Debby, good comments made by you.
Yes giving the older child (over 5 or so) an enema with the Higginson syringe is much less traumatic tha giving the enema with the bucket or bag.
Growing up, and in my later years, saw mothers who were using the bulb syringe for giving him an enema.
Then one day she would bring the enema bag into the room , or have it hanging up. What a big change that was!
I saw this with my younger cousin and others. No introduction, slowly,to the bag from the small enema bulb.
It is, as you told, easier to take, and administer, the enema using the higginsion syringe.
Recently talked with a mom. She uses the higginson syringe for giving and taking enemas. She told me her two take the enema much better now.
Better hang on to the one you have. Sounds like good quality. Will be hard to find that one again!
You can buy them on line. A good source is from OHN.
She let me squeeze the in line bulb on it. Filled up kitchen sink with warm soapy water. Was easy squeezing the bulb. Can give easier enema.
Her oldest one used to fight, fussy and carry on when she gave him an enema. Since using to higginson syringe there is no more resisting the enema session.
I will be getting one!
