Greenish stools suggest inadequate feeding , starvation stools or may also be a reflection of some pigments in your own food or drug intake. Kindly breast feed exclusively on demand at least every 3 hours and empty one breast thoroughly before switching to the next during feeding...Also kindly check your food and all intakes generally. Just continue exclusive breastfeeding.
