I usually ‘go’ once a day, around 9am almost like clockwork. However for the past couple of weeks I ‘go’ around 9am,as usual, then l have to ‘go’ again around 9.30, then again a couple of hours later. Not the D word, but fairly soft (sorry). No pain, no bloating, bit gassy though. Any ideas? Bit worried as I have a coach holiday fairly soon and don’t want to keep ‘going’ on the coach ….. could be embarrassing…..

Have you changed your diet? Have you recently had covid?
May I ask how old you are? It sounds like IBS. Irritable bowel syndrome. Sometimes habits change as we get older. And foods we tolerated before suddenly upset you. I can't eat onions any more and now can't tolerate gluten. If it worrying you then talk to your GP.

And not had Covid.
Not to make light of your situation but your coach journey shouldn't be embarrassing, provided there is a toilet on board of course, otherwise, definitely awks.

Yes there is…
Thank you for your helpful description of your problem.
I agree with all the posters above, that it may well be dietary and if you could isolate the incident by removing some foods which are notorious for such bowel changes e.g red meat, some fruits taken in excess then that might give you some idea of the cause.

As far as your coachtrip is concerned, I would buy some Imodium (Loperamide) to take on the trip.

Report back to us on your return from your trip.
is the coach holiday in Britain? I have seen a few coaches abroad whose facilities didn't seem to function too well
