A 13 week old baby; has been gaining just under 9oz/week; all developmental
milestones OK.  Baby has persistently green, loose stools; sometimes they
are slimy, the consistency of raw egg white. Baby now stools on average
2/day. Mom has tried to address any foremilk/hindmilk by going as far as
one breast/12 hours; has also eliminated all dairy since baby was 7 weeks.
Situation improved somewhat but stools are still greenish and very loose.
Baby generally happy.

Are the stools a problem we should be trying to solve? Or do we just ignore
them?
