So constipation is more common in pregnancy. That doesn't mean it should be accepted as the normal state of things. And what exactly do you mean by unflushable? If you mean large formed poos, which is what I assumed you meant, then as long as they are not hard there is nothing wrong with them. The person concerned may wish to try evacuating more frequently for the sake of the toilet though.

Of course it should be accepted as normal.. what a silly thing to say.. it is just a variation on normal, and is also related to the muscle relaxants produced in pregnancy which slows the workings of the gut.. however.. my sister has done hard dry pellets since she was a small child and absolutely nothing made any difference the consultant said that is just how some people are.. so there you go.. it is normal for some people.. like cow pats are normal for others.. floaty ones are the ones with problems by all accounts..

I wouldnt want to give them a squeeze to check for consistancy but I have a small childs beach spade I use to break their backs.. i considered getting a beaver to go felling but thoght the animal rights people might not like it

Can you even dare to imagine the table conversation in our houses at times?! ol

The doctor was very keen to discuss mine when I lost all my blood somewhere... after she got cross with me because at the hospital I didn't volunteer I hadn't been when they asked if it had been black why would I? It would have been 'here's a senokot and a cardboard bowl' and I couldn't be doing with that :rotfl:

A doctor once told me that Bloo kills people :eek: apparently your poo is a very important barometer of your general health and people don't notice blood in it etc which is an early sign of bowel cancer because of the colour being masked, and miss out on life saving treatment.

I know now that change in colour is important, the other changes week by week for me

Going back to the bin issue, I used to flush until I blocked my Mum's loo and she had to call out the emergency plumber to come and unblock it now I bulk-buy boxes of those scented disposal bags (or nappy bags if I cant get them) and bin. Bin then gets emptied frequently. Much better than blocking up the plumbing systems...

Any health professional would advise a person with rabbit-pellet poo to increase the fibre in their diet to 'move things along'. Where a diet is high in whole grains, fruit and vegetables, even those who naturally have a longer gut transit time produce faeces approaching 3 or 4 on the Bristol stool chart (the middle of the scale, rabbit pellets are one extreme). It works in pregnancy too. However, I know you always like to have the last word pigpen, and of course you have lots of time on your hands to argue that black is white. The health of you and yours is not my concern, but I do not want casual observers of this thread to get the idea that rabbit pellet poo is not only acceptable, but desirable, putting themselves at risk of diverticulosis, diverticulitis and colon cancer. Especially when all that is usually required is improving their 'highly processed carbohydrate' diet.

NONONONO :mad:

Put it this way - how would you feel if the sewer outside your house, the big one in the street, got blocked with fat and tampons etc and flooded your house ?

The sewage pipe under my mum's road has a bend just under my mum's house. It often gets blocked because of the bend and she ends up with sewage in the garden. Because the blockage happens under her property she is supposed to pay for the water board to come out. Yet, the blockage is always caused by sanitary towels and nappies being flushed away by people further up the street. The water man has gone to all the houses several times and told people not to do this, but they just keep doing it. They are not the ones dealing with the problem so they don't care.
