ok, no hard a fast rule here, but when I'm a real cycle of C/D, I typically have 2-4 days of C and then 1 day of D. Usually go 2-5 times until it feels like I am cleaned out. And the days of C are essentially days of nothing - no bowle movements, no urges. maybe some pangs the last day but not much. I'll also go through periods of D daily with going once or twice per daythis was typical for me for years. since making some changes inclduing doing hypno, some things have changed. I feel it more when I am C, meaning that I can have that full feeling and the urge to without much luck. But also more often, it works itself out with coming to D. I still go through periods of D for a couple of weeks. or even the explosive out of no where D. But les often then I used to .nancy
