Green Poo - Smells like Vinegar

Any thoughts ladies!

All of a sudden yesterday evening my DS's poo was green and smelt sharply like vinegar - has anyone else had this. The only change in his diet is that 2 days ago I started him on 1 formula feed per day (using actimal comfort) for me my diet has been exactly the same apart from I (think) I had a dodgy tuna sandwich on Saturday and yesterday I had a cup of chamomile tea, which I have no drank in over a week, oh and I have a bit of a cold...

P.S. he had not done a poo since so cannot tell if it still the same all though his wet nappies seem perfectly fine.

I plan to call the doctors but I just wandered if this has happened to anyone else? My DS is 7,5 weeks old.

DS was on Aptamil Comfort when he was 6 weeks old and his poo was always green unlike the yellow one when he was exclusively BF.I too was quite scared when I saw it the first time but then discovered that it happened only when I gave him Aptamil comfort to ease his reflux...So probably it could be the formula.

It could have to do with adding the formula. Green poo, runny etc are typically normal. Mine, although he was a reflux baby, had green poos til we started him on solids. I wouldn't worry about it unless its causing discomfort or he has other symptoms.
