Position for largest enema

Background info: I am a fan of belly inflation...... so I try to take as much as I SAFELY can, but I have ran into some "issues."

What is a good position to get the largest (safest) amount of water in?

I use a 3' colon tube and about 4 qts of plain tap water, so it does not matter which position I am in, the water gets to the cecum. Having said that, I start by lying on my side and putting in the tube because it is easier that way, and after it is all of the way in, I lie on my back and masturbate while the rest of the water goes in. After the bag is empty, I go back to my side and take the tube out and put in a retention plug because it is easier to do it that way. Then I hold it as long as I want to.

A particular position can vary from person to person when it comes to an enema of substantial quantity ...some may say knee chest,others on the back with hips elevated slightly....purpose in achieving such exceptional goals is an entirely individual endeavour....I'm not one for monster volumes....resulting in a very taught distended stomach....discomfort & difficulty in retaining for a period of time.

Enema administration In times gone by & from a medically documented standpoint generally recommends the "knee/chest" - head down bum up as in radiological investigations....awkward when done on ones own.....Voluminous gastric (colonic) lavage aside...which was another practice that necessitated additional help...though it can be achieved with practice.

To me it's about the comfort level & the pleasures derived....even the "hurts so good" soap variety & it's variables can deliver memorable moments.. ...like some others here "riding the waves" out so to speak....such is the "good " Enema ,but again that's just a personal view...So all I can add is that by trial & error would be the only factor in discovering for oneself what best suits.

I find I can always take larger volume enemas when they are being administered by someone else vs. self-administration. I also find that the water temperature between 106-110F helps with retention as well as the addition of baking soda and salt to the water. A colon tube is inserted about 18 inches. The enema starts on my on my back and about 2 quarts through I am instructed to turn onto my left side for the remainder of the enema. Usually 4 qts is the max, however on a few occasions it has been 5 quarts.

I personally start by lying on my left side and eventually roll into the knee chest position with my head turned slightly to the left in a resting sort of way. But, regardless of which position you choose, to get a large fill, one must be clear of gas....so a couple of gas pills an hour or so before you take an enema is a must, usually followed by some sort of hot liquid. For me it's coffee.

I'm a belly distension fan, too and sometimes like to hold as much as I can get in comfortably on a given session. For me, it's always a series of movements and massaging depending on how much is in, where I feel pressure, where I can palpate/hear the water located and how much is to go. Usually I start in left side down or sometimes on all fours, butt up, but soon I move to laying on my back so I can feel/hear the internal liquid and massage it to try and move it along up to and past my splenic flexure. After that, it's usually moving to right side down for more water and more massage to be sure it's making it to the ascending colon and cecum. Near the end I'm usually either still right hip down or back to on my back. If I'm planning on a long retention I'll stay on my back and maybe do some more massaging to be sure everything is about equally full without too much pressure any one place. It's fun to me to do a good deal of repositioning and feel the water move around inside and notice things like "that was harder to get up and move than 10 minutes ago!" and the like. I've done almost exactly that sequence many times, including 4 quarts a couple of times and once up to 5 quarts.

Ericmacson: I just tried your way......... didn't really get bigger but with all of the massaging, I did get a much deeper cleaning! 😃

Air, if you're really looking for the best belly distension with liquid not air, technically the deeper you push your liquid the less it'll likely distend it for a given volume of enema. And if you do a clean out or two before you refill looking for distension, all the waste solids you removed now have to be replaced with liquid from below just to get back to the fullness you had before starting the clean out, plus adding back more volume to produce distension. My method is just one that works for me so I can get as much in as possible if I want distension, or get a given enema volume to travel as far as possible for cleaning. You may find someone else here that has a method that works better for you.

Oh, and if you want to really see maximum distension for a certain enema volume, plug yourself or squeeze as tight as possible and carefully stand up. You'll almost be guaranteed to see the effect gravity has on your enema-infused belly compared to lying down. I enjoy doing that in front of my bathroom mirror when I get up to refill my 2.5 q bag for a >2.5 q enema. I'm over 6 feet tall, but even with only 2.5 q I usually prefer to hold my belly or brace it against the counter while I'm standing so as to not feel like standing is producing too much pressure pushing my belly out. Lovely feeling.

