Head to Walmart and buy a $7 tool called a closet auger from the plumbing dept. If there are wipes in there, the auger should be able to grab them & pull them out.

Leave alone, plunge, repeat. lol Give the wipes time to break apart and disolve more, while also plunging to get them moving around(which will help break them up) and also help some start to move on down the pipe. IT may take doing this a few times but if it is just wipes in there I can't imagine you will need a plumber.

If you can, remove the wipes. My daughter put a roll of toilet paper in the toilet and it did not acutally go anywhere so I was able to pull it out then use a plunger to get the water to go down.

Have you tried to plunge it?

I think your only answer is to call a plumber, unless you have one of those plumbing snakes and can tackle it yourself...

Call the plumber! This happened to my sil, and she ended up with stuff coming up her kitchen sink (and not just wipes) YUCK!!!!!!! He told her that baby wipes are not like toilet wipes as they don't break up when flushed. Good Luck.

Turn off the water and get the plunger out. If that doesn't work, call the plumber.

You have two choices. Get a sewer rat and try to clear it up yourself or call a plumber.

I agree-go buy a hand snake--they can range from $10-$50ish for the size you'll need. Kids!
