Bulb vs. Bag vs. Can

I grew up on the bulb as a small kid.

It was floating in a bowl of soapy water while Mom sat waiting on the closed toilet seat for me to enter.

I was stripped naked before her pulling me over my lap.

Depending if this was an issue of bowel movements, these enemas were soothing.

If because I misbehaved, or just cranky, I got a REAL enema from her.

Filled fully with hot soapy water, while she worked the bulb in and out.

I remember being filled with water and air, to make me hurt, and later, the embarrassing gas as I released.

Bulb is my favorite for giving enemas.

Bag for sure. There’s something about watching the bag deflate as you receive the contents that turns me on. There’s something about watching her watch the bag deflate as I give her an enema turns me on.

.

If I were giving I think I'd want to use a bag. Sure the bulb has multiple insertions, but you have to manage it all the time. With a bag you get it set up and beyond controlling the flow rate you are free to make sure she's comfortable and touch/rub her to keep her relaxed, etc. Even just more free to look at her and se how she's taking it and if it needs to be slowed down or if she's too full.

Bag for me all the way, too much work with a bulb if you're doing them alone.

I recieved enemas from the bulb ever since I was a child. It's still my favorite to this day.

I have a couple of bulbs that I will use for a quick spritz if I don’t have time for an extensive enema session - they do the trick cleaning my rectum so that I can enjoy some time with a butt plug. I do, however, have a strong preference for my bags and especially my 4 quart enema bucket. They allow me to enjoy series of flushes of 2-4 quarts each. The bucket is my go-to as clean up is a cinch.

When I had my first enema, it was with a bulb. I was 4 years old and apparently constipated. My aunt took me upstairs, stripped me and lubed me with vaseline. Then the bulb pipe was lubed up and inserted several times. I don't know if there was soap in the water, but I was putting up quite a fuss before the enema was started. I remember that I liked the feeling of the insertions. I was allowed to sit on the potty and eliminate and then it was repeated. This left quite an impression on me and I have always preferred a bulb if someone else is administering. The bag is definitely easier when alone, but there is something about the bulb...

I like Esmarch's mug

I have both bag and bulb enemas. I prefer the bag, but a bulb is great when you have your partner over your knee for a good filling. My early experiences for self enemas were with an open top bag, which I liked since you could add more water as you filled up with the enema. I've always appreciated the classic enema equipment that was used at home during the 1950's and 1960's.

We have a combination bulb AND bag enema. A standard 10 oz. vaginal douche bulb with a long, curved multispray nozzle and shield has a hose fitting in the flat base and is connected to the big enema bag. This allows giving a large volume of fluid from a bag through a bulb syringe and the large douche nozzle can be slid in and out of the rectum and the bulb can be occasionally squeezed to provide a nice gush of fluid. Any leakeage can be discouraged by inserting the nozzle full length and pressing the shield firmly against the anus. Provides the advantages of both bag and bulb all in one. Sherema used to sell these douche bulbs with the hose fitting on the bottom long ago, but it’s easy to add the hose fitting to a douche bulb yourself. They are fun.

I enjoy bags, buld douche syringe, JBL bag and normal bulb enema syringe.

Only ever had a bulb enema would love to know if the sensation of a bag is different as I’ve yet to experience this

Some givers are more experienced with bulb and other with bag or maybe both. So if giver is more experienced with certain tool I am more the happy to be on receiving end.

Both, usually start with enema bulb and then enema bag, but sometimes just bulb is enough. If enemas solution is in small amount then enema bulb all the way. Very easy to use and makes sexy sounds too....

@Bethxo I think the bulb is good because you can administer more than one to the patient in a sort of punishment repeating.

The bag on the other hand is good because it can be combined with other procedures like a speculum or an injection!

Bulb insertions in my early years was what got me hooked on enemas. Until my early 20s that was the only kind of enema I had tried. Even now the sight of an old-fashioned bulb enema gives me a thrill. The multiple insertions that go with it are also a bonus.

Bag enemas and Higginson and a plethora of different nozzles were revelations to me. The double balloon nozzle plus Higginson puts me in Nirvana.

It's nice to goof around with a bulb/douche syringe but when the rubber hits the road, the bags are always winners in my book. I need the volume.

The bulb, very soo intime.

The bag is what I usually use for my enemas. For years we had an 8oz enema bulb, the standard adult, drug store variety. I would use it for a quickie enema.

One time I let myself get very constipated. It was a weekend. It was early in the morning. My wife and I were still in bed. I wasn't feeling well because of the constipation. I told my wife. She asked if I would like for her to give me an enema. I agreed. I got everything ready. I gave her the full enema bag and laid down next to her. She started to give me the enema but I was only able to take a very small amount. After expelling what little I had in me we tried again, with the same results.

My wife got up and went in the bathroom with the enema bag. She asked where the enema bulb was. I told her. I heard her getting it and some other stuff. A few minutes later she came in the bedroom with the bulb and a small bowl with some liquid in it. She said that it was a mineral oil enema. She squeezed 3 bulbs of the oil into me and told me to hold it for at least half an hour but an hour would be better. The oil worked and she gave me an SSE and rinse later. This happened several more times over the next 10 or so years.

