Infant/toddler chronic constipation
- Whenever I try to stop the
movicol
, the constipation returns and I have to do the disimpaction again with 1 full sachet for a few days. Has she become dependent on it?? - Whenever I help her to squat, she poops alot, despite it being firm.

Picosulfate advice needed
He suggested adding in picosulfate to her usual 2
movicol
per day. He was supposed to phone me with dosage etc but hasn't. I started off with 10ml and nothing, tried 15ml and she had a really sore tummy but was successful in getting a poo in the loo.

Struggling to lose weight
I have to take
movicol
daily to make me go, and I don’t produce a lot (sorry tmi). I run every other day, I eat a calorie deficit and still can’t lose weight!!

6 year old still wetting the bed, please help!
She has to have
movicol
every other day because she bleeds when she poos otherwise. In February she was dry on and off most of the month and the beginning of March but the last few weeks she’s been wetting the bed every night. She doesn’t drink the recommended 6-8 glasses of water/cordial.

Was Constipation only. Now refusing to wee on loo
Our son 4yr 6mth has been on
Movicol
for about 5 weeks. We have started a strong but fun 'toilet time' routine which was supported really well by nursery. Reading books on the loo, foucs on 'sitting on the loo' and not 'producing something' and were starting to see results.

Movicol - sticky motions!
Fybogel doesn`t help either so I switched to
Movicol
. It is more effective but causes 5 or 6 mainly small bm`s each day which are "sticky" and it takes ages to clean myself after each one. This makes me very sore and has even caused minor bleeding a couple of times..

At my wits end, daughter hasn’t opened her bowels for 2 1/2 weeks.
We have found that
Movicol
is not making any difference know matter what dose be it 2 sachets or 12 sachets. For the past year her bowels movements are every 2 1/2 - 3 weeks and when she does go it is ginormous. We have been told to just keep up with the
Movicol
or enema when needed.

Internal Rectal Prolapse and Resulting Obstructed Defecation
My GP is very sympathetic but doesn't really have any answers apart from take 6 sachets of
movicol
at once if I can't go which works, but means I have to stay in the house close to the toilet all day.

4 year old still soiling after a disimpaction and maintenance dose.
His maintenance dose of
movicol
has stayed the same but we dropped out of the toilet time routine as he didn't seem to need it anymore. However, over the last couple of weeks we've noticed him soiling again, just small amounts in his pants, soft and very sticky and smelly.

4 Year Old small bladder capacity, how to help him, always urgently needing to go.
Referred to paediatrition who said he's constipated, I'm not convinced as he goes for a poo happily and comfortably once or twice a day, however we have started
Movicol
now anyway.

10 year old, bowel problems
Between the ages of 4 and 5 he had a few courses of
movicol
as GP thought that soiling might be due to constipation. It didn't really help, but he became better able to make it to the toilet on time.

3.5 year old on movicol
I have a little girl who has just been on
movicol
for the last month. After a good cleanout she's on half to one sachet a day. She passes stool regularly (everyday sometimes the odd day off) but now they're rounder in shape and all different sizes.

4yr old - suspected constipation?! Please help us.
We were prescribed
movicol
laxatives and were told to do a disimpaction which lasted 2 weeks. Following this he was a bit better, going every other day and good consistency whilst on 3 sachets of laxatives, however still bouts of overflow soiling inbetween.
