~~I have a mom in my area of coverage who was on the birth control pill and
within a few days the baby was having bright green stools...so she quit the
BC pill and the baby's
stools returned to normal.  Has anyone else heard of this phenomena?? And
is there something to be done about it?~~

according to this link on dr. jay gordon's site, bright green stools are
normal breastfed stools. maybe the pill just coincided w/ natural or diet related
variations occuring?here is the link, i can't tell you how many moms i send it
to every week! (if you had told me earlier in life how much time i'd end up
spending discussing color, texture, consistency and frequency of poops, i would
have called you crazy...)
