Advice you’d never share in real life …

[Spink]

because it would be TMI, or shows a side of you that you prefer not to be seen, etc.

I’ll start 😊

Never let out a large fart while pant-less after applying haemorrhoid cream. Especially when a internal application has been required.

With pants I imagine it’s also pretty bad but more .. contained.

thank me later x

I would suggest a jug.

Well there's a novel use for all the single socks....

The Gut Stuff Good Fibrations peanut butter bars for non stick poos.

Dates and peanuts, look a bit like poo before you eat them and sweep everything out in their path.

I have one in bed every morning with a double espresso and bingo, jobs a good one.

Ohhhhh…. I was really overthinking it 🤣🤣🤣

Whilst getting in the bath when one had D and V is a good idea personally I have Beverly been able to get off the floor and spent a couple of hours admiring the bathroom radiatora! It a horrible illness.

I’ve just been informed by my DP that using spray water on your balls/fanjo actually helps cool you down quicker, apparently it’s used by athletes (ok mostly men but apparently works on woman too).

Bucket and bog. Sit on the bog to puke into the bucket.

If you have a shy bowel, close your eyes and put your hands over your ears or face.

Always have a towel/tissues/cloth of choice ready nearby before you get frisky. Saves dribbles or that awkward two person shuffle and reach.

If your toddler has a loose nappy with those sticky bits of poo, wet wipes just don't pick it up and make their skin sore. Start with wet wipes to get the worst, let their bum dry and get the rest away with a dry cloth or tissue. Use YouTube to keep kiddo still for longer.

Hyoscine, which is in Buscopan, was an ingredient of Feminax until the early noughties, so I can see how that combination would work.

@2bazookas, this exact thing happened to me running down a railway platform. I felt the elastic in my knickers snap, kept on running until they were round my ankles, stepped out of the knickers without slowing my pace, and still managed to make my train.

Isn't that glaringly obvious? I mean, faecal bacteria do not belong in the vagina, for starters.

Why are people puking in the sink/bath?? That is disgusting. 🤢
Vomit bags or bucket lined with bin-bag in the bathroom. No mess to clean up!

NEVER EVER take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

Our resident poo, and other, trolls will be loving this thread 🤢🤢😀

I have company

I sit on the toilet with a dishpan or bucket. Vast experience has taught me that it works the best with the least explosive issues. Of course, I've usually had DH around when it happens (IBS), so I have someone to make sure there is plenty of paper and to switch out the dishpan/bucket as needed.

THIS!!!

And be prepared for the time when you are out and it hits suddenly, giving you two minutes notice and not a bathroom for a few miles.

An empty drywall bucket w/lid, lined with a garbage bag, kleenex and a blanket saved my life/car once, well twice, both in the same 30-minute period. My dignity was more injured, but it beat the alternative.

I am today years old when I found out about the Bristol Stool Chart. My IBS makes me cover the whole 7 types quite well, though 6-7 is when it gets painful. (cramping)

Not everywhere. My son and husband both do janitorial/maintenance work and both have to empty them by hand.

About the son living at home and siblings. Why is that a problem? Did the at-home sibling provide care for the person living there also?

For a small bathroom, they do make a collapsible dish pan that can be stored easily and brought out when needed.

Always

Put a ring on it!

Sorry not sorry.

I didn't understand this one either... perhaps it's to do with the resident child assuming ownership, or at least ongoing residency, of the house, when the siblings would want to sell it and get their share?

If your child is car sick always have a seaside bucket where they can easily reach it.
