Black Stool in Pregnancy

2022-03-30 07:18:41
My wife has just completed her 12 weeks of pregnancy and she has been given iron and calcium tablets from this week by the doctor. She had a black stool today so just wanted to check if it is a cause of concern. NT Scan and Double Marker done and all normal. Please advise.
