Dear Brenda, No doubt you've received some very helpful replies. I offer one of simplicity. In all my experience (11 years) I need an enema only big enough to cause a bowel movement. I don't allow constipation to continue beyond three days. At that point I fill my enema bag with one quart of fairly warm water. Nursing texts say 100 - 102F. I like mine much warmer - warm to the hand. I use one teaspoon of Dr. Bronner's liquid Castille soap available in any health food store. In fact, it's so well known that, if you ask a clerk what the stuff is for she'll doubtless tell you straight-away "enemas." Lie on your back with the nozzle inserted and buttocks pinched together so as to retain the pipe. I recommend a vaginal pipe inserted only four or five inches. Take the enema slowly. As soon as you feel urgency, pinch the tube and pant like a puppy dog. In seconds the urgency will abate and you can again open the tubing. Once you've taken the enema try to hold it for five minutes - no longer, then take your time on the toilet, massaging your abdomen now and then. Good luck. And questions, email me.

Anne
