Hi can you tell me why my 2 year old daughter poop is a really dark brown ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dark stool in 2 yea: Does she take iron supplementation?Iron or bismuth from pepto-bismol can cause dark brown/ black stool . Stool that floats/ oily may be due to pancreatic insufficiency as in cystic fibrosis. If she is having pain, crying then it is more concern.
