Bits in POO!

My DS is 7-weeks old. He's been having VERY runny poo for the last 2 weeks (yellowish) and over the past few days, I've noticed the change of colour to sort of dark green. And yesterday, there were like yellowish BITS in with the poo!

Is this normal?
(not been to doc about this) but seeing doc next Tuesday for his jabs, so will ask then.. but in the meantime....
just wondering if anyone had the same experience

Choccake - are you breastfeeding? Breastfed babies tend to have yellowish, runnier poo than bottlefed. It looks like it has bits of "bird seed" in it too. As for the green bits - I think they say that means that baby is feeding but only get the foremilk and not enough of the the rest. I'm no expert but remember being told these things when I was BF my two dds. HTH.

NO, I'm not breastfeeding. He's solely bottle fed. How strange...!
