My daughter's poop is a very pitch black color. she has been more tired than usual. she isn't sick and doesn't have a fever. nothing had changed diet?

A simple test of : her stool can reveal if her black stools are caused by bleeding somewhere in her gastrointestinal tract. I assume she'd have told you if she were having nose bleeds or coughing up blood. A simple blood test can show if anemia from blood loss is causing her fatigue. Unlike adults, kids very rarely have tumors of the GI tract. Don't fret. Do call her pediatrician for directions on seeking care.
