Flagyl during 1st Trimester

I'm 7 weeks 5 days pregnant and my BMs are very watery. My GI said no Flagyl until 2nd trimester, but my OB said Flagyl is ok during pregnancy now. Anyone taken a few Flagyl during the first trimester?

As a little back story, my j pouch is a year and half old and I have never had fully formed stools. Always watery. Tried fiber, probiotics, different foods, ect. Only thing I can find that helps is Flagyl. Only take it at night, usually 500mg for a couple nights and then I am good to go for a couple weeks. I was thinking 250mg for a night to see if it helps.

Just had a scope of pouch in September due to low potassium. GI said possibly pouchitis and to take Flagyl to clear it up, which I did. It seems to always come back, or maybe it's not pouchitis at all. Maybe it's just my pouch since it's been like this since day 1.

On a happier note, I got pregnant naturally after trying for a year even with a blocked right tube!!!
