leaking poo 🤦‍♀️

2 Replies

My daughter has a poo nearly everyday/every 2 days. She has a movicol every other day and her poos are soft and she has no problem passing them. The issue is she seems to leak poo in between so has stains in her pants and when I wipe her I can almost see it ready to leak again. The Movicol makes her poos bigger as they hold water and we have to wipe her (she’s 9 and has Special Neeeds) The Dr has recommended senna to try instead of the movicol. Not sure what to do as it seems constant. Anyone have any advice ?

it does sound like you need to disimpact her, I took my step daughter off movicol 2 years ago. She now has lactulose and a fibre sachet from holland and Barratt every day and is pooing nearly every day, so much better we have found.
