My 3yr old son had blue icing from my dad's birthday cake and the next day his bowels were blue/green. I think if it's on a regular basis I would call the pediatrician but just once in a while I'm not alarmed.

It is normal for a young baby to have a bowel movement several times a day or as little as once a week. In rare cases, there can be up to three weeks between bowel movements. A young baby should only be given a laxative if he or she is bothered by the long intervals between bowel movements. Breastfed babies usually have frequent bowel movements until they are two to three months old. Their stools are typically yellow.
