    The baby drinks milk powder and pulls green stool, and the baby's stool is green, which can be physiological or pathological.

    The stool contains bilirubin, and if the bilirubin is oxidized to biliverdin, the stool can appear green. The presence of bifidobacterium in the baby's intestines can also make the intestines acidic. The bilirubin in the stool is oxidized in the intestines, causing the stool to turn green.

    There are also some babies who are not full, because hunger will cause intestinal peristalsis to increase rapidly, and the bilirubin in the intestine is excreted from the stool without conversion, so the stool can also be green at this time.

    The pathological factor is when the baby has diarrhea due to various reasons. Including the baby's stomach is cold, or eating too much miscellaneous food, exceeding the baby's digestive capacity, will lead to diarrhea. This increases intestinal peristalsis and makes the stool green in color.

    This is not necessarily caused by milk powder

    There are many reasons for the formation of green stools, and most normal green stools are normal stools. However, there are also the following conditions that cause green stools: infants and young children with cold, hunger, indigestion or acute diarrhea have not yet converted biliverdin into fecal biloball in the intestine because the intestinal peristalsis is too fast.

    Iron malabsorption due to excessive iron use or vitamin C deficiency; Or the iron in the formula is not fully absorbed, and a part of the iron that is not absorbed is mixed with the stool and excreted, forming green or black stool, but the shape of the stool is normal, which is not a child's indigestion. Therefore, it is necessary to supplement an appropriate amount of iron according to the specific situation of the child, and supplement vitamin C at the same time as iron supplementation, so that there will be no green stool when the iron is absorbed completely, and some green vegetables eaten are not completely digested and excreted from the stool.

    1. Dairy products are rich in iron, which cannot be completely absorbed in time and discharged from the stool, which is green stool;

    2. In the process of digestion of fat, less bile is consumed, and excess bile is discharged from the stool, making the stool green;

    3. There is inflammation in the intestine or intestinal peristalsis is too fast, so that the bilirubin in the intestine is discharged from the stool before it is converted, making the stool green;

    4. Drink less water, and the milk is more hot, causing the baby to be on fire;

    5. The incorrect concentration of milk powder is generally too high;

    6. Infant digestive function is weakened (such as cold, abdominal cold or disease, etc.).

    1. If the baby's stool frequency is normal, or a little more than usual, there is no foam or snot-like mucus, the general problem is not big, it may be poor digestion, eat some mommy love, and improve the intestinal flora.

    2. There is also a possibility of the relationship between children's digestive function, due to intestinal dysfunction and intestinal peristalsis disorders, take some medicine to help digestion or pay attention to diet, children will soon adjust.

    3. You can also drink some light salt water before drinking milk, so that it can generally improve in a few days.

    4. If the child's weight gain is relatively good and the spirit is good, it should also be the effect of indigestion, because the green stool means that there is biliverdin and digestive function. On the one hand, you can take probiotic drugs, and massage the abdomen clockwise, two to three times a day, for about a minute at a time.
