Hello,
If your 2 months old son is on ghutti only, then, the black flasks in his stool is indicating some kind of gastrointestinal bleeding. Better check with his pediatrician and run stool analysis and fecal occult blood test.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
