Going for a number 2 many times a day

Is this normal?! Over the last year or so my body wants to do a number 2 usually around 4 times a day. Sometimes more. Always normal, not diarrhoea or anything. It’s often that I go for a wee and while there find I need to have one- I didn’t get the feeling coming on if you see what I mean.

I sometimes get bloated also.

Any major change in bowel movements like this should always be discussed with your doctor.

OP I am the same.
I don't get the urge to go but when having a wee I can do it then.
I used to go once every two days and about a year and a half ago I started doing 2-3 a day.
Now it's a little bit less, maybe once a day but now and then twice a day.
I never went to the doctors as I googled how often should you poop a day and it says it can be multiple!
I also get very bloated.
I work night shifts and by the next morning I look 4-5 months pregnant and hate it.
If you feel it's something to worry about then please see a doctor I'm just giving you my experience of the same issue.

Given that it's a fairly recent change I'd probably suggest seeing the dr to rule things out like cancer, ibs, colitis or crohns, gluten intolerance or coeliacs.
