For the mucus stool, it could be caused by food intake, medication or infection. You should ensure good hygiene around your baby, regular handwashing. Wash and if possible sterilize feeding utensils and toys if any.

some forms of diarrhoea can also cause greenish stool so make sure you practice utmost hygiene around the baby by regular handwashing, keeping feeding utensils clean.
