Standing in the shower seems to work best for me. Again no worry about loss of control trying.g to make it to the toilet.
One article claimed that the best position for receiving an enema is similar to that taken by linemen in a football game or sprinters before the gun goes off. I am addicted to Sim's position because that's how I got it as a kid..... on the floor, on my left side. Okay, now I'm horny.
Using a variety of positions, knee chest, left sims and on the back can be fun too but its easier to rotate positions if someone is administering the enema to you
Positions seem to be options depending on how motivated (read, "hot"), one might be going into an enema session. Supine has always been my position for maximum capacity. For the ultimate in the sensation of huge but welcome fullness, try lying prone and flat on a hard floor. If you've achieved over three litres of capacity, it's amazing to experience rising up on your elbows in an automatic and irresistable response to a filling ascending colon. Standing yields an orgasmic fill, especially with nipple stimulation. Inverted is breathtaking, quite literally, as the transverse colon weighs on the diaphragm: Very, very exciting, but perhaps best taken with a coach, especially if it's not easy to dismount from the postural equipment. Hotliner's "in the tub with legs up and spread" is not only classic, but it's definitely good for warding off pooling in the ankles and feet, if that's a problem. As plnbrnwrppr shares, any position that lets one's tummy take delight will be rewarding. Patiente Care says it well about "floating air or gas in the colon above the water so that the air can be expelled," and using sufficient soap does that differently and effectively as well. Oldster's repositioning technique is ideal for giving the first-ever enema - a caring, if somewhat athletic progression, though having the advantage of giving the willing recipient the opportunity to participate. Twobagger's twisted position is nearly as orgasmic as standing with an arched back. It can be really rewarding to be able to watch the water level as one fills. Bottom line (pun accidental), speedstick77 nails it: "Okay, now I'm horny."
I received all my enemas growing up on my back legs bent. I guess that's why it's my position of choice. Laying on my back on the bed bag on IV stand I can watch the bag empty ....
I'd been neglecting large volume enema (more than 2.5 qt for me) for several years. Last week I cleaned out thoroughly and revived an old practice.Rigged a couple of bags in tandem with a hand pump and plug nozzle. Got face down, spread eagle, floating on a soft waterbed.Co-ordinated deep breathing, stretching, ab-flexing and the hand pump to slowly take it to my max. Pure pleasure and nary a cramp!
I prefer laying on my back in the bathtub, with my feet on the front edge of the tub so I can lift my butt in the air, allowing the water to flow down into me.
I have found being on my back the most comfortable for larger volume (3+ quart) enemas. I have on occasion taken a gallon on my knees.
I prefer laying on my back for larger enemas, although its not always easy to get up once I'm full. All fours is good fun too but isn't so relaxing for larger volumes.
Standing up or on my knees i normaly take 3.5 to 4.5 litres depending on how i feel,today i took 4.5 and held it in for 5 mins,the most i have taken is 6 litres,that time i was on my knees with my chin on the floor and the enema was administered by my wife,at 4.5 litres it got realy uncomftable and quite painful,the all of a sudden the pain went and both bags were empy,i must admit i did not feel full even with 6 litres inside until i stood up
I lay on my back in the tub with my legs slightly bent on the top edge of the tub. I then use a colon tube to get into the transverse colon and let the warm water flow.
I like laying on my left side, with BOTH knees pulled up. it makes 3 liters a nice challenge..........
For a large enema, I seem to get the best result in the "knee-head-on-folded arms" position. gravity is helping and your stomach is naturally distended as well. Taking a large breath once in awhile helps inflate the intestinal cavity.Second best position seems to be what another RN posted where you start on left side and gradually roll to your back and then on to your right side to aid in water-flow through your intestines.
I start off lying on my tummy, take about 2 quarts like that, then roll over onto my right side to take another 2 quarts, then if I'm taking any more I might kneel for a further quart, then back on my right side for the last quart (6 is the most I have taken).
First of all, 2 quarts is huge enough for me, although I admit to doing 3 qts. on occasion. I indulge using two different positions, but never during the same enema. once my enema has begun, I maintain one position. Foremost I enjoy laying on my back so that I can masturbate during the enema. And in the past year I discovered the pleasure of taking an enema while standing. This position also provides a nice deep cleanse. I like to hang the bag from the shower curtain for my standing enemas, after all, water seeks its' own level.
I find I do best whille lying on my back. I use a colon tube and can drain a 4 qt bag without a problem. I know the water flows up into the colon whether I use a plastic nozzle or the tube but there is less pressure when I use the tube and it's easier to take the whole bag with the tube.I can still manage to take high volumes in the Sims position or on my tummy, but on my back works best.
On my back with my feet on the sides of a door frame, above my head and knees bent. The Flow stops when she says it stops, or I beg enough!
I like to take mine sitting on the floor slightly laying back watching myself in a mirror as I fill. Love to watch my tummy expand.
When my wife was giving birth to our kids, her midwife suggested taking a hot shower during labor, calling it the "midwives narcotic". According to both women, the hot water reduced the labor pains significantly. I've used that logic with enemas and from my experience, the best place to take a large enema comfortably is in the shower.
I always kneel, bag high for all enemas, often have done 5 quarts this way. love seeing my belly expand as i fill.
On my back with legs in stirrups best postion. Second best postion on my back with knees pulled back.
I use a variety of positions, usually starting on my left side and ending on my back with my legs raised up.
I think that the best position for taking a very large-volume enema is the knee-chest position with the legs spread apart; this position allows the belly to expand without problems, while facilitating the flow of the enema inside the bowels with the help of gravity (since the water descends into he intestines from a high point).
Does anyone know if 5 quarts is reasonably safe to take and hold? Any ideas or experiences would be appreciayed-thanks>
