To ask if you lean forward when on the toilet?!

[Lauracertain1988]

Don't ask how, but a friend and I were discussing toilet habits and this cropped up.

Lean forward or sit up straight? Not sure if it makes any difference?

Oh and legs open or closed?!

[Beth2511]

I normally sit up straight, except for when I just gave birth and leaning so far forward that my head was practically on the floor was the only way to actually pee

[HollySykes]

Sit up, legs closed and then when I've finished lean forward momentarily to fully empty the bladder, it's a habit left from three pregnancies last one 14 years ago.

Sitting up straight and leaning slightly back helps your bladder empty more effectively (suffered with cystitis a lot in my 20's).

Sitting with your feet on a step stool helps your bowels to open (hate that phrase!) with less straining.
