Happy Easter and Happy Passover to all who celebrate!

💩💩 F***l Fact Friday 💩💩

The average person uses about 50 sheets of toilet paper every day. That calculates out to about 100 rolls per year and about 50 pounds of TP per year.

To some extent, your TP usage can give clues to bowel health. Someone who barely needs to wipe after a bowel movement may be constipated.

Do you think the people in your house use more or less than the average? Do you have a favorite brand of toilet paper? Has anyone ditched TP for a bidet?

💩💩 F***l Fact Friday 💩💩

If the average person lives to just shy of 80 years, they will achieve a mountainous 25,000 pounds of poo over their lifetime.

With our bodies producing this amount of p**p, we need to make sure that p**p is coming OUT of our constipated kiddos. DM today to find out how Good To Go Physical Therapy can help ☎️.

F***l Fact Friday 💩: Many people p**p in the morning, not just those that drink coffee! After a nighttime of working silently to process and digest the food from the day before, the colon starts the day by contracting harder to get rid of the waste.

The gastrocolic reflex is also responsible for easier p**ping right after a meal. The muscles in the colon squeeze and contract harder to empty.

The bottom line: regular schedules can help with regularity, and our bowels love regularity.

For our children with constipation, try to keep the following as regular as possible to maximize the chances of daily complete emptying at the same time:

1) Schedule extra time in the morning and after each meal so the child is less stressed and more relaxed and likely to p**p.
2) Maintain fluid intake.
3) Maintain similar intake of fiber, fruits and vegetables.
4) Take supplements at the same time every day and don't make any drastic changes.
5) Regular sleep schedules.

Happy p**ping! 💩

Especially when it comes to our kids, medical interventions can sound extra scary. Fortunately, when it comes to "urotherapy," there is no need to be scared. Urotherapy is a crucial and standard first step for many children with bladder and bowel incontinence.

Urotherapy is a word that represents simple non-invasive bowel and bladder re-education to address incontinence:

1) Family and Child Education
2) Manage Constipation
3) How much and how often to drink fluids (and what types of fluids!)
4) Urination Schedule
5) Toileting Posture

💩F***l Fact Friday 💩

While using buffalo chips to have a fire is certainly resourceful, the early settlers were not the first ones to discover these practices. Buffalo chips had been used for fires for centuries before the early settlers began their travels west.

💩F***l Fact Friday 💩

Did you know that blue whales are responsible for the largest p**ps of all animals on our planet? Additionally, 50 gallons of f***s is over 400 pounds per blast. That's a lot of p**p!

Whale p**p is actually tremendously important for the balance of the ocean, too. Save the whales, praise their poos, save the oceans 🌊.

Here is a hot topic - the LINES for women's bathrooms. ⌚️

Did you know that the wait to use a toilet in the women's room can be 34 times as long as the men's room?

There are many contributing factors for this discrepancy, but I can assure you, nobody wants to linger in a public bathroom longer than necessary. Find out if there are any bathroom movements in your area (social movements, not bowel movements) and find out how you can support them for positive change 🏳️‍🌈.

A shorter and more inclusive bathroom line may help ease parent stress and help our children prone to withholding urine or poo too ✌️

With so much information available to us, it's surprising that we don't hear more about enuresis, a common problem for children and adults. At Good To Go, we are dedicated to helping children and teens get back to living life - accident free.

Contact us for a complementary 15 minute phone evaluation to determine if pelvic floor therapy is right for your child.

F***l Fact Friday: Human p**p is about 75% water.... unless you have encopresis, then that number is much smaller 😬.

The bacteria is the reason why children with encopresis are more susceptible to urinary tract infections (UTIs) and it is not strictly an issue with poor hygiene. If your child has experienced one or more UTIs, discuss with your pediatrician whether constipation may be contributing. Then see your local pediatric pelvic floor specialist!

While you can't change your family or their history of bedwetting, a pediatric pelvic floor specialist, such as Good To Go Physical Therapy, can help with so much more regarding nighttime bedwetting.

Before your pediatrician prescribes 💊to help with bedwetting, be sure all other factors have been addressed.

F***l Fact Friday: You can all breathe a sigh of relief. The "p**p deck" on a ship is NOT where everyone p**ps. The word comes from the french word, "la poupe", for the stern (back) of the ship. The p**p deck is the roof of the p**p cabin, also not used for p**ping. On a boat, a toilet is called "the head," named after sailors going to the front of the boat to relieve themselves.

As an additional fun fact, the more than 700 passengers in third class on the Titanic had to share just two bathrooms. I'm sure the lines were awful, and probably resulted in a lot of unhealthy withholding behaviors.

It's opposite ⬅️ ➡️day! Earlier today we learned about common constipating foods. Now we're going to review a few foods for regularity. Again, this is not an exhaustive list and what works for one person may not work for another.

ALSO, what causes constipation in one person may cause loose stools in another person. Some people need more fiber and some people need less. Always listen to your body and teach your children to listen to their bodies 😘

1) Prunes and plums

2) Beans - chickpeas, black beans, kidney beans, etc

3) Oatmeal - high in soluble fiber

4) Peaches, good for your peach.

5) Leafy greens - many kids don't love leafy greens, but many will slurp them up in a smoothie!

6) Kiwi - high in fiber

7) Watermelon - Foods high in water 👌

8) Pears - Winter is a great time to find them in-season and SO delicious in grocery stores.

If you've ever had diarrhea, people usually recommend the BRAT diet - bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. That means these foods tend to have a BINDING effect in our bodies.

What do toddlers like to eat? Bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. It can be a perfect storm that starts the constipation merry-go-round.

While some people may react to these foods in the form of constipation, some people may be able to eat them without trouble. Everyone's body is different, which is why it can be important to complete a food, bowel, and bladder diary with of our therapists.

Which foods have you noticed cause constipation for you or your child?

Side Note: These slides are not a comprehensive list of all constipating foods.
