Where was your enema stored - then and now?

Growing up at home:

A bulb enema syringe was kept under the sink in the bathroom. Real convenient for mom, me, and my sister.

Mom had a bulb douche syringe stashed away in her bedroom. I don't think she used it very often.

We did not have a bag syringe until we were teens. Then it was under the sink and used by mom, me, and my sister.

Now:

I have a bulb enema syringe and a fountain syringe in the vanity under the sink. Both are used regularly.

I have some other "sort of unusual stuff" in a bag in a special place in my bedroom. I don't want this stuff under the sink just in case my kids or grandkids use my bathroom.

Then, it was stored in its original box, in the linen closet. It was ten feet from our bedroom, so if you were sick, and the closet door was opened, you could assume that it would go to the bathroom, and the water could be heard, along with other preps, and then you got the dreaded call to come in, lie over her lap, and accept the enema.

now, keep everything in a zippered bag, in my room.

Always the white bulb syringe was kept in the linen closet at the foot of the stairs in the small hallway. That's where I keep it now, ready for my "12-year-old" bottom should I miss a BM or wet my bed.

In my early childhood we lived in a “Shotgun House” as it was referred to in Louisville. Walk in the front door was the Living room or Sitting room, next was Mom & Dads room, then the bathroom, my room and kitchen at the back, got the mental picture, no hallway. Mom kept HER enema bag on the bathroom door that opened into my room, always warning and threating looking to my friends and me. The door where always keep open for heating or cool draft in the warmer months. Always on the tank top a huge jar of Ponds cold cream she used for lube and whatever, along big jar of that secretive Massengill yellow power that filled the house with what I thought was a magical aroma. Yes I would sneak and sniff the power on occasions. When the aroma was in the air the bag had a God awful looking nozzle that would slapping the door. I sure knew what the Ivory scent was about. Mom collect small hotel size Ivory bars and there were normally 3 or 4 bobbing in the bag, GREAT TECHNIQUE she used tell me to look up “just a little more”, but it was the bars giving her amber bag the appearance of just a small amount remaining while I was really doing the “Hold it for a few minutes now!” She had a stand-by Mason jar with a regular size bar soaking in water sitting on the window ledge. Tuesday was Dad’s bowling night and my enema night no matter, part of her weekly “House Cleaning” she called it. Before the start of the 2nd grade we moved to one of those post WW2 subdivision when all 200 houses looked the same, but her enema bag was always on the bath room door with no shame and all to see

My Mom enema bag was stored under the bathroom sink when not in use she would keep it curled up in a pillow case under the sink. Or it would be on a hook behind her bathrobe hanging on the bathroom door. I keep mine either hanging in the shower or under my bathroom sink.

One interesting point. When my wife was a child and teen (1970s-1980s), it was not very uncommon for Americans to use enemas and douches, thus the equipment, though not normally exposed in plain sight, was stored in a normal cupboard in the bathroom, not hidden (and her mom had the bag dry in the bathroom, though it was not kept there if visitors were expected).

When her mom bought my wife her own douche bag, and also put up an enema bag in the kids' bathroom, these equipments, again, were in a normal cupboard and not hidden.

I guess today people would be more discreet?

All of the houses I lived in as a child had bathroom closets so need less to say, the fountain syringes were kept there, like wise with the house that I live in now. When I lived in the sorority house in college, I had a bulb and I kept it in my chester drawers under some clothing.

My parents kept an enema kit in their bathroom in the vanity under the sink. It was kept in its original cardboard box. I was never able to determine if they used it often other than I never found it wet from use. I don't think they used it often. My mother never gave my older brother or myself enemas so their enema kit was for their use. Until I found it at age 13 and the rest is history.

Fast forward to now. I keep most of my equipment in a duffle bag in a bedroom across from the bathroom I like to do my enema sessions. I will hang my enema bag up for at least 24 hours after cleaning and using to let it air dry but the shower curtain is pulled shut and you can not see through the curtain. I also have a hand held shower hose hooked up with a variable flow diver enabling me to attached a second hose for my colon tubes (see my pics on my profile page). That I leave attached at all times but I don't leave the colon tubes attached after using.

So if we had some unplanned guests come over, and they needed to use the bathroom and pulled the curtain back they may get a eye-full. But we have few guests and if I know they are coming I would never leave the enema bag hanging in the shower even if the curtain was pulled shut. If anybody asked about the water diverter and extra hose, I would just say I use it to give my dog a bath.

Growing up it was always on the back of bathroom door, at my aunts house on a hook in shower always ready., bulb syringes kept under sink in drawer. Today they are kept in bathroom.

We still use my mother's old 10 ounce bulb enema. it has an adult enema nozzle, a child's nozzle, and a douche one. The box that it came in decomposed long ago, probably due to moisture, so it is in a ziploc bag. We moved the enema equipment from the main bathroom to our en-suite one, when we bought the house from my parents. Now, it is kept under the sink storage closet. Same thing with what used to be the "House" rectal thermometer, that was kept in the medicine chest, above the sink.

The enema bag was hung in the tub, the enema bulb was up in a open cupboard,

I only got 2 or 3 enemas as a child - one was given by the nurse (see elsewhere on this board). The others were Fleets - I guess they were in the medicine cabinet.

Now I keep my equipment in lockable boxes (which used to be big briefcases)

Then: Mom's was a yellow Davol bag stored in its original box on the top shelf of a hallway closet next to the bathroom door.

Now: My favorite white Klystra bag (with hose & the works) hangs on a towel rack in my bathroom. Seems pointless to keep this a secret.

