Older boy with a busy life...disimpaction help!
The doc has said we can just do a 1 day one and give him 8 sachets of
movicol
at once and ‘wait for the magic to happen’!! I took him off
movicol
as it was making the accidents worse, not better! What do those who have done disimpaction do about school/sports etc etc????

Could it really be that easy??
My daughter has been suffering with constipation and withholding since she started school (she’s now 10) and despite taking her to the doctor repeatedly we’ve always been told there’s nothing to be done and just to keep her in a routine and give her
Movicol
.

Good news after all
We have been seeing a Pediatrician at the hospital for months now, he has been on
movicol
all these years, he refused to sit on the toilet or do poo normally without shouting and jumping. We kept a toilet routine for him to sit on the toilet twice or three times a day; and the surprise!!!!!!

Conflicting advice from 2 different paediatricians re chronic constipation
He said we should be giving her senokot/senna during a clear out and that once she reaches watery diarreah to then reduce the
movicol
as that means the impaction has cleared.

Movicol types
Normally my daughter has the paediatric
movicol
but this time we have been given
movicol
-half instead. I have queried it with the surgery but am still waiting for them to call back. Does anyone else have this for their child - the ingredients look very similar but the box says not for children.

New here looking for advice
She used to suffer with constipation so was prescribed
Movicol
daily. Since toilet training she hasnt needed the
Movicol

Disimpaction
(Due to him having autism he doesn’t really understand what’s going on and just gets stressed if I try to tell him to uncross his legs and relax) He’s now on 12
movicol
a day as well as 5ml of Senna, I’m not sure if I should reduce it now or keep him on the maximin dose of 12 a day as I’ve read that

Starting school in nappies
He was on
Movicol
for over 2 years but won’t tolerate it in anything any more. He doesn’t communicate when he needs to go or if he has gone wee or poo so is completely reliant on nappies still.

What to expect from school?
She is prescribed
movicol
and lactulose - although both of these are a struggle to get down her. When she first started school I explained all to her teacher and she was really relaxed and just took it in her stride. She since has a new teacher.
