Dual Purpose Enema bags

I wonder how many of us will admit to still using our hot water bottles as dual enema bags as was intended!

I certainly still do and find my hot water bottles so useful and practical for this purpose!

I like to take my enemas using a bulb syringe attached to a hot water bottle when needed for enema purposes.

I also find my hot water bottle very useful in time of easing aches and pains and enjoying the warmth and comfort etc.when needed.

I guess I may be old fashioned but having been brought up with the useful attributes hot water bottles can offer for me and family they are very essential in the home for everyday use!

I will use a combination syringe quite often. I prefer a more traditional fountain syringe, but use my water bottle as a matter of convenience. I love my Jacuzzi tub and use a water bottle as a pillow. It is sometimes cold and sometimes hot. Sometimes I just can't resist and use the adapter for an enema.

I am aware that my father uses his enema bag as a hot water bottle for pain in his knees.

I DO keep two different bags for enemas and douches.

My mother once told a story of how they kept warm back in the 1930's long before electricity and electric blankets. The wood stove was used to heat the central portion of the house with the door to the hallway to the bedroom area always kept closed to keep the heat in the living space. At night a fire was kept in the wood stove in the kitchen where a large kettle was kept full of warm water on the big iron stove. The last thing before one went to bed was to fill your hot water bottle and make sure of no leaks. You then took the bottle full of warm water and went into the cold sleeping area of the house to your room. The hot water bottle was them placed in the bed and slowly moved up and down the bed where one was going to lay down. This left a warm area that was not half frozen for the body to find some warmth. The worst thing was if the stopper leaked and it turned into a cold wet spot making for a miserable night of sleep. We have it way to easy today.

I use an open top bag for an enema. I find that to be most convient. I use a bulb syringe when I douche. Rather than a hot water bottle, I use a heating pad for aches and pains.

I bought our combination syringe just before we got married nearly 30 years ago. There was no doubt in my mind that its main use would be for enemas, but there have been those occasions when it has served as a hot water bottle. And I'm glad I had it, too.

Yes, though I have a 5 qt open top amber latex bag that I generally use, I also bought a 3 qt Paris combination bag from Beth Tyler's site. Filling it with warm water and placing it on my abdomen while taking an enema on my back provides a wonderful feeling.

Here in California it is hard to find a real open top "Fountain Syringe" as they were called in the Sears catalogues.The only rubber bags,as opposed to plastic fleets temps,are the awkward hot water bottle "combination"bags which leak

I have a combination hot water bottle and have used it for cool and warm compresses. Of course enemas also!!!😃

We also have a combination bag that has been used for both cold and warm topical applications, but most often for enemas. I still think it might be the most practical option, but as I have been known to say "no home should be without an enema bag."

I know your mom probably taught you this, but when you have an especially bad period, holding a hot water bottle against your lower abdomen DOES help a little for the few minutes that you can do it. Lying on top of one when your period is happening can help you sleep.

I don't like HWB's for enemas. An open top bag is the only one for me. That's what mom always used and I'm imprinted with that. The only time I used a HWB for enema was when making love and avoiding spills that thrusting could cause. 90% of the friends homes I visited as a kid had open top bags for irrigations and maybe a lone HWB for heat applications. I see them as two separate items for two separate purposes.

I actually PREFER closed bags. Less splatter less spillage. My 4-qt is an open top. Spills are an issue.

My douche bag is also an open-top It never leaves the bathroom.

Since my husband and I take enemas on the bed, the closed bag does insure that we don't make a mess by spilling the enema. Like Lisa my douche bag never leaves the bathroom.

I have 3 qt Ribbed Hot Water Bottle, love it, but alaso enjoy the Jones Can. For you girls something fun, take the hose, place between the vaginal lips with warm warm water as it flows into you. You will get a dual rush 😃 Did this to a Nurse friend of mine once. She was HOT 😃 and was HOT 😃 also.

It is like the other way around in our house. We have a combination syringe that is first and foremost for giving enemas. On some occasions, we have used it as a hot water bottle, but not very often.

