We actually took a trip to the beach a few weeks ago, before school started
We took along my Husband's parents. It was supposed to be our treat. but they insisted on paying most of their own way.
Sooo, when I was in a situation similar to that which would have lead to an enema had we been home, I found a solution.
Let the kids have a whole day with their grandparents. The grandparents were thankful for the opportunity to bond.
I skipped lunch.
My husband found a chain drugstore and bought a twin pack of the generic house-brand version. and the smallest bottle he could find of Milk Of Magnesia or again, actually the “house brand” generic.
I covered the mattress with a beach towel and used the pillow we had brought with us under the hips, a couple of hotel pillows for under my head. My husband brought me two hotel glasses of ice water, and I took a higher-than recommended dose of the milk of magnesia. Then I took off my control brief, and got on the bed in Simms Position, and my husband gave me one of the Fleet enemas. We got it all in, and I just realized, and said, “ You know that is the first enema I didn't self-insert and self inject since I was 9 years old!!” It WAS given by one of two people in the entire world that I trust enough to ever allow them to give me an enema!!
Can't think about THAT any more right now I've got an enema to retain, and it's causing that slight pain on the left side that I have experienced with Fleet before.
With a washcloth as a bite rag I WAS able to keep it in 15 minutes!
A LOT of volume, including the large hard part, I had been concerned about DID come out.
I lay around for several minutes, and about 45 minutes after I started the first enema, repeated the whole process, including the High dose of Milk of Magnesia.
Not until the milk of magnesia had done it's thing was I able to say it was a “clear return”
