Ostomy: Adapting to life after colostomy, ileostomy or urostomy

Thank you. I too like the coloplast convex pouch. I was given a tip to turn the base a bit to move it away from the belly button and it worked along with the barrier strip. (I call them half moons). It is getting better, I’m at 4 weeks now.
I like the coloplast pouch with the Velcro foldable and the skin color pouch is nicer than the clear.
Have you tried the ostomy water bottle to clean the inside. I saw it on Amazon and I got it. I read posts saying how they love the clean feeling. I really like it.
Do you swim in the pool or ocean?
Thx

Over the years I have tried just about every pouch available and I agreed the Coloplast closure is the easiest to use.
Are you using the deep convex pouch. It works better for me than the regular convex.
Are you using a one piece or two piece. I found the one piece works better for me.
I use a wash bottle for cleaning. (See below. )
I don’t swim at all. Hate it. But I do shower with the pouch on. Just cover the vent with the tabs supplied with the pouches.
