What did you say to avoid getting an enema

I didn't get enemas on a regular schedule, but if I complained of a tummy ache and mom decided the cause of the problem was I hadn't pooped lately, I would be given the choice of Castoria or an enema. I hated the taste of the Castoria and I didn't mind the small bulb enemas I usually got, so once I chose the enema it was pretty much a done deal. The only argument was how many bulbs I had to take. If I asked her to stop because I was full before the agreed number of bulbs had been taken, she didn't force me to take more, but would remind me that if not much poop came out, she would have to do it again, with more the next time. And, since I sort of liked those enemas, I was careful not to protest too much, but just enough so she didn't know I was enjoying it.

Once the enema prep started, nothing I could say would prevent it. Even if I did manage to go, it was still going to be given.

Nothing. Back in those days I did as I was told.

Anything I could. I got way more suppositories than enemas, but heard them being prepared or heard word of it and I ran, screamed, kicked, whatever. Never worked

Nothing worked. When it was going to happen it happened. Just had to go with the flow.
