I am so tired of hearing about the frequency, size and shape of her bowel habits...why on earth is this a topic for conversation!? How can I cut her off without seeming insensitive; she picks the most inappropriate time to tell me all about it...sometimes when I’m trying to cook! UGH.

Just tell Mom "time and place, Ma."

Do not worry about appearing to be insensitive and cutting off Mum's Poop talk. There is nothing wrong at all with saying, Mum I am not interesting in hearing about your BMs.
Unless she is constipated or has the runs, you do not need a play by play.
It’s almost an obsession.
Quite frankly they are bored. This is the only NEW thing that happens in their life every day and they want to share.
