Subject: Re: starting 6 yr. old on weekly enemas Author: Divorced mom [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: Wednesday, September 04, 2024, 03:40: pm In reply to: Joyce 's message, "Re: starting 6 yr. old on weekly enemas" on Friday, August 30, 2024, 05:06: pm Shelly, bless you and him. Lost count. Sorry. You have given him the enema three times now? Each enema session should be easier to administer. Sure you have, but make it as a relaxing event as possible. Rewarding for good behavior. Letting him watch favorite show or read favorite book while getting the enema. Growing up I got many enemas from my aunt (nurse). She used the bulb syringe to give enemas. Given on a table. Have you tried using the bulb syringe? Giving the enema on the bed or on a table instead of across your lap way? Agree with you about explaining. When I gave enemas I only told the basics. Felt was no need to go into details. Did you consider asking another mom to give the enema? A friend of mine does that. Her 5 yo b accepts getting a bulb syringe enema from her next door neighbor. Blessings and hugs [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

My aunt made the soapy enema water in a pan. Made in the kitchen sink. Swishing a bar of Ivory soap in a pan of warm water. Not strong! Just a mild soapy water enema. Given with a bulb syringe on the kitchen table. Towel on the table. This is how moms gave enemas in the late 50s. I also gave the soapy water enema to mine . Then gave a Florine enema after he expelled the soapy enema. Other moms told me they made the soapy water as you told. Best to consult with doctor before giving enemas.
