What should I do if my breast milk has a different/unusual color (green)?

If your breast milk has a different or unusual color, such as green, it could be caused by consuming certain foods or drinks like green vegetables or Gatorade. As long as you haven't taken medication that may affect the color of your milk, it is likely safe to feed it to your child. If you have any other concerns, it's best to consult with a healthcare professional.