Updating a vintage thread. I grew up with a hot water bottle for aches and pains and particularly easing. pre-menstrual cramps. I bought a combination bag after I got married and later used it with my girls as needed. In recent years, however, I think hot water bottles have gone out of style since microwave wraps. I love my wrap, since it's cold and rainy here, and I wrap it around my feet at night.

I still very occasionally douche!

Just very occasionally

I use a different bag for that than for enemas

For enemas I actually prefer the closed-top Hot-water-bottle type bag.

I get a better mix, because I turn it hose side up to carry it to the bedroom, then I lay it on it's side while I'm finishing the prep, and THEN hang it hose down right before I get into position.

Mixes the ingredients better.

It also does not spill like an open-top.

I know that my Dad uses his HWB-style bag as Hot Water Bottles for his knee pain

When I first started having periods, holding a hot water bottle to my lower abdomen or laying on one at night did help a lot until my pain threshold rose enough that I didn't need it

So at one time or another I have used my enema bags for their other two uses as well

Combination bags are ok but only as a hot water bottle and never for an enema or douche simply because there is no way you can really keep the inside of the bag clean unlike a fountain syringe you can turn it inside out and get it really clean and cootie free

I have always had a common combination bag around even though the open top fountain syringe is easier to use and clean and has become my favorite. There are times that being able to lay the bag down without leaking is an advantage. Like when my husband and I were playing in bed. I had a Higginson type bulb inline so even if there was no good place to hang the bag, it was very effective for a slow relaxing play enema. I can't remember the last time I used any of them as a hot water bottle. Maybe as a teenager trying to relieve period cramps before I discovered an enema works better.

I have never used an enema bag for anything other than enemas. I usually go with a closed top bag because you can lay it down if the clamp is shut and also less chance of spillage. I do like the sound an open top bag makes when the last of the water drains into the hose, it's kinda like a squick sound. You can also refill an open top bag during the enema if it is going in easily. They both have their uses.

I have one of the run of the mill vinyl drug store combination bags. I use it exclusively for enemas and never used it as a hot water bottle. It was one of the first bags I purchased when starting my collection.

There are pros and cons to both type of bags. One of the pros with the combination bag is that your giver can squeeze the bag to speed up the filling and it is much safer to use with regards to spills. But to me, the REAL enema bag is the open top fountain syringe with the steel pinch clamp and the bakerlite nozzles and it is to be made of rubber.

The con of the combination bag is that you can never truly empty the bag due to it's construction. But I love them both.

I have open top and closed top, and while I have used the closed top for enemas a couple times it usually does hot water bottle duty and leaves the enemas to my open top silicone bag.

I still use these sometimes (generally when traveling and hauling equipment just isn't worth it). I find them disappointing... they don't hold a lot and their nozzles are awful. But, they do beat no enema at all!

Most of my nozzles are replacements. Anymore there aren't very many good nozzles with kits unless you go to the very specialty stores.

This discussion reminds of our home ' enema syringe system ' which was used exclusively for that purpose . My mother had a second ' fountain syringe ' as they were called in the day for her ' douches ' as she did not want any enema related contaminated bacteria to enter her when she douched . She shared this fact with me long ago when as a kid I questioned her as to why we had two ' enemas ' stored in the linen closet . Yes ……… we did use the enema bag in a ' hot water bottle ' role when required . The ' hot water bottle ' was most comfortable on my tummy and back but the thought did cross my child mind that the ' hot water bottle ' had another use which to some could have been construed as ' sinister ' but to us on this site discussion was a welcomed diversion in our youth and adulthood as to perhaps an acquired pleasurable pastime experience .

I have used it as a hot water bottle for pains and period cramps. I have also masturbated with it against my clit and the smell of rubber enhances the pleasure as my mind creates many memorable enemas in my life. The warmth against me and the feel of rubber is very exciting to me

For me I have only used my combination bag as just a enema bag it is easier to have a separate smaller hot water bottle.
