  • If I have to go then I HAVE to go. It might be embarrassing but there's not a lot of choice after a while !

    Well, DH is 42 and DD1 is 16 and they still save it to bring home!

    I think most if us prefer to do our business at home, don't we?

    yup!!

    I know that when you go to the loo its going to be for one of 2 things but I just dont feel comfortable doing it! plus its not very ladylike to say to your mates 'dont worry about where I've got to - I'll be dropping the kids off at the pool'!!!

  • Babies do tend to poo at the same time of the day. My DS when he was daytime potty trained would wait until his nap after lunch to do his poo. I don't think he liked the feeling of it coming away, apparently it is quite common. I don't like to poo anywhere except at home either. It can be inconvenient, but I just can't go somewhere I don't feel comfortable ( it is even the same toilet in my house!)

    Not my baby ... he is not regular ... the only regular thing is that he only goes when he is at home!

  • XOH would only go at home. If we were out and about and he got the urge
    we would have to go home! You can imagine the result of DD1 and DD2 hearing from an early age 'We've got to go home now - Daddy wants a poo'. I have two daughters who will not go anywhere other than at home and I know communal toilets in halls were torture for DD2 in her first year at uni.

    me - I haev IBS - so lose a lot of the element of choice...
