baby has green shit? no fret!
Tuesday, January 29th, 2008 I was quite surprised when my mom told me that some mothers did not know that babies’ shit could turn out to be green colour. As in.. duh.. I knew that fact since i was like.. wad? 10? And for goodness’ sake. I’m a boy and i know about babies more than certain new mothers. As in.. Dun this mother’s read up on babies before actually making a baby? or at the very least? when you’re pregnant, read up in that 9 months.
So ok.. I’m here to explain the reason behind the green shit of babies..
The fact is.. YOUR BABY IS INFECTED WITH A CERTAIN KIND OF FUNGUS!!! BWAHAHAHA…
ok.. just joking. You see babies sometimes have green shit because of the content of the milk powder that you are using. Babies shit green coloured shit when the Milk powder has high ferum (iron) content. If you have learned chemistry before, you should know that ferum ii+ ions will be green in colour. thus.. excess in iron content in the milk powder causes babies’ shit to be green.
However, this is not in any way harmful to the baby. That is why God gave us the wonderful ability to shit and urine - to let out excess nutrition and so on and so forth. Thus, green shit simply means that your baby just lets out excess iron from the body, which is a good thing because your baby’s intestinal functions are functioning totally well.
But however, if you are still worried about green shit? just change the milk powder and you’ll see the result in a few shits. The shit will slowly turn back brown or yellow which is more pleasing to the eyes of mothers.
But come on.. Green shit is rare. let your baby shit green shit while he still can. If possible, could anyone send me a picture of a pile of green shit? kekeke…
