My gynac at Cloudnine told me beforehand that my stool would turn dark black due to the iron supplements they prescribed. It's totally standard. But if you have stomach pain or if you are not taking iron, call your doctor's assistant and clarify once.
Suno, are u taking iron tablets? Because iron supplements are the main reason for black potty, totally normal. Just drink lots of water and eat some papaya or fiber so constipation doesn't happen with it.
Totally normal if you are on iron pills, don't worry. I had this throughout my pregnancy and had a completely healthy normal delivery. Just keep yourself hydrated and have lots of green veggies!
Beta, ghabrao nahi, jab hum iron ki goli khate hain tab aisa ho jata hai. Ghee aur gunguna paani piya karo raat ko, pet saaf rahega. Agar dard ho ya ajeeb lage toh doctor ko dikha lena.
Please be a bit careful and just mention it to your doctor. While it's mostly due to iron supplements, it's always safer to let your gynac know just in case there's any other issue. Better to be safe during these months.
I don't have much experience yet, but I read that if you are taking iron tablets, it happens because of that. Maybe you can gently ask your gynac in your next visit? Hope you feel better soon.
It's just the iron tablets, relax. Almost every pregnant woman goes through this. If you aren't taking iron and still getting black stool, then definitely book an appointment with your doc.
Uff same here, my stool is pitch black and it scared me so much first time! It's just those heavy iron supplements we have to gulp down. Now I'm too tired to even worry about the color of my poop honestly.
Arey meri saas ne bataya tha ki jab iron ki tablets shuru hoti hain toh aisa hota hi hai. No need to panic at all. Bas dahi aur chaas peeyo acche se taaki garmi na ho body me.
I used to track everything closely due to my PCOS history, and iron supplements definitely cause this. It's very common, so don't be too anxious. But yes, always good to check with your gynac once to be 100% sure about your health.
