Dr. Donald Colantino answered

Irritability reflex: This may be a mild manifestation of an irritability of the bowel as a responsive reflex To awakening. If you're not experiencing urgent loose bowel movements as a result and are fine the rest of the time, I wouldn't be concerned about this symptom. For further concerns consult a gastroenterologist.
