Hi Debbie, I think that you are correct, ...if there is an unhappy baby
involved (more than normal fussiness,...sometimes mothers do not tolerate
ANY fussiness in the baby...., which is unrealistic, but they don't know
that), then there is a real problem....in my book.  I was referring to
babies who are happy, healthy, and who have green stools. To me, in that
situation, the color of the bm doesn't matter, but I was referring to
babies who were *happy* and growing.
