Asking for Other, Male, 5 years old, FAISALABAD
My 5 months old son is passing greenish yellow stool since 4 to 5 days. Usually he poops once or twice a day but today he poops 4 times with pressure. Consistency of stool is not runny. He is on motherfeed and Nan1. Also gave him home màde yogurt once a day. He is active Masha Allah. But it worries me that why he passed stool many times in a day.
Its normal. Nothing to worry about!
give ors and syp zincat 2.5 ml once daily
observe for at least a day or 2.
greenish stool might be a normal color. does he have flu?

increase feed time. green stool might be formilk or hindmilk
The early part of breast milk can be a cause for greenish stools if sides are changed early without giving the infant a chance to empty them. In diarrhoea the green bile pigments do not get a chance to turn yellow or brown in older children because of hurried passage through the gut. At his age all you need to do for frequent stools is to feed him frequently, preferably on breast exclusively, to prevent deficiency of water or dehydration. If the stools are watery you may use ORS or oral rehydration solution.
