Your newborn baby’s stool is very dark green, tarry, sticky and odorless.

During the first one to two days of birth, you go to change your newborn baby’s diaper. The baby stool is very dark green , tarry , sticky and odorless. Which is the correct answer?

Your breast or bottle milk may be contaminated and antibiotics are needed.
You should take the baby to the emergency room immediately and notify your pediatrician.
This is normal it’s called meconium or “mec.” It’s the baby’s first stool of life.
You should pump and dump your breast milk for 30 minutes before your next feeding or change the brand of formula you are feeding the baby.

In this time of giving birth, we now have 24 hour early discharge from a hospital or discharge from a birthing center after a few hours of observation. Are you prepared to give care to your newborn? Take my class and learn how to give complete care to your new loved one!
