A member asked:
Do i need to consult when my baby has a wet greenish sometimes mustardish stool? it has reduced from being frequent to atleast 3 times a day. she is on nan opti pro formula.

Not particularly: The color of poop is created by ultra green bile added in transit & how it is acted on by digestive juices & gut bacteria. It goes through greens to yellows to browns based on how long & how much gut germs act. A breast fed baby can poop a smear every feed or a soft diaper full once a week. Formula fed usually go at least daily.
