Is your baby on breast feeds or formula?

Loose stools are normal. If baby is active, gaining weight adequately, nothing to worry.

Hi! Green colour stools are normal , need not worry. Give breast feeding atleast for 15-20 min each side.
How many times per day is the baby having Loose stools ? And is it huge amount or small ?
Babies usually pass small amount and upto 8-10 times per day are normal.
Give breast feeding on demand/2 nd hourly.
