What Causes Cough And Black Stools In An Infant?
I have a question, my two & half month has had a cough for the past couple of days; and now he is passing black poop - for about 3 days. He has no fever , but he has been acting more whinny then normal - usually before going to sleep. Yesterday he threw up 6 times! But still no fever, what could this be?? Just a little cold?

Hi,
I understand your concern. It can just be a viral illness causing gastro enteritis and upper respiratory symptoms. Is he on any iron supplements? Black coloured stools can be because of that.
take care.