Everybody who has posted so far are very experienced enema players and the advice is excellent. I am not into large distension but I do notice that I can take much more volume towards the end of my sessions after I have really cleaned my colon high up. I notice when filling at this point that the water flows easily and without any cramping and I begin to distend. I am usually lying on my back but sometimes I will shift and lay on my left side or try to elevate my hips so the water can run further up and higher into my colon.

Probably stating the obvious, but for me larger volumes occur when I have done a good job of clearing all the poop out of me enabling the water to travel higher up and fill my colon.

I can usually take 3 quarts in the standing position and have taken as much as four quarts...trying to hold it for the better part of 10 minutes...the release while squatting is very intense

It seems like standing slightly bent over like resting hands on a sink or counter does the trick for me. I might seem counter intuitive but I can get well over four quarts in standing.

I've never done any enema standing, but I'm very surprised you guys can get in as much as you do without gravity helping you to move things in the right direction. I can't even imagine taking my 2.5 q bag standing, let alone more like 4. Wow.

Ditto that surprise here too. My usual position is hands and knees throughout, tho sometimes I like to take the first half of my 4 qt bag sitting on a low step as the bag is up on the banister. Then move to all 4's. It would seem that all parts of the colon are more or less horizontal to the floor that way so I don't fight gravity.But taking the whole thing standing sounds exciting as there would be a battle between incoming water from below and gravity, with the colon's elasticity refereeing. I MUST try this my next enema!

I always get to a clear return with smaller enemas, usually 3qt, in knee-chest, before going for the 4qt enema.

I wait at least a good 45 minutes. Twice that if I had to take a Magnesium Citrate to get fully clear.

By the time I get to the 4qt itself, I usually use Simms Position with a pillow under my hips as well as one under my head.

I keep a clean dishpan next to the bed in case my system rebels and it starts coming out the other end. Just hang my head over, without getting out of position.

I take a lot of time.

I use a barium-type nozzle, on an open-top "great white" bag.

By then the mucous membrane is long ago washed away, so I need a SMALL AMOUNT of KY Jelly on the nozzle itself, take it SLOW and make SURE I have it pointed towards my navel. I always wait a few minutes, make sure I'm fully relaxed, make sure it's all the way in, and make sure there is not too much background stimulation.

Truth is it WILL hurt!! I make an effort NOT to think about that.

I do 4-8 qts on my side or on my back. Side is more comfortable, but back allows for masturbation. Changing from one to the other with a lot of water in may cause leakage during the movement, however.

Three to four quart enemas are pretty much the norm for me. So, to achieve maximum filling I always start out on my left side in the Sims position for the initial enema. For subsequent enemas, I will start out on my left side and then shift to my back about half way through the filling. Once on my back, I massage my colon in a counter clockwise manner to aid the flow of the solution higher into my colon. Then, I simply lie still and enjoy the sensations in my pelvic area as the enema does its work.

In all cases, I have a pillow under my head so it is slightly elevated while I enjoy watching the bag deflate! After all, an enema is not only a physical experience...it's also visual.

Have fun and play safe!

Having a foot of my colon, including all of the sigmoid and half the rectum removed due to cancer, 2.5 qts. is my usual limit. I have pushed it to 3 qts., but that causes true pain. I am satisfied with my 2.5 qts. and can do repeats as needed. I almost always take all of them on my back to watch the bag shrink and have access to intimate areas.

On my back in a tub full of hot water. retention is much easier and longer too. Must have something to do with gravity and floatation.

You have a special circumstance, jimmy, earned the hard way. You're doing it right - you found your best volume for comfort and safety, so keep on enjoying it. I can do 4, even 5 quarts once, and I enjoyed it a lot, using what might be regarded as "boring" solutions. However, I can't do half of what the people here write about, so I too am enjoyably satisfied with what I'm capable of. To the others, I'm glad you can safely enjoy your adventures.

I prefer left side, right leg pulled up to my chest.

Multiple positions for me, started on my left side, then on my back with some massage, then my right side with some more massage. then hold it while on my back. gets almost my whole colon full.

