested material will take on a darker tint than others & the germs in the gut will also impact the final product. I'd ignore the whole issue.
