Looks normal if he is feeding regularly n is no it fussy or irritated...its normal for babies to poop once in a day or two...though not sure I f green color ...
 
my bb is almost 4 months and she poops every 2-4 days.. her poo is sometimes dark green and pasty like "dao sar".. she is on full FM and i just started giving her sips of water coz FM is heaty.. So, it is normal for your bb to poop every other day :)

hi all! thanks for the reply :) appreciate it.. i brought him to the PD as well.. she gave me some probiotics and his poop went back to the yellowish colour and he poops 2-3 times per day already but im still on similac advance though.. PD told me i dont have to change the formula if he is still pooping and no constipation. :)

If you feel baby is fine is ok!

Just to share, our pd told us babies poo vary from shades of yellow - greenish (soft, pasty) . If brownish, dark brown or black then we need to take note and be concerned. Frequency of poo not as important as quality of poo, but he did tell us this only cos our son is breastfeeding supplemented with formula. He told us if we are fully formula feeding that it is better to have 1-2 poos per day.