The bulb eventually wore out and got tossed. I/we went through a few enema bags as well over this time. One day I needed an enema and the enema bag we had tore. I told my wife. She said we need to go to the drug store anyway so we could get a new one. While at the drug store I couldn't decide if I wanted an open top fountain syringe or a combination syringe. My wife said that I might as well go ahead and get both since we would probably need them eventually. While we were there looking my wife asked about the enema bulb. I told her we didn't have one at the moment. They didn't have any bulb syringes with the enema/douche bag stuff. A female clerk came by and asked if we needed any help. Before I could say anything my wife blurts out that we were looking for an enema bulb. She said that they were out of stock on them and had been for some time.

As the clerk walked away my wife looked down at the display of bags and douche bulbs. She picked up one of the douche bulbs. She said that this one would have to do for an enema syringe.

We took our items and checked out. The cashier casually mentioned that it looked like somebody needed some serious help with constipation. My wife said that I was the one that needed it. She went on to say that I wear one out every so often and we might as well get enough to last for a while.

On the way home my wife opened the douche bulb and looked at it. She said that she wanted this new bulb for her and that I could have her old douche bulb for my enemas.

Since that day calls the mineral oil enemas my mineral oil douches. As in, "Do you need a mineral oil douche with your pink douche bulb." The first couple of times she used the douche bulb she commented on the larger diameter of the nozzle and asked if it didn't hurt. I told her it is a bit uncomfortable going in but once inserted it's not bad at all. Now when I need an oil enema she usually will give me 2 or 3 bulbfuls and that always does the trick.

I prefer bags over bulbs. Can get more fluid in and deeper.

Bulb provides more fun as it takes more insertions and it also makes lovely sound, but at the same time it can introduce air in rectum which in turn produce cramping.

Bag is more suitable for bigger volume enemas and it is more convenient as you can hang it especially if giving to yourself or if someone else is giving you enema then they can lower or lift enema bag to decrease or increase flow.

Bulb perhaps better for smaller enemas, it can also be more intimate as it takes more insertions, give can also control the squeeze..

Oh and it gives that lovely sound.

Bag on the other hand more suitable for bigger volume enemas and it also allows for deeper delivery of solution.

And yes it also give control of flow, depending of how low or high the bag is being held/hanged.

Now be a good girl/boy and present your bum for your enema.

Always been a bag guy. Easier and more erotic for me.

Lately I found a 600ml bottle with pump. The feeling is WAY different and erotic.

I'm a bag guy, mostly for the sake of convenience. However, a douche bulb has it's place when a partner is using it on me.

Bulb enemas bring back fond memories... I love feeling her part my cheeks for access to my hole, the multiple insertions, feeling the solution getting squeezed in, the anticipation as she refills the bulb and even some air getting pumped in.

But a bag, slowly draining in allows us to cuddle, etc., as the bag empties.

Around here, the bag is pretty much king when it comes to clean out enemas. We rarely use a bulb for anything anymore. We both want to know how much volume we are taking, within reason, i.e. to the ounce/ml. We aren't shooting for scientific accuracy, but a close measurement nonetheless. So, when we are wanting the stimulation of multiple insertions, and the ability to use a flow rate from barely felt to a fast rush, we have discovered the piston syringe. For those not familiar, the piston syringe is that huge "hypodermic" syringe so popular in those cheesy Japanese enema videos. They are graduated, so the "dose" is measurable down to the last ml. A slow push of the plunger produces a barely felt flow, a fast one, a stimulating rush of liquid. (Works great for causing urgency.) We've discovered that the slow, easy fillings result in the ability to accept up to 50% more volume, if a really big, high enema is wanted. The best part: although glass pistons are pricey (+/- $500 for 500 or 1000 ml models), a 300ml plastic one is available from Amazon for $19.95. 500ml syringes are available from time to time on Amazon, but usually cost around $50.00. I've never looked on eBay. The main drawback for the piston is that it is pretty much a two person affair. So, if you're solo, it is difficult, but not impossible. Solo enemas can be done by attaching a short latex hose between the piston nozzle and the preferred end nozzle. Given that most of our asses have a preference for the size and shape of nozzle, a very short "connector" hose allows for the use of whatever nozzle your anus desires. For solo, just use a longer hose.

I prefer using a bag, easier and better cleaning results. i hardly ever use a bulb

I think anyone who takes/gives enemas for fun needs bulbs and bags. What is more fun than an enema with a douche bulb? The multiple insertions of that large curved nozzle is as good as it gets, whether giving or getting.

I don't care for the bulb. The bag is good for a relaxing slow enema but my favorite is my disposable (many times usable) plastic enema bucket. I love to watch the level go down plus its so easy to add solution if needed. have fun everyone.

I love both, but especially if only I prefer the bag.
