Hey I'm new here and looking for some advise on withholding my 4 year old was cramped up so bad she was vomiting I didn't realise it was conaitipation at first as she usually goes normally , she obviously hurt Gerald recently and has been holding it ever since not even sure how long but she's been to gp and started on movical 3 on day one 6 on day 2 , another 3 on day 3 and still nothing ! I'm so worried to why nothing's happening yet can anyone advise me if this is Normal or If I should get a different product thanks a mill

The dosage for disimpaction sounds strange it normally goes 2,4,6,8,10,12 until it's liquid and the does to a maintenance dose of maybe two. Have a look at the poo nurses video . Good luck

My daughter withheld at age four because of a painful episode. Glad to hear you have got advice and Movicol as this was a lifesaver for us. My daughter managed to hold it for 3 days whilst she started the Movicol but eventually everything started to move. We had a few accidents as everything was very loose but then we reduced the dose and are now been on a maintenance dose for the last 6 months. I really hope things work out for you. My daughter if 5.5 now and things are so much better. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Good luck. Xx
