My daughter is 6 and is soiling all day every day help!

Hi my daughter is 6 and for sometime now has been soiling herself all day every day, she isn't even bothered by it it's getting me and my partner down we both had enough, when we go out got to take underwear and clothes to change into incase an accident happens again. The weeing part seems ok goes when she needs to and tells me she's going but the number two thing is just not happening we have been given instructions by orders of doctor to give Movicol every day and go from there the washing of clothing is becoming ridiculous we have stopped pull ups completely but wondering whether to go back to save all the mess and washing. Just don't know what the answer is I've had enough to be honest just want this problem gone for good

Pull ups enable the soiling and wetting, she should be in big girl underwear and stay there. Has she any tummy pain am wondering if she may have a UTI  have you spoken to the doctor I would do that .Could she be upset by anything in her life does she get on well with your partner and at school.Does she wet at school or is it only at home ?
