Is it normal to get two enemas in the hospital? (First prone, second knee-chest)

Has anyone else had an enema in the hospital and also gotten it twice every time?

For me, it’s always two rounds. The first one I lie flat on my stomach (prone position). The second one they make me get into the knee-chest position. They even tell me to push like I’m having a bowel movement so my anus protrudes more.

Is this the standard procedure everywhere? Just curious how common the two-round + knee-chest method is.

When I was in the hospital a few years ago and badly constipated after surgery, I couldn't even get one enema. All I got was a suppository that didn't work followed by a harsh laxative.

I have been in the hospital twice in the past 10 years for stays of about a week each. The first time I received 2 fleet enemas but about a week apart. My 2nd experience was similar to that of @Stump . I couldn't buy an enema although I badly needed one. During that same period, I had day surgery for hemmorhoids and they gave me a fleet beforehand. What kind of enemas did they give you @Uvh ?

Using a syringe, but I don’t know what the specific liquid is either
