Help with whether disimpaction reached please

[PottyPrayers]

Hi, I am Day 9 of disimpaction with my 3.5yr old. Poo always type 4/5, had been on daily laxido sachet since weaning at 6 months. However, has had soiling accidents over last few months and realised she wasn’t pooing every day so decided to treat for constipation.

Thought we had reached the rusty water phase yesterday as had 2 poos that I thought were that but wanted to wait till this morning to make sure. Poo this morning is type 6/7 stool, custard thickness so feel a bit disappointed. I assume that until you reduce the laxatives the poo should stay water consistency, is this right and therefore we aren’t there yet? Or can it then start to thicken up a little given food is still being consumed and working its way through the bowel?

Thanks for any advice, I don’t want to stop too soon in error but also really struggling to understand the end point.
