AMOXICILLIN - SOMETIMES BABIES POOP  IS GREEN .AND SOMETIMES TAKING A ANTI-BOTIC  WILL GET RID OF THE INFECTION THEY HAVE .BUT I WOULD NOT WORRY ,JUST AS LONG AS HE IS POOPING .! HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL.

I dont think that amoxicillin is the reason. By the way green stool in babies is almost normal and it might be because of fast movement of the stool in the bowel that it has no enough time to turn brown. Stools in origin are geen because of the bile secreted in it but in the bowel it turns brown. So it might be because he didnt eat enough the past days but be careful that he has no diarrhea. and if this persist u may contact his doctor.
Best wishes
