Causes and preventive measures of green stool in infants

Baby's green stool may be caused by indigestion, abdominal cold and acute enteritis.

Indigestion

If you feed too much or feed too many times, green feces will appear because of indigestion. At the same time, undigested breast flap and other substances can be seen in feces.

Catch a cold in the abdomen

The baby's abdomen is cold, the intestinal peristalsis is weakened, and the excess bile secreted by the liver will be excreted with the stool. Therefore, the baby's stool with cold abdomen will also appear green.

acute enteritis

In addition, the baby's green stool may also be an intestinal bacterial infectious disease such as acute enteritis. Jaundiced babies will also have green stools when they are treated with blue light.

Improper feeding

Breast-fed babies sometimes eat too fast and have green stools when they are under-fed.

Matters needing attention

Parents should pay attention to scientific feeding and measures to prevent babies from catching cold, so as to prevent babies from defecating.
