Hi
Im sorry about the bad question but this is my 1st pregnancy and I dont know what is normal but I just went to the loo and my poo was really green. Is this normal does any one know or is there something I should check!! Ive never had this before!!

Did you just start taking vitamins with iron? Or eat something with green or black frosting or food color? Or has it been a few days since you've gone? Any of that could cause green poo...I'm not even pregnant now, but the other day I was freaking out because mine was bright red...I had forgotten that I'd eaten a can of cherry pie filling.

It could very well be the vitamins, especially the iron. Iron pills turned mine black!

that used to happen to me when i was little and my parents always told me it's normal when you eat a lot of sweets. Have you eaten a lot of sweets?

My mom has to drink a lot of green tea and for a week while that stuf was flushing her system out she had a lot of green poo and some of it was even runny. What I heard is that sometimes when you are taking something for the first time it cleans out your system and it may come out green, but I do sugest you talk to your doctor that is what my mom did.

Dont worry everyone I have had lime green, shocking green, olive green and almost everything in between. Im still fine so I think it just comes from whatever you eat.

Are you eatting alot of veggies and fruit? because i have a feeling thats what is causing mine to be green. Thats all i can seem to eat.

I would say you have started taking vitamins in the last couple weeks... I have had the exact same thing and I started my vitamins one week ago... There is definitly no need to worry though... different foods etc can do weird things. Best of luck with the rest of your pregnancy
