breastfed since birth.  Thriving and meeting expected milestones.  Problem 
started at about 6 weeks of age after mum had mastitis and had a course of 
antibiotics.  Baby started having frequent green slimy stools with stringy 
bits in.  (Sorry about the descriptive nature of this post!).  He has bouts 
of colic like pain during the day and night and wakes frequently with 
these.  Settles reasonably well with a quick feed or being carried around 
in an upright position.  Otherwise a happy baby.

oversupply?  Not enough hind milk can cause green gassy stools.
