just prompted my daughter to sit on the loo and try to go. all that came out was a mushy blob of poo stuck to her bum which I had to wipe away. yesterday we had lots of soiling and some small blobs of mushy poo which dropped into the loo. I was expecting a major evacuation of the bowels but this doesn’t seem to be happening. I’m worried. I wish I knew how long this would take. I feel like she will never go back to normal. Up until a week or so ago she was off Cosmocol and passing a stool everyday. Now here we are…full blown relapse

What made you start the disimpaction? Day 4 is still very early on in the process. If after two weeks things aren't moving as you would like you can add a stimulant to the regime. How much are they drinking on top of the laxatives? Fluids are key in the process.
we had a breakthrough yesterday and are onto type 7 stools. There’s conflicting advice around the maintenance dose though. ERIC advises 2-4 sachets but elsewhere I’ve read you should reduce down gradually. She got up to 10 sachets to get to type 7 stools. Any ideas anyone?
