Breastfed babies have a little green poop.

Different breast-fed babies have different performances of turning their stools green. Eating, drinking, pulling, dispersing and sleeping are the main growth tasks of newborn babies. Everyone's understanding is different, and everything is indispensable, which is extremely important. Today, I'm going to talk about the baby's "pull". After food is eaten into the human body, nutrients will be absorbed and utilized by the human body, and the remaining wastes and residues that have not been fully digested and absorbed will become excreta, and toxins and wastes will be discharged through excreta, forming a normal and healthy body cycle. What is the reason why the breast-fed baby's stool is green?

What is the reason for breast-fed baby's green stool 1?

First: Neonatal meconium (dark green) (1) Even if the newborn baby doesn't eat anything, it will pull out dark green meconium 6~ 12 hours after birth. (2) I don't know if the baby loves his mother, or if they don't want to dirty the amniotic fluid that they swallow repeatedly every day. Anyway, the baby will have to come out of the mother's stomach to take the first shit. The fetus accumulated for 9 months must be removed by frequent defecation, which usually lasts for 2~3 days, 3~5 times a day, and the thick dark green can disappear. (3) Fetal feces are usually odorless, sticky and nearly dark green in color. They are mainly composed of amniotic fluid swallowed by children and epithelial cells, hair, sebum, bile and intestinal secretions excreted by the fetus. These innate things are difficult to wash, and experienced old people will tell their parents to pack diapers instead of diapers a few days ago. (4) Experts remind that this is not a bad "bad smell": the defecation time of premature infants is sometimes delayed, which is mainly related to poor intestinal peristalsis of premature infants or delayed eating of children.

Second: the days when the transitional stool (yellow-green) (1) meconium was discharged, the feeding also began. When meconium is discharged, the stool turns yellow-green when it transitions to normal stool. Most newborns appear this stage after 2 ~ 3 days of breastfeeding, and then gradually enter the yellow normal stage (breast-fed babies). (2) Experts remind that this is not a bad "bad smell": the start time of neonatal breastfeeding and the amount of milk will directly affect the appearance and duration of the transition period. If the milk opening is delayed or the milk quantity is too small, the transition will be delayed.

Third: lactation stools (1) breast-fed babies (golden yellow soft paste stools) A. Because mother's milk is rich in oligosaccharides, it can fully stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis, so most babies will not have hard stools, and there will be no obvious odor, which is golden yellow and occasionally slightly green; Or ointment-like, uniform, sour, no foam. The frequency of defecation of breast-fed babies is very flexible, generally 2-5 times a day in the neonatal period. With the growth of children's age, the frequency of defecation will gradually decrease, and the frequency of defecation for children of 2-3 months will decrease to 1-2 times a day. Therefore, it is normal for breast-fed babies to have loose stools and frequent defecation. As long as the baby is in good mental and breastfeeding condition, the weight gain is normal, and there is no difficulty in defecation, abdominal pain or flatulence, parents do not have to worry. B, experts remind-this is not a bad "smelly": breastfeeding newborns may even defecate 7-8 times a day, so parents don't have to worry. This is called physiological diarrhea, which is a normal phenomenon. When the baby grows to a certain period, this diarrhea will disappear automatically. (2) artificially fed babies (khaki hard paste stool) A. Babies fed with formula milk have less stools, usually dry, rough and slightly hard as a hard paste, but it doesn't matter as long as it is not difficult to solve and unlike sheep manure. If there is no problem with digestion, it will generally be khaki or golden yellow, slightly sour, about once a day 1 ~ 2 times. B, experts remind-this is not a bad "smelly": children who drink formula milk sometimes have green or turquoise stools because the iron content of formula milk is high. When the baby does not fully absorb the iron in the milk powder, the excess iron will turn the stool green, which is normal. It's not that the older generation says that children's stools are green. Is to be frightened and cause gastrointestinal discomfort.

Matters needing attention

(1) The baby began to add complementary food from 4 months. With the increase of the number and variety of complementary foods (such as rice flour and banana puree), the baby's defecation began to approach that of adults and began to darken. The baby's stool after eating complementary food is often brown or dark brown, thicker than peanut butter, but still mushy. (2) Experts remind that this is not a bad "stink": babies who eat more fruits and vegetables will have fluffy stools. If you are a child who eats a lot of fish, meat, milk and eggs, the stool will stink because of protein's digestion.
