A client gives permission for this request.  She has used 1% gentian violet 
on her nipples and baby's mouth once daily for past two days for 
yeast/thrush. She is seeing green stools with some dark maroon which looks 
like dark blood with a little mucous to her.  Her first child used to get 
bloody stools.  We've been working on oversupply and overactive milk 
ejection. Our question is: might this be just a discoloration from the baby 
perhaps having swallowed a little of the gentian violet or might it have 
irritated the gut? Any information will be appreciated.
