Help.. Black poo? is this normal?


I have been trying to conceive for almost 2 months and have been taking folic acid every day. Yesterday i started taking pregnacare vitamins and today my poo was black!! really really dark!

i heard to much iron can cause black poo, and wasnt sure if pregnacare has lots of iron in?

Also.. is black poo something to worry about??

any advice would be great!

  1. I’m pretty sure too much iron can cause black poo, but internal bleeding can, also. I highly doubt you are bleeding internally, but I always say it’s better to be safe than sorry! I would get it checked out. Good luck conceiving!!!!

  2. Usually black poo means two things. One vitamins, or bleeding in your digestive system. The second one is a main concern but would definitely come with signs of pain, fever, and intestinal cramps. If you experience those symptoms obviously time to contact the doc…If not then it’s driven by the supplements you are taking.
