A member asked:

Hi my baby is 5 weeks and her poof is a weird colour its dafk and then its yellow?

Poop-like a rainbow!: Infant stool can be many different colors & still be completely normal. It depends on what they're drinking (formula/breast milk). Breast milk changes as your child grows - this can result in stool changes too.
