Default Overnight Pooping

I have a 4 year old mixed breed dog. She sleeps on the floor in the room
with us. For the last couple of months, she has been pooping on the floor
overnight while we sleep. Its not every night, but pretty close, I'd say
4 to 5 nights per week sometimes. We have tried keeping her in her crate
sometimes, and sometimes she will even go in there while we are not home
during the day.

The poop is often not diarrhea, but is still much softer than normal poop
would be...its definitely not solid. And sometimes appears to have a
clear, mucus like substance mixed in with it.

I don't understand why, if she had to poop, she would not whine or cry or
try to wake us up (which is what she used to do).

Is it possible that there is a medical reason for this, or is this a
behavior thing?
