Hey, im back again with another concern, As some of you know, I was the one seeking advice with the gassy and fussy baby... Well as I said I took the advices and changed the bottles, which took care of the gas problem. But I also changed formulas. I went from Similac Advance to Good Start Natural Culture, and now my baby stools are green and they smell real bad. They are a bit watery too. It doesn't seem like diarrea, but I remember with my first child, she didin't have green stools, til a bit older. My baby boy is barely a month old... Do you ladies think maybe its the milk, too much lactose? I don't kno, being a mom brings you something new!!! Any help, I would highly appreciate it.

What can I do next?

I remember when I was nursing and the babies had green smelly stools and was told it was the baby drinking so much so fast. Not a big deal...just a sign he was drinking fast. Don't know if that might be the same.

My 3 month old has been on Goodstart all along. Her BM's have always been that way. She is so stinky, my husband gags when attempting to changer her diaper. My doc said that this was a fine "normal" BM.

I would think that would be normal. When our little one was younger, the color ranged from light yellow to mustard to tan to green. A quick call to the pediatrician or looking it up on babycenter.com might ease your worries.

It sounds normal. When my twinkies were younger, the color ranged from light yellow to mustard to orange to tan to green. If you have any concerns, call your pediatrician :)
Glad to hear the new formula is helping.
