I have a concern with the bowel movements of my 7 week old. We b/f exclusively and have noticed a change in the color of his poop!?

It was bright yellow and seedy for the most part but for the past few days it has been more of a brown color. It still has the seeds but is a different texture as well. Today was the weirdest yet. It was like a green/yellow mossy color/consistency. Does this mean there is something wrong with my milk or his digestive tract? I haven't been eating anything too out of the norm. Except last night, we had Tai food at a wedding reception.
Anyone know what's going on or have this happen as well?
Oh, and when he was a few weeks old we noticed it change to a green from yellow and then back to yellow after a few days. What the heck is going on?

Ds's changed often too. I really wouldn't worry, unless it apears greasy, black or whitish, anf of course bloody. It def. has to do with what you eat, too. I really wouldn't even worry, it will go through lots of changes. Ds's is still different all the time, and he's 13 months.

I agree with dizzygirl. Sounds pretty normal to me.
