Your body and mine must read from the same script. 😂. Occasional urinary incontinence is becoming increasingly an issue for me. Since I’ve never had children and have done pelvic floor exercises for years it seems weird to me but my doctor has ruled out other things and concluded that it is fibro related. As for weakened muscles...my muscles are too weak to produce a BM early in the day but usual somewhat better later on. My “window of opportunity” seems to be late afternoon until bedtime. You aren’t alone in this!

No incontenece issues but weak muscles making BMs difficult. I also have IBS with constipation. No children
This is a good question
We are not alone ladies

Yes many people including myself have trouble with IBS it can be a symptom of Fibromyalgia, also incontinence I use small incontinence pads that helps a lot in case of accidents.

Many Women who have had Children also have this kind of trouble and you need to do pelvic floor exercises, I would consult your Doctor just to make sure it isn't anything else other than with Fibromyalgia. Because Fibromyalgia pain and symptoms can cover-up other illnesses.
