Green poops?!???

Question

Just wondering if this is normal. 
My 1 month old has been have dark green poops for two days now. 
Wondering if this is normal and if it’s just from something I ate( haven’t ate anything thing green)  or I should be worried..
Thoughts?

Answer

First off, just wanted to offer some encouragement and support. Been in your shoes! Is it not the strangest and most stressful thing to worry about what your little ones poops look like? Is the poop frothy or is it mucusy at all? Are there any bloody streaks? Does it look like a normal bf stool, but just green? My now 2 1/2 yr old son had green mucusy poops with bloody streaks about a month after he was born. Turns out he had a milk/spy protein allergy and after cutting that out of my diet, his poops were great.  reintroduced dairy and spy to my diet around a year and he did great! my newest little one is almost 4 weeks and for a week or so there she was having inconsistent green poops. some even a little mucusy. I discussed it with my midwife and she didn't seem concerened. I have an overactive letdown and she thinks it has to do with her getting a lot of foremilk quickly and not a lot of the fatty windmill. so I've been block feeding, or feeding her off the same breast after the last feed. so she eats off the right, I offer the right again the next feed before moving her to the left. anyways, sorry for the Nov. You could try doing the block feeding, try cutting back on dairy. sometimes Ive read the color can be from something green you've eaten, but I've never personally experienced that.
