Did you recently change formula? Mine too when I itchy fingers wanted to change her formula to NAN. Was on Enfamil previously. First time seeing this kind of colour too, my husband immediately went out to buy her normal formula milk (Enfamil) cause I googled and scared myself reading about internal bleeding and all. Next day baby’s poop was a mushy tan green and read on here that it’s pretty normal for NAN babies to have greenish poop colour. But still I couldn’t and refused to see more green poops so I stopped feeding her NAN. Some babies are ok with NAN and have normal coloured poop. On the other hand, did you recently change your diet? Maybe add a little more iron? Cause iron can cause darker poop. May want to google baby poop colour guide. For a peace of mind, can bring your baby to see a PD. Take care!

Nth to worry abt if it's dark green. Likely it's the formula. My baby takes Nan HA 2x a day and sometimes his poop is green too. If baby is not fussy, pooping ok and gaining well with Enfamil, stick to it.
