What time of day do you normally have a natural bowel movement?

Morning right before getting dressed for work, and again in the evening, about 20-40 minutes after putting the kids to bed.

I can pretty much "set the clock" on having a BM about 2 hours after getting up in the morning. Depending on what I've eaten, I may have one or more during the rest of the day.

Usually first thing in the morning. But depends on what i ate or drank. Stress and junk food affect my bowels big time.

In the morning, right after breakfast I feel the urge to go, but thanks to the large hernia I have, I almost always have to use my shower sure-shot enema attachment to get things going.. I don't really feel like the sure-shot is an enema, as it's just a few shots of water, and not sexually exciting.

10-15 minutes after I wake up and have a little coffee. Coffee seems to move things rather quickly.

Although I'm not 'regular' - movements every other day or two, they are nearly always within an hour of waking up.

Within 15 minutes after rising. This is 90% regular each day. There are occasional days I will not have a need, but very seldom does that happen.

Most of the time in the morning. I think coffee helps things to move. Or the other extreme in mid afternoon, maybe a certain item at lunch helps things along. Rarely in the evening or night.

Get up @ 8:00 hot coffee, check world events , then go to bathroom, happens every day unless interrupted by enema the day/night before. always goes back to that pattern even after very long enema sessions . and that's a good thing.

I TAKE medication with each meal.

That medication produces 4 soft BM a day that I have no feeling or control over,all solid waste is deposited in my diaper by 8 PM ,the medication decides when and where.

After breakfast, but I notice I get an urge to poo at 11am, whether or not I have pooed earlier.

Typically the morning for me.

The urge more often hits me in the morning while I am in the barn doing chores. Far enough from the toilet to have to walk quickly back to the house. Maybe if one knew the look of a "I have to shit" walk they would see it

In the morning after a couple cups of coffee.

Best case scenarios I will have one around 10:30 at night and around 10:30 in the morning. Sometimes earlier in the morning if I didn't do one the night before. I have been lucky enough to do one occasionally in the afternoon if I had missed doing one in the morning.

I am more likely to need to do one in the AM. If I miss or can't go in the AM and PM both, I likely will need an enema to get back on track for a while.

@MissStress I would love to see that walk MissStress. 😉 LOL 😁

Right when I awaken.

Dated a woman once who only pooped in the late afternoon after coming home from work. I asked her once if she ever pooped at her office before leaving for the day. She said she needed to a few times but hated pooping there because her office was all women and some were pretty nasty. I guess there’s an anxiety there for some women.

99% of the time now is a enema bowel movement. I may once a month go on my own but it takes about 3 to 4 days to poop on my own.

Usually in the morning after breakfast and coffee

I really cannot answer this question, because I do not remember the last time I had a BM that was not caused by an enema, suppository, laxative, or some combination of these.

Unfortunately, I never have a spontaneous bm. I have chronic slow transit constipation and always need an enema, a laxative or a suppository to go. After my last enema, I went 7 days without any kind of bm or even an urge. On the 7th day, I took three Dulcolax at bedtime and bascially exploded the next morning after breakfast. Kind of scary how bad my colonic motility is and how much poop can back up in me.

When I first get up in the morning. I usually wake up with a boner, enjoy that for a bit, then go into the bathroom to pee, poop and shower. Sometimes I have an enema first after I pee.

I always have a bowel movement in the morning, just like today. But I will often have another bowel movement in the late morning or early afternoon, unless I have an enema.

From when I get up till noon, 3 or 4 BM's. From noon till I go to bed, 1 to 3 BM's. Welcome to the wonderful world of Crohn's disease. If I'm having a flare up, it can get worse. My good days are 1 to 3 BM's. Without getting too graphic, these BM's are: STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING, GET TO THE BATHROOM NOW!!

A series of high ph isotonic enemas do help, but it seems I never have the time to do them. At my age, life shouldn't be so busy.

For me usually in the morning after breakfast first one then i go when I feel I have to go. Sometime when on a fire or rescue call you cant stop to use the bathroom so you wait till you get back headquarters or pull over to fastfood joint or gas station to use it.

Usually about mid morning.

An old lady once told me, "I have a bowel movement every morning exactly at 7:15am"

"oh that's wonderful!" I replied..

"not really. I never wake up until 7:30!" she replied sadly...

Always first thing in the morning, usually during my cup of coffee or shortly after. Rarely any other time of day.

Adding to earlier post - I've been taking Colace 100mg at with supper to help promote natural BM's in the morning - though I still use my sure-shot to finish things up or help it along.. One thing that is most annoying is when I start fixing something around the house and no sooner do I begin when I get the urge to go - it's like the excitement of beginning to do something triggers a BM.
