Default lc breastfeeding...interesting observation

Ok, I decided to start low-carbing again now that my son is two months old. I did a lot of research on sites pro and con. The arguments of the con were mostly so laughable that it was just entertaining. One actually said that on a low carb diet it would be a problem getting enough calories in so another diet would be wiser. Anyway...... to the interesting observation. Its been four days and I've been keeping an eye on baby. He seems normal, but his poop has turned green (vs. mustard yellow) and smells like baby poop smells when you start feeding them baby food meat. Know what I mean? Anyone else notice this?

If you are thinking about putting your two cents in, please do!

Green usually means that the baby caught a cold or that DC was not getting enough hind milk, i.e. not bfing long enough on each breast. Glad to hear everything is back to normal.

I tried to LC while breastfeeding and it dropped my supply like crazy and I had to give it up until I was done breastfeeding.
