How long does it take to set up your enema

Okay, this is a bit silly but if anyone remembers - in one of humorist Jean Shepherd's movies he talked about how fast his "old man" could fix a flat tire.... seems his father would actually time how fast he change a flat - taking pride in doing it so quickly.

Well, I often think of that scene when I go about setting up my enema bag to begin an enema session - it's got to be less than five minutes from going to get my box of enema gear to the beginning of soapy water flowing into me.

I wonder if others think about how fast they set things up and begin their enemas...

Since my childhood enemas seem to have taken forever to begin, wonder too if anyone had the opposite experience - having it happen so fast you didn't have time to think?

If I'm doing a two quart morning quickie, the whole thing takes ten minutes from selecting the equipment to cleaning up after expelling and the shower, which is where the bag and hoses also get cleaned.

The set-up probably takes sixty seconds from the time the bag and hoses are in my hands to the time the water starts flowing inside me.

OK, I'm NOT talking about a shower where I also wash and condition my hair.

My morning enema is usually done in the bathroom and takes anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes once I am up. That includes filling the bag, lubing and inserting the nozzle, getting into position .. which varies from hands and knees .. butt up boobs down .. or leaning over the side of the tub, starting the flow, holding for a bit, and then releasing it.

My morning enema is my way to start the day and though I love it .. it is something I do as part of getting ready for whatever.

Obviously it takes longer to set up a total system cleanout than a quick 1-round enema, like a foreplay enema or something. There is more involved. The knee-chest position has to be used. There are oral laxatives to be taken at a particular time in the process, etc. then the toilet has to be set-flushed, with the lid up and the seat down, there won't be time to do it with that kind of enema.

So, the correct response is-For which type of enema?

Longer than i'd like !

About 2 minutes tops. I keep a jones can under the sink with the tubing and douche nozzle already attached. A bar of ivory is left in the can. I turn on the hot water faucet and while the water is getting hot I'm removing my pants and underware. About this time water is hot and I let about an inch of very hot water into the can to melt some of the soap. Water is then regulated to a cooler temp and rest of can is filled. I don't use a lubricant as I 'm so used to enemas the nozzle goes right in. Sometimes I heat the nozzle under hot water so I can really appreciate the feeling of it going in. Insert, unclamp the hose and lay down on some towels. Maybe not even two minutes.

Depending on what enema I'm doing. my husband can have a foreplay enema ready inside of 5 minutes.

When I do a system cleanout, I don't want to go too fast. The bisacodyl tablets are going to take a certain time to kick in anyway, so 15 minutes is OK. Just important to get everything right.

Mostly between 5 and 10min ...

Wow! I am obviously in the wrong league! A "quick" enema and an post-rinse is going to eat up almost an hour for me, -and that is if I set up my H2O heating on a timer to have ready for me. (Of course, I am totally "anal" about getting the temperature exactly right for me.)

My "real" enema sessions, a couple of good clean-outs, then a long pleasure enema always take at least 2 hours, start to finish.

I am sure those of you who are doing "quickies" just use warm tap water and don't pay much attention to exact temperature. But what about clean-up? That always takes me a while. And before I start, I usually rinse my equipment out with H2O2 to disinfect. Time adds up.

Good thing I am not racing anyone......

The frustrating thing about getting started quick doesn't mean it finishes quick! It takes me two minutes from getting my bag to having water flowing, but I wish it were that easy to go through the rest of the process! If only the body had symmetry! 😃

As much as I get a kick out of thinking to myself how quickly I can get setup, once I begin my enema I then like them to last for a long time. So after the quick setup, I spend about hour or more in enema euphoria..

I take all my enemas on my bed, where I can stretch out and feel totally comfortable. An SSE enema will take me all of five minutes. First, I fill a two-quart glass measure with warm water and drop in a bar of Ivory soap in the bathroom, then place a waterproof pad on the bed and cover that with a thick towel. Next, I place a tripod alongside the bed on which I hang my Klystra silicone bag with hose, tip, and clamp. Lastly, I retrieve the two-quart soapy solution, pour it in the bag, and I'm set.

A two-quart coffee enema takes about fifteen minutes to prepare. While 1-¼ quart coffee is brewing, I set up the bed and equipment, then reduce the temperature of the coffee for immediate use by adding ¾ quart cold water (from the fridge).

A two-quart flaxseed enema takes thirty minutes to boil and strain the mixture, plus another hour to allow for sufficient cooling prior to use.

Regardless of what type of enema I use, they are never quickies. I want to enjoy them to the fullest. Once the bag is empty, I usually replace the tip with a butt plug that tends to aid in retention.

It's usually about 15 minutes between bringing the equipment out, and the first insertion. Generally about 40 minutes total per, which translates into 2 hours for my set of three... 😄 .. I don't like to rush;.I also used to try and extend the process when I was giving... 'cause i enjoyed the view... 😁

Not a too short time, I like anticipation and set up is a very important part of it. Obviously if in hurry it take less than 3 minutes, but must of funny is missed.

