I've always had some problems with constipation and usually poop twice a week. Healthy people are supposed to go daily... even twice daily!
How often do you go?
-
Oh my, are we going there??? Definitely once a day, sometimes two. Ack, can't believe I am answering this. Haha.
Anyway, it used to literally ruin my day if I didn't go. I know right? But now that I am a mommy, I am not such a crazy person about my poop. Priorities.....
-
lol i go daily.
btw, twice a week?! that doesn't sound nearly enough. you need to take more fiber, maybe? or drink more water?
-
Every day!
-
My first thought was, isn't this very personal? But then I realized, I've already answered questions about my periods, so why not?
I go daily. -
I'm more of an "every other day" person. sometimes just 3 days a week. My mom always worried that not going daily isn't enough, so I have been self-conscious/worried about it too. I do eat alot of fiber and drink adequate fluids...
-
I go about 3 times a week and I have always felt that it wasn't enough.. I have tried everything to fix the problem.. but nothing seems to work.. It may be that when I try to take fiber or anything of the sort that I don't ease it into my diet slowly enough.

@Mrs. Bee: I used to have this issue. I have IBS. My PSA: Fiber is your friend. And if you find you're not getting enough fiber naturally, Benefiber helps
-
Once a day
-
dang everyone is pooping daily. i've taken metamucil in the past. looks like i really need to up my fiber intake!
-
woohoo that was my 750th post! i'm a clementine!!!!!!!!!! now i can go to bed happy.
-
I go daily, unless it's before my period. I am one of the lucky ones who gets diahrrea as a precursor to their period. Then it's 3-4 times a day.
-
Prepregnancy: 1-2x a day (depending on what I ate...haha). Now that there's a bun in the oven, I'm lucky if I go once a day. I've been trying to eat more fruit (esp pears and apples - with the skin on) and take fiber gummies! yum!
-
Yay, Clementine! I am so regular and go once a day, in the morning. Unless I'm in a rush b/c of the baby's change in plans, then I go in the afternoon but I feel all jacked up. It's happening more often.... I usually eat around the same times everyday.
-
Every 2-3 days, sometimes longer... I'm not normal by any means. I went a whole week without pooping when I was on vacation in China. I was afraid to use the public squat toilets and mentally not prepared for it. Then right after my LO was born, I was pooing daily for a month or so. On the other hand, my husband goes 2-3x a day.
-
@Andrea: my husband is just like you. It would ruin his day if he didnt go every day. I am like @mrsbee - twice a week.
-
LOL - the title (and content) of this post had me cracking up!
I go every day, usually once, but sometimes 2-3x per day. It didn't used to be that way. Once I started working out and being more conscience of how I ate, I became more regular.
-
I go twice a day.
-
Prepregnancy it was definitely once if not twice daily. Now that im preggers im lucky for once a day nut usually seems like every other.
-
I just recently started working out daily and that seems to have helped me go daily (or at least that's the only thing that changed). Prior to that it was like 3-4X a week.
-
I used to go like once/twice a week when I was younger
(like in highschool). Then I started eating better and got on a nice once a day in the morning routine which I miss. Now that I'm pregnant, once/twice a week again. Sucks. I feel like throwing a party for myself everytime I go. -
once/twice a day like clockwork. i hope that doesn't change with pregnancy...
-
Maybe once or twice a week like you, for all of my life. I have gone longer without going too. Lately though, I hardly EVER poop. In fact, I finally did the other day, and lost 2 lbs! *sorry if TMI, but at least you get the idea of how plugged up I was!*
-
I don't know, but I know I don't always go once a day.
-
When I eat a well balanced diet (lots of veggies, lean meats, lots of water, etc), I go 1-3 times a day. When I'm bad and I don't eat veggies, I go maybe 3 times a week.

i hesitated to click on this but for some reason wanted to know - ha
