Foamy stool

2018-07-19 10:28:10
My baby is 4 months old. Since the past three days he had been passing the stool three times a day. Sometimes it is green, sometimes it is yellow and sometimes yellow with greenish line in between. Stool looked very foamy and jelly like (mucus like). Should I take him to doctor??? 3 stools a day, is it normal??? Why is it foamy???
