What's the matter with the green shit?

The color of stool is closely related to the chemical changes of bile. The bile in the upper part of the small intestine contains bilirubin and biliverdin, which makes the stool yellow green.

Breast fed baby's stool acid, in the role of intestinal bacteria, part of the bilirubin into biliverdin, so that the discharge of the stool is light green, this is a normal phenomenon.

This is because the cold will lead to intestinal peristalsis too fast, in the colon biliverdin is too late to be reduced to bilirubin, so it will appear green. This is one of the common causes of green stools. If it's just green stool and other conditions are normal, parents can pay attention to keep the baby's abdomen warm and recover in a few days.
