4 year old - first disimpaction. Please help
He's in a huge amount of discomfort but we're unsure if this is still due to actual pain from impaction or whether the impaction has cleared and it is fear of the process along with bloating from the
movicol
itself.

Withholding
We have tried
movicol
, lactilose and osmolax and we sometimes do 120g a day and he still won’t go! The problem is trying to get him to Drink that amount of liquid. He is so determined not to have anything to do with going to the toilet.

Feeling like a failure
My son is 5 and been on
movicol

3 year old refuses to poo. Please help me!
She’s on
movicol
which we have reduced to try and encourage her to do it without it, but she just hates going. We are day 3 of no poo. This happens regularly. Affects her mood and obviously makes her very uncomfortable. Once she starts to actually poo she gets excited to see it go into the toilet.

10ml senna for 3 year old
My son 3 Been on
movicol
for impactation for almost 2 weeks, no movement other than leakage. Doctor has now prescribed (over the phone) senna liquid 10ml daily a hour or two before bed. Everything I've read online says the dose is way too high.

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.

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..
