Vitamins can do that. So can drinking colored beverages, like koolaid or Gatorade.

I did earlier in my pregnancy, It happened 3 different times, I'm seeing a specialist for a different reason and at an appt I brought it up and she asked if I had ever had gallbladder problems. I told her yes many many years ago and she said it was most likely bile in my stool which was a sign of gallbladder issues. sure enough about a week after I had a pain in my right side like under my breast and went to MD it was stones in my gallbladder. Anyways, just sharing my own experience but bring it up to your md.
