Put Brittney laying down on her back and try that. We've been able to get it to
work for Breanna that way when nothing else will. Also, sometimes we've angled
it slightly from the side and down left or right depending on how the stoma is
angled while pushing gently on the opposite side of her belly. Cathing from
below is okay. Don't hesitate to take her to the doctor if you have trouble.
