[ffionparsons]

Hi all

I'm new here..Were on day 6 of disimpaction with my 4 year old . she has been having watery stools for 2 days. However today although hes had 7 sachets hes just not had any more poo? is this a sign that everything has been flushed out??

We were told by continence nurse we had to get to brown water before reducing medication with our boy. Good luck to you both and I hope it goes well.

Once you get to watery stools, don’t just stop - you have to reduce by 2 everyday and get down to pooping a soft smooth sausage, then find the balance of medication for them to poop that every day. You may need to up it or reduce it accordingly. Doctor I saw at the hospital told me to go on to a site called ERIC eric.org.uk/pages/category/... for help and support. Also to look at dgt.nhs.uk/our-services-spe... if doesn’t come up with video type in Movicol. They refer to the Bristol stool chart and poop should be at type 4.
