Beetroot, caused panic

I'm almost 17w (tomorrow) and when I got up this morning and went to the loo I saw what all pregnant women dread.... red in the loo. My urine looked red, I wiped down below and no red blood. I then realised I ate a lot of beetroot yesterday, it's one of the things I really like at the moment

I was so stressed out and thought I wd bleeding. Thankfully not. Just a warning if you like beetroot too.

Hahahaha I did similar at around 10 weeks pregnant.

Freaked out because there was blood on the tissue then remembered I was in the bathroom blowing my nose, not using the toilet Grin (nosebleeds are a thing for me now!)

Oh dear! I made beetroot hummus and forgot to warn my DD about the consequences. She thought she had kidney failure.

This happens nearly every time I eat beetroot. (Not pregnant - and not got a fatal disease that I know of, either...)
