This has been my younger DD too. It was such a pain when she was young enough to need parental help in the bathroom; always when the plates arrived. As it happens, we've learned that her anxiety can be heightened in a restaurant - a bit overwhelmed by the smells and noise. She now goes to the bathroom immediately after we're seated at the table, so that she can enjoy the rest of her meal, and also knows the escape route to the bathroom if she gets overwhelmed during the meal (which is now rare).

Does she do the same at home and you notice less? My son always leaves halfway through dinner to poop.

+1. Your days of waiting should be over. Let her poop in peace while you eat a hot meal.

OP.

Does she order a soda or eat some bread? I am very regular. Morning is my time.... six seconds after the first sip of coffee.

Perhaps there is a trigger?

I mentioned it to my physical therapist and we figured out the why’s of it, and the only way to change it is to stop giving in to it. It’s a lot of work, and usually involves training your body to be on a schedule. I’d rather just deal with my quirks than try to recalibrate my whole system.

In other words, your dd might be quirky, but it’s not really abnormal or unusual.


Harder for poop.

But what’s going to happen once she starts going on grown-up dates?
