To date, we have already used all the packaging. Really helped only once out of five! Judge for yourself, draw conclusions and make a decision!

The first time, back in the maternity hospital, the candle worked almost immediately (probably a pure coincidence), 3-5 minutes passed and we got the result (before that, I hadn’t pooped for a day). Everything went well.

The second and third time testing gave the result as much as six hours after the introduction of the candle. Prior to this, the child had not pooped for two days, he was nervous, pushed, jerked his arms and legs, but there was no result. I don’t even know if the candle worked already after six hours, or it happened by itself, without a clue, but in the end the candle came out completely, like new.

The fourth and fifth time "testing" my nerves is just tinny, there was no result 24 hours!!! Before this, the child did not poop anyway three days, I used the "rescue" candle, kept waiting and waiting, constantly checking the diapers, but nothing happened, the fourth day passed like that ... the child did not sleep well, was naughty, pushed, but nothing happened, I did not know how to help him, I reproached myself for lighting that candle at all, it's not normal when foreign body has been in the body for so long, especially with a baby ... she was all exhausted, she didn’t wait any longer, she called the local pediatrician and the advice was simple: regular enema with warm boiled water. I did everything according to the doctor's recommendations and after a few minutes there was a result, there was so much feces that the diaper could not withstand such pressure, everything leaked around the legs, but my joy knew no bounds, I was already jumping with happiness.

And read how many these candles have side effects:

Possible allergic reactions pain, nausea, vomiting, gastrointestinal bleeding.
With prolonged use of candles Farmina irritation and discomfort in the rectum, sometimes catarrhal proctitis.

Outcome: better enemas have not yet come up with anything! In vain she tormented her child so much and herself suffered near him, did not sleep at night. Wasted money. I won't buy anymore. Helped only once out of five, and that is probably a coincidence. I do not recommend.