Standing works pretty well but I really want to try a high volume enema in a medical style chair, maybe kinda like ones used for vaginal examinations. I assume raising your legs too much will make it harder. I'd really need a way bigger enema bag or a dom to try it though :3

Another idea I'd love to try is to try a standing position but tied up and hanging from the ceiling, not suspended, but so you can let the ropes take your weight, so you can relax more.

The knee chest position doesn't really show off the belly that well sadly :[

I've noticed very slight positional shifts while standing can help the flow continue, such as turning my torso slightly to the right or tilting my hips (like putting more weight on one leg). I think standing might slightly tense up some abdominal muscles for support, which will probably limit your capacity a bit.

I'll also throw in that I love taking enemas in the shower, while it runs, and the warmth helps heaps, I often let the shower run over my belly and it really helps with relaxation.

I have had many enemas is a doctor's exam table with stirrups. I would say that the difference in a Simms vs this position is one of awareness. You can definitely see the silicone enema bag deflate as the water level declines. You definitely notice your belly distention as well. I wouldn't say it is harder to retain you just know you are doing it.

Given enemas in Simm's position I am not allowed to look at the bag. I find that I am often surprised when I hear the last drops of the water leave the enema bag.

I do find, regardless of position, baking soda and salt make it much easier for me to retain.

I love shower enemas too .. just spent an hour in the shower doing just that.

The only downside was I was alone

For me it is on my left side with right leg pulled up.

Everyone has their favorite positions for large enemas but I believe that FLATxBELLY nailed it. For quantities up to and maybe a little over 4 quarts, shifting from the left side to the back after about 2 quarts, and then to the right for the last quart, gets the liquid spread throughout the entire colon and is much easier to take. You can also elevate you rear end a little and let gravity assist. And of course, a gentle message is always nice.

I've found that putting a towel under my neck and hanging my feet above my head against a wall works best in retaining large volume enemas. Although that can get old quite quick and definitely isn't the most erotic position. I find that for day-to-day enemas I just stick to laying on my left side.

Not sure the position is all that important. What's important is that you pick a position and STAY IN IT!!!

Through injection and retention.

You don't want one where there is pressure on the lower abdomen, because of the amount you are taking. It won't stay in!!

Standing does not seem very desirable because gravity is trying to pull the enema out.

I use either Knee-chest or Simms for all my enemas.

Knee chest is better for most enemas because the voluntary muscles are only in the bottom few inches of the bowel, and so gravity is your friend in knee-chest. But relaxation is difficult and self insertion of a longer nozzle is awkward

Simms is better on both of those.

When I take a 4-qt enema, I do the earlier 3-qt cleanout rounds in knee-chest, and go to Simms for the 4-qt itself.

I prefer laying on my left side, and moving my leg up as far as possible. When I feel full, I will lay on my stomach, and try to move the water more evenly. That does help a bit and allows me to take more. Still, two quarts, maybe three is my limit and I don't push it.

For 5 or 6 years, spine issues made if difficult for me to get off a massage table, less up from the floor. There has been mention of filling up while leaning forward toward a counter top or standing up. I'd like to add sitting to the list.

For the last 20+ years my standard gear has been the 1-gallon open top Sherema bag, a silicone double balloon with extra long hose. and I took and enjoyed many enemas while sitting on the toilet. I first rinse the lower colon with the shower hose then prepare the enema bag and hang it on the rolling IV pole. I put a glove on my right hand, grabbed some crisco and then lubed up me and the double balloon nozzle. I then sit on the toilet and insert the double balloon, taking the glove off and the grease away. I then look up at the bag and hear the gentle whir of the flow indicator as I release the hose clamp. I take a full gallon and I extend the IV pole almost to the 8' ceiling. Although it varies from time to time, watching porn on my iPad while I sit there and fill up can be enjoyable.

Now that my back is fixed, my most common position is on my back, on the massage table, pillow under my head. However, just last week I did 3 gallons on the toilet. I love the variety.

If I'm in the mood for a fairly large enema (volume), I will rotate in various positions during the taking process, but find it is easiest to take the final amount of liquid if I'm laying on my back, with my knees raised.
