Have we reached disimpaction

[Roastlover]

My 4 year old daughter is on day 7 and she's at 8 sashes.I'm unsure if she has reached it or do we keep going?

Her last one was like gravy with no poo in it

[Yaleamanda]

No, you need to keep going until you reach watery stools with no lumps consistently for a few days before you start reducing the doses down extremely slowly ie one dose every few days until you reach a suitable maintenance dose to remain on.

[Roastlover]

But this had no lumps

[Roastlover in reply to Roastlover]

It was just gravy

[Roastlover]

The lumps are the atual nappy itself

[Yaleamanda in reply to Roastlover]

It needs to look like clear tea. That's watery with no lumps, nothing else.

[Roastlover in reply to Yaleamanda]

Oh I see thank you for your help

[Roastlover in reply to Yaleamanda]

Have we reached it yet?I can see the blueberries in her nappy but no poo and it looks like the colour of tea

[Yaleamanda in reply to Roastlover]

Can you post a picture?

[Roastlover in reply to Yaleamanda]

Sorry my phone is playing up it wouldn't let me send you a picture so I've added it at the top,can u see it

[Yaleamanda in reply to Roastlover]

I can only see the original picture.

[Roastlover in reply to Yaleamanda]

It won't let me post to your comment so I've put the picture on the news feed

We are on day 5 with our 3.5 year old, his nappy looked just like that yesterday (6 sachets) and I have the same question on if we have reached it. Be interested to see some replies

[Yaleamanda in reply to Lolsparts]

As per my comment you want watery stools with no lumps consistently for a few days before you start reducing the doses down extremely slowly ie one dose every few days until you reach a suitable maintenance dose to remain on.

Hi Yaleamanda Lolsparts Roastlover we'd like to clarify that you only need to see rusty water with bits in on 2 occasions to know the bowel is clear. More information can be found in eric.org.uk/childrens-bowel... and the Podcast recorded by our Continence Nurse: eric.org.uk/podcast/episode... Best wishes, ERIC

Thanks for replying to us, it’s difficult when others give advice but not necessary the right advice. Thank you.