Anticipation and retention are my favorite parts and if possible I take a good care of each.

Happy E.

I wash all my equipment before and after use so it takes a while to get set up.

Because I have to hide all my stuff and wait until the enema warden will be away for enough time, which can limit the type of enema I'm setting up; For a quick 2Q, maybe about 15 minutes for the bag prep and then the lube job, douche nozzle inserting and the filling of about 10 minutes. If I have the time and want to do a series of enemas. then get the good stuff out of hiding and hook up the 4Q bag with whatever enema solution I'm using will take about 10 to 15 minutes. Then for the nozzle selection, lube me, lube nozzle, insert, and then with a slow flow, about 15 to 20 minutes for the filling. Then it's time to go sit on the toilet until the enema stops draining, wich can take longer than I would like. Clean up with soap or detergent, followed by a disinfecting equipment rinse with some very dilute Clorox, dry and hide all the stuff; about another 1/2 hour.

I guess my prep time is a little longer than most. I like to heat the water to abiout 110 degrees and then let it cool to 100. While waiting for the water to cool, I select which nozzle and lubricant Im in the mood for. So from beginning to the very end of the enema I'd say around 45 minutes.

If I'm using Ivory soap, I let it soak in hot water 15-30mins stirring or massaging it occasionally, then fill the bag. If I'm doing just a rinse, about 2mins, fill the bag, insert nozzle, and off to the races..... 😁

Maybe 5 to 10 minutes at the most. Run some warm water, put in a tablespoon of salt, some Dr. Bronners Castile soap, get commfortable on the floor, bed, or wherever, and let the enjoyment begin.

About 5 minutes are sufficient for enema prepration.

A bit longer than it used to. These days I am married to someone who does not yet know of my klysmophia, something I hope to change, so I need to get the bag out of hidding, which takes all of about 30 seconds. When I lived in my condo I could leave my bags hanging on the shower curtain rod most of the time for instant access. Plus, hot water was intantly available. Heck, now it takes alomost a minute for the water to run hot. I squirt baby shampoo right into the bag so I don't have to swish a bar of Ivory around in the sink and add it cup by cup to the bag.

So, though my prep time is now a bit longer, I can still have the bag filled and be ready to insert the nozzle within 3 or 4 minutes from making the decison to take an enema, about a minute longer than it used to take at the condo.

WHy would anyone want to rush an enema? I take a coffee 2qrt enema in the hot tub every AM and preparation is about 20 mins. The injection takes about 5-15 mins depending on how fast I run the enema in, or whether I am a bit blocked up. Then there is the required 10 min. hold time to let the coffee enema work. All together it is 45 mins to one hour. This is quality time!

WHy would anyone want to rush an enema?. . . .

Some enemas are rushed because you just want to have an enema, other enemas are extended relaxation exercises that go on for an hour or two.

I don't like to rush an enema so setting up takes from 10 up to 20 minutes. I like to make sure the bathroom is clean and neat before having an enema. Also I'm quite careful about making sure I'm comfortable during the enema. I take my enemas on the bathroom floor so I make sure I have at least two bath towels under me and an a pillow under my head. The enema takes about 5-20 minutes depending on the solution and size. And I take quite some time expelling. So a single enema is usually done just about under on hour. The following about 40 min each.

I like it to take time. For me thats relaxing and enjoyable.

I always allow an hour minimum from start to finish. I have a heated tile floor in the bathroom and I adjust the temperature well before I begin, spread a towel on the floor, get out the enema pillow to rest my head on while getting filled. I mix my enema in 3 quart stainless pitcher and pour it into the 4 qt fountain syringe, turn the lights down low and settle down to take a good deep enema. My typical enema is 3 quarts of warm soapy water delivered from a high-hanging bag. It doesn't take too long to enter my body but I like to extend the retention time as much as possible until I have a nice cramping sensation building up.

I try to do an "enema series", which for me consists of a 1-1/2 quart hot soapy solution (to get any solids out), followed by 3-1/2 quarts of hot soapy solution delivered by either a 30" Fr32 colon tube or a rectal tube that has an inflatable head. The first enema takes about 2 minutes, the second more like 20 minutes. I prefer to have my enemas given to me in the bedroom on my bed, but it takes 30 minutes or so to set up properly.

Fifteen to twenty minutes to set up but that is part of the fun and excitement of it all to me.

About 15 to 20 minutes

If I’m giving or taking a ‘health’ enema, I try to set things up quickly so the relief the enema will give comes sooner. If the enema is for ‘fun’, setup usually takes longer–depending on circumstances.

When I was quite small, the preparation of the enema seemed to take a long time; I was undressed by my mother and could watch Daddy fill the enema bag with soapy water. When I was older, the enema would usually be ready when it was announced and I was told to go to the bathroom to receive it. Either way, my mind was racing with anticipation as soon as I knew what was going to happen to me.

I take at least one or two enemas every day, all the year. In the morning I use half an hour or so, to start and finish the hole thing(in and out).Always a gallon or more with cleen water. Some days when I have plenty of time I can repeet it twice or three times.
