2yr old was constipated but laxative seems to make it worse now, advice please
Without the
movicol
the gaps are getting bigger between bowel motions. He does have smelly wind and poos and I can normally tell when he needs to poo as he has a decrease in appetite. I am confused as to whether the
movicol
is helping and wondering if I need to go back to the doctor with him.

How long will this go on for?
My daughter has suffered from constipation for 4 years (she is now 6 1/2)and has been on
movicol
for the past 4 years. We only ever get an odd week with no accidents apart from that she can have a numbers of accidents in a day.

Wee accidents on re-introducing Movicol
Hi folks, We recently had to put our nearly 7 year old back onto a low dose of
Movicol
. In the 3 days he's been back on it it he has had 1 wee accident each day, the first being of epic proportions. It could be complete coincidence but I just wondered if anyone else has experienced this.

Help please!!
The doctors just keep prescribing
movicol
but I think we're beyond this now. I need to go back to them, but any help would be appreciated as I feel as though we're being fobbed off!

Poo poo poo
Any advise would be greatly welcomed if you have experience of this - it is so frustrating getting hold of the continence nurse for one but then she just tells us he sounds like he is backlogged but to play about with the dose of 1 or 2
movicol
until we get a sausage like poo x

Toileting Routine post disimpaction?
Last weekend we did a
movicol
clear out which appears to have been successful. The paediatrician we saw suggested that we encourage sitting on the loo after each meal but especially after teh evening meal as we can be more relaxed then.

Movicol, Sodium Picosulfate & now Senokot!! HEELLPP
After a disimpaction, we went on to 2 sachets of
movicol
a day. After a while, my son reverted back to soiling his pants. I tried to reduce the dose of
movicol
but any less than 2 sachets a day resulted in constipation again.

Movicol help please!
Hi, I have to give my 4 year old
movicol
for disimpacation, DR said give him 4 sachets for two days, then up it to 6 sachets for 2 days which I understand, but do I give him it a sachet at a time in a drink or do I make say 2 sachets in a 120ml of water then added it to his juice in one go?

My 3 year old will only poop in knickers
She was prescribed
movicol
2 to 3 sachets a day by gp which helped to soften the stools. But she now refuses to use the toilet or potty at all and becomes hysterical when I try to get her to sit on either one to poo.

Movicol Clear out - what to expect immediately afterwards.....
Hi. Having seen a paediatrician it has been confirmed that my 6 year old is constipated and probably has been for some time. So we need a clear out. He has recommended 8 sachets a day for 3 days. I get that it will be messy and we will need to stay around the house but what a about when we drop back

Chronic Constipation Frustration
Currently he's on 6
movicol
a day and 10ml dulcolax. Every so often I'll do a disimpaction with picolax. He is soiling on a daily basis, often 3-4+ times a day and cleaning his underwear is exhausting! The trouble is, he just doesn't seem bothered by it.

Movicol experiences
She has been on one dose
movicol
every other day but always having accidents. We have been back and forth seeing doctors and paediatricians and have finally been given a plan. This involves a 5 day increase in
movicol
, the last day her having 8 sachets.

We were told to follow the impaction regime with
Movicol
. Day 7 and 8 sachets she was in a lot of pain so I took her back to hospital and this time they x rayed and said she was clear and to stop the
Movicol
. I did this and we had 6 weeks of poos every other day on the toilet and no soiling.
