If you are pregnant and taking a prenatal vitamin containing Iron then yes your bowels can actually be as dark as black. Totally normal. Twinlab brand prenatal vitamin has a special type of Iron that doesn't constipate you as much and is easier on the stomach.

Your bowel motions will be dark if you are taking iron supplements, as already mentioned. However, it is more concerning if they are black and particularly offensive smelling. This indicates altered blood - blood which may come from the upper gastrointestinal tract and has been altered by the digestive process. If this is the case you need to see a doctor urgently.

Even a guy knows that iron makes the body waste a dismal brown. nonetheless, it can't be omitted that someone would volunteer to be on poop probe patrol. i'm wondering what you're going to volunteer next, anorectum hemorrhoidal inspector and relief applicator? you're certainly a "swell" chum.

this is a sign that you may be slightly constipated, your poop being dark means you need to eat more fruit veg and fiber, and make sure you're drinking plenty of water. And yes this is quite common to be constipated during pregnancy. If you are worried try speak to your doctor he/she may be able to give you something to help.

Well with me I guess you can say it changes depending on what I eat. But yeah, 9 times out of 10 it's dark.

If you are taking pre-natal vitamins as you should, this can make all types of your elimination dark.
