Please excuse!

Ha ha ha - You could have a chart in the small room and see which one wins.

I did not have that pleasure although I have heard of specialist comparison web sites though  

Oh Lynn, I had forgotten all about this.

While in for my second hip a couple of weeks ago I remarked that no one was hounding me for a poo report and that there had been talk of a poo chart when I was in hospital last year.

The nurse smiled and said they had instructions to ask what was normal for you and we could avoid the details .

A bit later she came back with her phone and showed me the latest take on the 'poo chart'.....today I have impeccable hygiene!!!

Snap - brilliant, a new Christmas game.

OMG!!! Are you kidding me? 

The Bristol Poo Chart, my little one would love it!!! Not sure about the rest of the family

Apart from anything it is the stuff of dreams post op to be able to compare anything at all no? x

Good Lord, that is so funny  

I knew I had multiple personalities , but mostly I am type 2 (must remember to avoid type 7)

Big hug

Yes, I'm familiar with the Bristol poo chart, unfortunately   

You could also call your game Poosticks.  

I'll be taking some physillium husk in with me and asking if it's okay to take it.  I use this on a daily basis as I have diverticular disease  and constipation is my worst enemy.  Hopefully, if they allow me to take it my *cough* bodily functions will be alright.  It's only a fibre supplement so I don't see why they'd say no.  It has certainly dealt with the side effects of codeine well.

when i had a total hysterectomy 19 years ago, i remember them asking me about going to the loo the, also the nurses and doctors would come into the ward with pegs on their noses to see who had had the most smelly wind, and they used to try and make you laugh which was so painful lol, but in spire they used to ask me daily if i had opened my bowels, and one morning a young nurse asked me and i said yes quite innocently, smiling and said cant you smell it rofl.

Apologies, Rose, I live in an all male household and have become immune to the talk that happens.

My lot have their own descriptions - a desperate first, a luxury second, a ghostie (one where you know you been but it gone!), the year of the rabbit, the sub and so on. I don't stand a chance!

In Greece a couple of years ago my stepson had 'poo withdrawal', when after 5 days he eventually 'went' he came rushing down to the pool to announce it. The whole family stood and applauded - I guess we might be a bit weird!
