New to Irrigation- Please Help!!

Hi Matilda24, the obvious question is can you adjust your work start, certainly at the beginning, to just after you've been? And perhaps try to go slightly earlier each day? Not sure totally changing the routine to the night before will succeed. Your work should be amenable in the situation. Hope you work something out, xx

Hey Gemmary 

Thank you so much for your reply, this is something I could definitely do and they would absolutely accommodate, but I really want to try to be able to get there at my usual start time as my team all start at 8am and the traffic and parking after this are horrendous so that would probably add more anxiety   But I think, if no other solutions do work out then maybe a reasonable flexible start time might have ti be the way forward.  Xxx

Another thought then. If the times clash (I totally get the parking issue!!) can you get there earlier still, and 'go' at work? It might not be possible, but may help the anxiety? Use a disabled toilet maybe for privacy?

I tend to agree with Gemmary  tweak your work to suit your body   Whether that means going in later or earlier 

if you have got yourself into a great daily routine I wouldn’t try to change it   The body will always fight it And again it will find it’s natural rhythm and how great a daily clear out just once a day.  Put your body first 

xx

Thank you, this is another option that I hadn’t considered, really appreciate your input and ideas xx

Thank you Parky. The more I think about it the more I am inclined to do this because my routine is so good I really don’t want to knock it out of line once a week and then not get it back again.   I have looked up massage to promote bowel movement so maybe in the morning of work I can try that to help me get out the door earlier, but if I do a reasonable adjustment and arrive later than I think that’s going to be better than doing irrigation the night before. 

I could potentially use the irrigation on the odd occasion if I am going on a flight and need to empty on a rare occasion but as you say I don’t think it’s worth upsetting my daily routine. 

I really appreciate you support xx

I agree, you really need to adjust work round your current routine. This works so don't break it! But slow tweaks will help. Perhaps look at what you have for dinner the night before - is there anything that gets through quicker!!?? Then you may not need to do much other adjustment!!

This is good thinking!! There are things that do that make me go.  I really think this is the better option.   xx
