Is green poo normal?
my daughter is 12 weeks old we changed her formula from aptamil to Hipp organic a week ago today as her poos on aptamil we’re always quite watery and loose and she was just generally unsettled in the evening and suffered with gas. She’s a lot better on Hipp but now her poos have gone green is this normal? The first photo was morning then second photo was today I’ll add her had her 12 week vaccinations after the morning poo

Gastro bug or cmpa

I was told by my GP that green poo can be caused by rotavirus. If your baby has just had a rotavirus vaccine, that might explain it. It's a live but weakened rotavirus strain.

Keep an eye on your little one, especially if they get a high fever or any other symptoms that worry you.

@OtterMummy2024 the first photo was before the vaccine so a little bit green but it happened to of got greener after.
If the rotavirus has made it greener how long would it stay like this for? Just so I know how long I’ve got to keep an eye out for
