Since this thread has been hanging around for a bit, I'll add to it this morning. I did a nice warm Epsom Salts enema yesterday morning, and besides the usual Sims position, plus on my back, and right side, I settled into a very comfortable somewhat modified knee-chest position. As I laid face down on the comfortable bathroom floor with a Terry towel under me, I tucked my folded arms underneath my chest, and raised my butt and belly off the floor with weight on my knees, just enough to insure a good angle of flow, and no pressure on my stomach. I then proceeded to fantasize about a nice female enemate administering my enemate in this position while slowly moving the nozzle around and in & out, rubbing my back, and occasionally reaching under me to stroke my nice erection. Yes, this makes for a pleasant enema session. I can only dream. 😃
For the largest enemas, I've found a couple positions that work. One is the well-known knee-chest position, that allows the fluid to flow downhill at least part of the way. it is a bit hard on the back, however.Something quite counter-intuitive is to take it standing up! I think this position makes it easier to clench your bottom to hold it in. I have taken a number of 4 quart enemas with a retention nozzle while standing.Another position is lying on the right side. It takes some pressure for the water to flow up and over the descending colon, but then it just pools in the cecum, and your right side can spill out over your hip bone. I've taken some really big enemas in that position, too.Jon
As I've written before, I wind up in at least three or four positions during a large enema depending on where the water is located and where I want it to go. However, after it's all in, say 3.5-4.5 quarts, I wind up either on my 1) right side down so as much water as possible stays as distal as possible and doesn't tend to want you make me push it out down low, or 2) (usually) on my back which I find the most comfortable for holding big enemas. I've been so comfortable with 4 quarts on my back that I not infrequently fall asleep holding 4 quarts with a latex DBC inflated in my bottom holding things in. (Yes, I'm a real person, doctor actually, who enjoys large long retention enemas because my over sensitive anus, alas, doesn't like multiple sequential fills and empties.) We'll see what happens tonight during my first (annual?) New Years celebration enema when I'm expecting to hold about 4 quarts of nice smooth saline until midnight (here, Central Standard Time, US), and maybe later if I wind up falling asleep again holding after midnight. This should be interesting. Definitely beats being drunk and watching largely uninteresting college football tomorrow. And no hangover................Happy New Year, everyone - to each their own.All the best,Eric
Sitting on my JBL I can take about 4Q if I work up to it. I find I can take large volumes best on the JBL.
My largest ones have been standing up. Been able to take more than 5 liters (don't know how much more I really could have taken, but wasn't into pushing my luck.The laying on the right side is also another high volume position.
Taking a large volume enema is always fun. I can take more water lying on my back in bed with several towels underneath. also a nice position is the shower stall sitting on a potty chair with the pot removed. hang the bag on the shower head lean back slightly and let the flow begin . also its nice to have the shower shot squirting hot water on your cods. this can make for a very large enema enjoyed.
