The last few ounces in the bag

My mother, clever parent that she was, somehow got me to think it was my idea to take the whole bag. At first I couldn't, but I kept trying, and it didn't take long. For me, an enema just isn't an enema without that "kiss" at the end.

Don't forget the visual impact of the bag going empty. It can be good or bad, depending on the circumstances.

I love seeing the bag sucked flat at the end, or the empty bag if transparent, but I remember my daughter getting freaked seeing just how much I expected her to take. She was 11 or 12 at the time and I would put about a quart in my bag and she would most of the time take it without too much difficulty. One time I decided to use a clear plastic bag for her enema, and put the same amount in it. When she saw the amount of water one quart actually is she freaked out saying there was no way that would all fit in her little tummy, and she was not going to take it. I had to pour it into my bag to show her it was less than half full, like before. That settled her down and I asked her which bag she wanted. She said lets try the clear one, I want to see how much I can take. I think it became a bit of a game from then for her to prove she could take it.

Don't focus on how much is in the bag.Focus on how much is in your colon.

I hang the two quart red open top bag quite high on the bathroom door, probably higher than the three feet recommended. Because of that height the water flows in fairly quickly and I can hear a suction sound when the bag is totally empty. When I want a more relaxed and slower enema, I use a plastic enema can sitting on the cocunter next to the sink in the bathroom with a transparent tube and can see when the water is totally out of the can and halfway down the tube. As I breathe out the water in the tube almost emptys and that is when I shut off the flow.

I like to lay still and relax until I get the 4th round of cramps, and I leave the nozzle in place until time to get on the toilet, so I always take the very last drop. I like to watch the bag flatten as it fills me, and the sight of that flat bag is very satisfying. I agree with LisaK that the focusis on how much is in your colon, but as long as you don't use too much volume, enjoy watching the progress as your bag empties into you!

I rarely worry about the last few ounces but if I do I just squeeze the bag and empty. Usually it all flows in without any problem

I have never had any problems taking the entire bag. It all flows in me with nothing left in the bag. As I said in an earlier post, I love to hear the bag gurgle.

I let the bag empty completely. The water goes down in the tube until it is about 14-16" above my ass and stays there, more or less, until I take the nozzle or tube out. In that way, I know that I have taken the full 4 quarts without a doubt. For whatever reason, though, it does not make a gurgle when the bag empties and the only water is in the tube.

What AZDiane said about "An enema just isn't an enema without that 'kiss' at the end!!" How well put! 'Haven't had too many enemas where there's much water left, it's usually "all gone!" With an open top bag or combo bag I've noticed that when those last oz's. go down the tube and the bag goes flat, the bag does a little "shutter" kinda' like it's having its' own little orgasm!!!! With the open top also there's no mistaking that noticeable "sucking" sound that last bit of water makes as it goes down the outflow tube!!! MMMMMmmmmmmm!!!!! 'Just love it!

with a "Click!,"

Growing up my mother would fill the bag with two quarts. I was encouraged to take what I could and usually took a good amount even if it meant not emptying the bag. Those enemas always cleaned me out to mom's satisfaction so there was never an issue.

When the bag is close to empty I will close the clamp, remove the hose, blow some air into the bag, re attach the hose, open the clamp and squeeze the bag, its like using a BIG enema bulb, the last few ounces of solution RUSHES in and I love the feeling,give it a try if you haven't already, let me know how you liked it or did not like it.

On those rare times when i can't quite get all of my enema in and there are a few ounces left .. i just relax and wait for more room .. i leave the clamp open and in just a little bit of time .. 😃 .. it's all in .. i love it.

Gretchen, that is such a fun idea! I love a good gush at the beginning of an enema and will definitely give this a try as well.

I've found that a little air at the end of the fill not only enhances the enema by adding a little more pressure, but aids in a good full release - complete with appropriate sound effects. And the sound of the water churning inside as a little air is injected reminds me of mom's bulb enema sessions.

The higgy is a great tool for emptying the bag and adding a little air...

Oh, to be so close...yet so far!

In my last enema session a few days ago, I thought a total four quart fill was within my grasp. Lying on the floor curled up in an almost fetal position I was awaiting the final gurgle from my bag as the last of the enema drained into me. Alas....it was not to be. Mounting pressure and the feeling of a major wave of cramps coming on forced me to close the clamp. The illusive four quart fill was not to be!

After I got up and examined the bag there was about 2 oz. remaining!! Oh so close....

Have fun and play safe!

When taking an enema I watch the bag go down and I let it go until the bag is flat.

The bag has to be closed - like a hot water bottle, before air can be used to force out the last few ounces. Ideally this should be done before the start of the administration using a puffer bulb to pump in air via a Y-connection. The bag can then be made to bulge ominously. The air rises to the top once the bag is hung up, and then there is the sound of a rapid rush of air down the tubing once the water has all gone. This can induce intense colic - for those who enjoy this!

Being the engineer that I am I figured that if an enema is given slowly and let's say it takes five minutes to take the whole bag, the first part of that enema has been working away for some time before the last part of the enema enters you. So if you then take out the pipe and lie there holding it for another ten minutes you will have had the benefit of some of that warm soapy water doing its thing for nearly 15 minutes. That sounds like it would be a pretty decent clean out in almost anyone's book. Next step is for me to get out my stopwatch and check my assumptions.

I always take 4 quart enemas with one of my klystra gallon bags, and there is nothing sexier than watching as it slowly fills my colon!!!

Seeing the closed top bag sucked flat does instill a greater sense of accomplishment in me, however psychological. I get the feeling that I've "been a good boy and taken all of my enema."

That said, if the bag flattens, great. If not and I feel rightly filled or even the urge to evacuate, not a big deal.

On occasions when progress is impeded before I feel satisfied I'll reposition the nozzle and elevate the bag; sometimes that does the trick.

Some days, or on some fills, it's just not gonna happen. No reason to push too hard.

I mostly use HWB style bags.

I consider a flat bag to be empty, although there ARE usually a couple of ounces left.

By the time the bag has been completely filled more than a time or two, it has stretched by that much, so not to worry!!

I use HWB style bags mostly. I am more concerned with how much is inside me than how much is left behind in the bag and hose.

As my aunt would say "good to the last drop"

I love to see the enema that is empty, you are there you hope to end and there is always too much water but you have to take it all to be a good boy

I enjoy seeing the bag empty to the last drop. But it is not essential. I like Gretchen's idea above and will try it soon.

I don't know why, but when really empty the bag isn't just flat, but sucks itself together. Perhaps the fact that water is more dense than air means that the water in the hose actually sucks the bag dry.

It may be that a closed bag will suck itself together, but my 4 qt open bag does not do that. I can barely see the water level thorough the wall of the bag and as it approaches empty, I have to decide what to do next. If I let it go totally empty, then I have to bleed the air out of the hose and nozzle before I give myself the next one. Sometimes I stop the flow before it reaches empty. If I am doing just one filling, then I let it go all of the way and the water level in the hose ends up about 15"-20" above the floor.
