I'm in a bit of a pickleI need to take a break from work for about three weeks next month. The issue is, it's for exam prep, but I can't really tell my boss that. I'm kind of stuck because I need a medical certificate for this leave. Is there a legit way to get a medical certificate for this kind of situation? I'm feeling pretty stressed about it. Would love some advice!

Greenish stools can be normal in breastfed babies, but in formula-fed babies, it might indicate a change in gut bacteria or a reaction to the formula. Possible reasons for greenish stools include:

Introduction of a new food or formula: This can alter the gut microbiome, leading to changes in stool color.

Foremilk-hindmilk imbalance: If the baby is not getting enough hindmilk (rich in fat), it can cause greenish stools.

Gastrointestinal infection: Although less common, a viral or bacterial infection can cause changes in stool color.

Changing Formula

Before switching formulas, consider consulting your pediatrician to rule out any underlying issues. They can help determine if a formula change is necessary.

If you do switch to Nan Pro, monitor your baby's stool color, consistency, and overall health. Some babies may take time to adjust to a new formula.

I'm trying to understand if Librax is actually meant to help with sleeplessness. My friend told me her doctor prescribed it as a sleeping pill, and I'm a bit confused because I've never heard of it being used for that before. Is it common to use Librax for sleep issues, or could there be another reason the doctor might have recommended it?

No its not a sleeping pill,its used for stomach related issues
