It’s an outgrowth of a Facebook status which prompted a flurry of questions about the procurement of our Squatty Potty.
We potty purchased ourselves.
There are no affiliate links below.
La Di Da Di, we like to SQUATTY.
We don’t cause trouble we don’t bother nobody.
We’re just two girls who’re…on the pot.
When we need to poop you KNOW how we SQUAT.
Once upon a time there was a Queen and a Princess.
They both ate a LOT of fiber rich super foods
And yet? Our Princess still struggled on the royal…throne.
(We wont even talk about the Queen. Her love of hemp hearts et al made her highly regular)
(insert NSFW image here of said Princess upon “throne.”)
The Queen oft considered procuring a Squatty Potty.
She assumed, however, her Princess would royally refuse to recline upon it.
Our Queen presumed incorrectly and, once she ordered (ecco 7″),
the two lovelies were hard-pressed to decide who was more excited forย Squatty’s arrival.
Upon unboxing our Queen was shocked by Squatty’s simplicity.
And yet, while her royal court might have been right
and she *may* have been able to create a Squatty on her own,
she knew the Princess would be exceedingly excited by the snazzy contraption.
Our Queen plopped the Squatty in its place of honor
then showed the Princess precisely what to do
(chants of KINKED COLON, OPEN COLON! could be heard throughout the land)
And she departed the royal lav. planning never to utter the word Squatty again.
Oh my how our Queen was mistaken!
Not only did Squatty change the household position on pooping
Conversations about unicorns and Slick Rick emerged as well.
Our Princess pronounced the Squatty to be life changing.
Princess Kinked Colon.
Princess Open Colon
And our Queen, no longer fatigued from waiting outside potty door for Princess to produce,
Lived happily, SQUATTILY, ever after.

Wendy@Taking the Long Way Home says
February 17, 2016 at 5:56 amAt first I started to read this and thought, oh no she didn’t! But it makes sense. Maybe I need to recommend this to my patients. After all, I get to talk about poop all day long…
Susie @ Suzlyfe says
February 17, 2016 at 6:24 amI spent way too much time on the potty yesterday. colonoscopy prep. Nuff said.

February 17, 2016 at 7:04 amI need to invest in one of these! We saw the original pitch on Shark Tank and have bee contemplating ever since.
AmyC says
February 17, 2016 at 7:59 amThat squatty looks much nicer than the originals I see here in China ๐
Loved the tale!

February 17, 2016 at 9:07 amToo funny but yet, functional!
Jennifer says
February 17, 2016 at 9:12 amHilarious! I’d read about that position for child birth many years ago! Who knew they actually made one for the bathroom?

February 17, 2016 at 9:16 amThe mystic unicorn ad cracks me up so much! This post too!
Ordinarily I’m fine but I have had one miserable bout of being plugged up here during chemo and as the hour got later and later and things were failing to move along, I was starting to wonder if I could rig something up. ๐
Debra says
February 17, 2016 at 9:32 amMy legs are so short that I actually need to either A)refit my lav with a child’s toilet or B) add a couple of yoga blocks to my SP. Even at the regular SP height it has helped tremendously.
Bonnie K. Aldinger says
February 17, 2016 at 9:33 amI didn’t try ’cause I could see a jury-rig going really wrong really fast…
Jennifer Steck says
February 17, 2016 at 9:45 amNow that’s funny. I never knew they existed. ๐

February 17, 2016 at 10:43 amMy first encounter with a squat toilet in Europe as a teen surprised me, then i realized how much better it was. Sounds like a great product!

Shari Eberts says
February 17, 2016 at 11:26 amThis is so funny! We saw it on Shark Tank and ordered one for my husband. He tried it but was not a fan. He says he was too tall for it. I may have to try it myself now.
Ellen @ My Uncommon Everyday says
February 17, 2016 at 12:14 pmWell, I might have to get one of those. “Life changing” is pretty convincing praise!

February 17, 2016 at 2:40 pmI saw this years ago on Dr. Oz BEFORE he started to sell out in my humble opinion…. I have wanted it since but never got it. LOVE!
Laura @ This Runner's Recipes says
February 17, 2016 at 5:02 pmOh this post is too funny and adorable! I need to get one of those, and maybe even one for my dog to use outside so we don’t stand forever in the rain. If only they made puppy versions!
GiGi Eats says
February 17, 2016 at 5:07 pmGIRL – I AM THISCLOSE to ordering one, you best believe!
Carolann says
February 17, 2016 at 6:07 pmOh my gosh, I never saw that before. It’s hysterical. I love how you told a story to go along with it. What a great idea!
Farrah says
February 17, 2016 at 6:27 pmAhaha, that’s hilarious! ๐ I didn’t know these existed!
Catherine says
February 19, 2016 at 2:22 pmHilarious!
Seriously, though, I wish I’d had one of these during those dreadful few weeks during the first trimester of my pregnancy! All the fiber and probiotics in the world didn’t help. ๐
