Hi! Green to yellow colour stools are normal. If child is on any iron supplements stools colour can be black in colour. Check stool colour for another 2 days if still that grey colour is persistent consult your pediatrician

How is the urine colour?? On formula grey stool can be there... just see for few more days for stool color change. If it is persisting for long time get the baby examined by your pediatrician when you visit for vaccination. Otherwise you can take it as normal. Nothing to worry. Drops you can continue.
