Stop looking at your kid’s evacuations when they’re old enough to self-report.
You want to check urine, too, because someone might think they feel fine, yet their urine could be pink (beet consumption excluded!), brown, or clear, all indicating a potentially serious problem.

The image of pooping taffy has me giggling like a 12-year-old.
It’s one of the pleasures of parenthood: looking at your kid’s evacuation, at times obsessing over it, and discussing it with your partner.
Lovely.
Even with a kid with encopresis that took 4 years to sort out, I never made a habit of inspecting the output once they were out of diapers. Ick.
3-5 here.
Me either. Why should I waste my time with the work of amateurs, when I have so many masterpieces within, striving to get out?
You folks certainly know your shit.
I am a 3 or a 4 . What about frequency. Should you poop every day? Twice a day ?

I’m usually a 4, and a 5 if I overeat.
Usually a 3 or 4, daily or every other day.
Today, with no warning: 7. Usually means virus or I unknowingly ate something I have an allergy to. Grr.
