No need to worry ,but try exclusive breast feeding and burp the baby by gently patting on the back for at least 10 min after each feed

Fomy stools are due to gases.. which occurs due to top feedin..Try for exclusive breast feeding.. take tablet ( mother has to take)to increase your breast milk... If your baby is gaining good wt then stop formula feeding..

Nothing to worry you can continue breast-feeding.Only if breast-feeding is not sufficient you can give powder milk.Foamy poop is normal.
