Suppository clencing trouble?

Question

I'm having trouble inserting a suppository on my 'recipient' because he keeps clenching his cheeks.

is there any way to get him to stop or loosen up? i already tried to ask him to relax. his (my sons) doctor said he must have a suppository atleast once every 2 days for the next week and a half.

Answer 1

Maybe you can do it during a nap..or try to occupy him during the process with a snack or aomething

Answer 2

That's a tough one.  You can say, Either you relax and let me do this or I'll take you to the Dr and let him do it.  This has worked for my daughter in just about every medical situation.  It works because of her personality.  She doesn't talk to anyone she doesn't know, let alone let them touch her.  I feel for you!!

Answer 3

When I had to do this and it's tuff I know...I would try to put him over my lap and distract him for a few minutes to relax him.  Like a book or something I would get him really into the book or movie then make my move fast.  It always worked.  Good Luck
