I consulted another doctor who has given zinc powder 0.5ml a day for 14 days, enterogemnia 5ml twice daily for 3 days and walamycin suspension 0.5 ml for 4-5 days. I didn t see any result even after using that for 2days as still she passes her stool in green color and watery.My baby weighs 5.2 kg approx My baby activity is normal. Now she has even severe cold.as it s been 2 weeks I am worried a lot.. Please help
Welcome to the ChatDoctorThe breastfed babies stools may change in color, and baby may even have an occasional green stool. Consistently green stools, however, may indicate a problem, such as imbalance in foremilk/hind milk, or sensitivity to something in moms diet, such as dairy. Green stools do not always indicate a problem. If your babies activity and weight gain is normal, it is very unlikely to have green poops due to some infection. So in my opinion there is no need for any medical treatment. Only check if he is properly breastfed and is getting hind milk properly.
