Dear parents, green poop in this age is normal in child. Green poop suggest excess bile excretion in stool. And it is due to formula milk or improper proportion of foremilk & hindmilk in case of breastfed baby.(excess foremilk & less or no hindmilk. If your child is gaining weight and not sick, then no need to worry about green poop. Its absolutely normal.
