two poos in a row

I’m having a debate with my friend who thinks I’m insane! Some lighthearted poo talk to lighten the lockdown gloom

DS had a shit before so I changed him, 25 mins later he had another shit which was abit softer, he’s not ill

Was on a FaceTime zoom call and I said I was sick of seeing shit, my friend said I’m tapped for thinking two poos in a row and anyone who does that is not well!

my ex partner quite often had two shits in an hour without belly ache!

Aibu to think two shits is normal! Or have I been delusional 😂😂😂

Mate, what?!

DS used to have so many poos in a row he just used to shit out little nuggets constantly but never a full shit!

So I would say normal.

Chunkymenrock · 16/02/2021 22:16

Propagandalf · 16/02/2021 22:16

I don't give 2 shits about having 2 shits Grin

Great believer in the theory that after 3 shits your hangover is gone.

Do you think OPDS is hungover - I assumed he was a baby but tbh he could be 25 Grin

Watch out OP, a third shit is imminent.

Have we timeslipped back to the nineteen thirties?

I work with disabled children who wear pads. They quite often poo twice. I think its because they hadn't finished pooing the first time so we change them and then they go again. As someone who understands my own bowel movements I would know if to hold it until i get to the toilet and remain on the toilet until I am done, relaxing or engaging muscles as necessary, but people who dont understand using the toilet, I'm guessing including your DS, would not know to go all at once. Plus I'm guessing pooing into a nappy, which gets full is not as comfortable as into a toilet where it just falls away? Maybe he held the rest for that reason? You would know if he is ill by the smell and consistency.

MustardMitt · 16/02/2021 22:22

I’m a near constant shitter so two or three in a row wouldn’t faze me at all!

Of my own I mean Grin

Half term innit.

@Sparklfairy

Hahaha. No no, as a carer, considering poo comes as naturally as breathing.

Hollanda40 · 16/02/2021 22:32

I nearly snapped and farted then

CoffeeRunner · 16/02/2021 22:33

I hate the term “shit” for a baby or child. So undignified.

For me, a shit is a horrible person. Or a shit situation. The bowel movement is a poo. Or a crap if you must Grin.

RedBrickChimney · 16/02/2021 22:40

I’m like clockwork. Every morning between 7:30am and 8:00am. However, I also have a smaller, follow-up, poo at around 11am. Perfectly normal, unless someone tells me this is a sign of some terrible illness........

Hankunamatata · 16/02/2021 22:43

Babies poop lots 🤷‍♀️

FelicityBeedle · 16/02/2021 23:04

I’m another constant poo-er. Probably at least 3 a day
