I am going through disimpaction at the minute and going to 8 a day tomorrow. Struggling to get her to take the movicol.

Yes we do. Just adjust the amount of water you mix with them.

You can make them all up together and as Alicass said just adjust the water. It can then be stored in the fridge for 24 hrs so you can give it to them throughout the day.
