2025-01-26 11:18:23
My baby is one month old she passes green poop more than a week and 3 times it was with mild blood streaks i consulted the doctor and we took stool test and it came reducing substance as positive.Is it something to worry about baby birth weight is 3.340 now her weight is 3.800 is this the reason she is not gaining weight. If it is lactose intolerance should I stop breastfeeding and give formula or should I stop having milk products until breastfeeding
