Undigested food

Hello, new to posting on here... My daughter has been going through her first disimpaction and we are day 10 and 4th day on maximum dose for age... We are still only getting very dark green/black gritty poo, but my biggest question is if its normal to actually see undigested food and I'm not just talking sweetcorn... We get what I can only call poo soup every morning with chewed up bits of food that she had for dinner, then the same after breakfast and lunch but that's mixed in with the dark gritty stuff... I've been seeing things that I generally passed of as hard to digest food ie carrots, fruit skin, but today I've been shocked to see chewed up spaghetti hoops, bits of melon and what looks like bread and other bits of not poo colour that I can't make out... Please help if this is normal?
