If you're not having any discomfort (bloating, cramping) and the BM isn't of a hard, dry, painful-to-pass consistency, then you can just relax into your body's natural rhythm.

I have to chime in with Lauren. I'm a once a day girl myself, but my hubby probably only has a BM 2 or 3 times a week, tops. He's in good health and it doesn't cause him any discomfort, so I've always just figured it's how his body works.
