What happens when you drop down to 6. Say you took 7 last night take 6 tonight? Remember stools should not be formed. The should be loose the consistency of soft server yogurt. I think people myself included often think that 3-4 bms means 3-4 well formed stools as we experienced when going once or less a day. Be Happy, Poop often! Also keep in mind, I'd rather have 2 very loose BM's over no BM's. ;o)
