Green EBF poop, normal?

Question

Okay so she’s almost 2 months, and she usually has yellow seedy poop, but I noticed it’s green this last time. I lost my niece just shy of 4 months this year, so I panic over everything. I was searching and saw it had something to do with iron? Like could, and then I remembered I took a prenatal and an iron supplement this morning because I’m usually anemic. Should I not have done that? Help please !

Answer

If BF, green most likely means there is foremilk and hindmilk inbalance. Basically baby gets too much foremilk and not enough hindmilk. What you can do to fix it ina day or to, is not change breast mid feed, let baby empty a full breast before switching. Or take some milk out before feeding.
If it doesn't resolve in a day or two, Green also can be a sign of some sickness, but the first one I described is much more likely issue here.
