Usually a sign of lactose intolerance / can be caused by the feed you are giving him.

Hi, I would get that checked out with Dr or HV. Our baby had cows milk protein allergy, but had blood in stools. The first formula they tried baby on didn't work (it was only partially hydrolysed) so they ended up moving baby onto pure amino and said poops should be a mustard yellow on that. I hope you get some answers!

Hey - do you have an update on this my baby is experiencing the same. Thanks!

@maybebaby28 hello my son didn't tolerate the sma milk, so is on a different brand and doing better. He is 7 month old now, Dr told me not to worry too much about colour of poop. I showed her photo (dark green explosion) she wasn't concerned. But if you have concerns speak to health visitor or GP

All the best.