When growing up we had a open space with about 3 shelves in the bathroom on the top shelf for everyone to see was the enema bulb when company came over it was often asked what it was the reply would be oh, thats RJ's enema boy that was embarrassiing

Then: Until we moved, when I was in second grade, it was in a cabinet in the bathroom, both a Davil Comfy open top bag and the funnel,and rectal tube used on me. After we moved the bathroom only had a medicine cabinet, and the bag was moved to a linen closet in the hall outside the bathroom. The funnel and rectal tube didn't make the move, I assume it was tossed out.

Now: when I had just a few toys they were kept in a cabinet under my sink and in a draw next to it. With the advent of eBaby, as my collection started to grow, also on shelves in my walk in closet. When I had an office apartment in SoCal, there were folding door closets on each side of the bed, so I kept bags at the ready hanging on the rail in the closet. I also kept two IV stands, as at the time I had a playmate and we often had two full bags at the ready. Now most of what I have is in storage, but when I retrieve it, the collection will go in a large chest I have in my bedroom.

At my maternal grandparents it hung on the bathroom door until my they had both passed on. Paternal grandparents had one of the biggest bulb syringes I had ever seen in a closet in the bathroom, it had an enema nozzle, it was not a douche syringe.

Everything is stored in the LOCKED Enema and S&M equipment room part of our bedroom suite.

When I was a kid it was always kept in the linen/storage cupboard in the bathroom. Now that I'm an adult, most of my things are stored in a few drawers in my bedroom. The bag hangs from a hook on the back of my bedroom door.

We keep it in the bathroom, out of site, except when our kinky friends come over, or someone we THINK is kinky, and we want to see if they pick up on a hint!

I never got enemas when I was a kid. There wasn't a bag in the house as far as I know, and I was a nosy little shit too. Now I partake solo and store my gear in the attic behind the access panel in our half bath.

Mom's bag hung on the bathroom wall and was easy to access. The enema nozzles were in her sewing box. I would have to get it and go the bathroom for my enema. Today my enema bag is hung in the closet except when drying out it is hung in the shower. My nozzles are in the sink drawer.

I keep my equipment in a closet

Why do people ask questions such as "Where was your enema stored?" I think the proper answer to that question would be; In my ass. I think they mean to ask "Where was or is your enema equipment stored" I always thought that "enema" means the act of introducing water or some other liquid into the bowel for the purpose of cleansing or some other medical related reason. i e barium enema, or medication. Perhaps I'm splitting hairs, but some of these things are pet peaves of mine. Signage is another one. Down the street from where I live is a school and of course there is a sign up that reads, "Slow school zone ahead" I was unaware that we had slow schools or slow school zones, What a difference a coma or exclamation point makes, Wouldn't it be wiser for that sign to read, SLOW! School zone ahead. You all know what I mean?

just some of the musings of another "de-arranged" musician.

The afternoon after our wedding night, in our hotel bathroom, I saw my wife's "Shy" bag and douche nozzle, and diaphragm on a towel atop the sink shelf. After settling into our new apartment, it was common to see her white bag, tubing and douche nozzle hanging from the shower head in the tub during her menstrual period and always knew when she was having her monthly. I think she also used a red bag with the enema nozzle to relieve her constipation many days. Whenever we traveled she would also take her equipment as constipation on the road was a big problem. A few times she was so uncomfortable that I was asked to give her her enema. As the enema was filling, she made cooing sounds that made me suspect the enema was for more than constipation. We usually leave the door to the bathroom open but two or three days a week in the afternoon the door is closed and I can hear water running and the toilet flushing. Such is life with an enema girl.

Well I am the only one in my immediate family,that I know about that needs enemas and suppositories.Both my enemas and suppositories,have always and still to this day kept right out on the shelf of my changing table.The only Enema's I recieve and have since infancy are the Fleet Pedilax enema's and Fleet Pedia-Lax Glycerin Suppositories.I have had a constipation problem since infancy.For the last 14 years I have been back in diapers 24/7 365,and I still live at home with my RL mommy.She knows when I need a helper(as she calls them).When I am cranky,fussy or just whiney.She just gives me a helper,at one of my diaper changes,and just waits for it to work.Before I was back in diapers full time,they were always kept on my dresser again in full view.

Growing up the redbag hung on back of bathroom door. Now its in a draw in bedroom but we have a nozzle hooked up to our shower

My mom kept ours on a coat hanger in her clothes closet--at the very end of her hanging clothes. I'm not sure why she kept it there, but when I reached puberty, I longed for the evenings when my parents would go out and leave me alone in the house. Once I discovered where it was, I would sneak peaks on those evenings (even a "feel" once in a while) and feel the simultaneous dread and excitement I felt when the equipment was used on me.

Mom kept ours hanging on the back of the bathroom door. I guess our visitors all knew we were a prscticingbenema family.

Musicman, Look it up in Webster or other..."enema" is both noun and verb. Your enema is your equipment;can, bag, syringe, or the procedure. --all very delightful.

Hey Dude, whata ya play; instruments and type. I'm a jazz vibist.

As I stated earlier, Mother kept her Rexall Victoria Combination syringe in a white cabinet next to her bathroom. However, I remember that after she gave me an enema with it one night, she moved it to the cabinet over the washing machine in my bathroom where she stored it in its original box that the syringe came in. I guess Mother knew that after that particular enema that I'd be using it more than she would. I remember many a night that I would climb up on the washer, open the syringe box and run my hand over the hot water bottle and tubing wishing Mother was in there using it on me, which I must admit was quiet often. I had a great Mom...

In the hall linen closet, in its original box. The closet had a distinct sound and was rarly opened for any other reason than to get " The Equipment".soon after the sound of running water and then the smell of Ivory soap was apparent. Then those words........
