Paradise found. Bowel routine? MIA🌴💩
Vacation constipation happens. The good(ish?) news is that your body has some pretty reasonable explanations for it.
Flying, dehydration, less movement, different foods, disrupted sleep, schedule changes, and ignoring the urge because you’d rather NOT p**p in an airport bathroom can all change your usual rhythm 🎵
And constipation isn’t just a gut thing.
Harder stools and repeated straining increase pressure through the pelvic floor, which can mean aggravated prolapse symptoms, hemorrhoids, and pelvic pain for some of us lucky ones 😉
A few ways to keep things moving while you’re away:
💧 Stay hydrated
🚶 Keep moving
🥝 Get some fibre in where you can
🚽 GO when your body gives you the cue (seriously — just GO!)
😮💨 Breathe instead of bearing down and forcing it
Save this before your next trip… ideally BEFORE day four in paradise 😉
