So I'm wondering how everyone gets on with protecting their ostomy pouch and skin barrier when taking a shower. I've only found one product, an ostomy shower guard (see pic) and it has mixed reviews. I personally have so far tried the Glad Press 'n Seal and Hy-Tape, which works ok. But, for many showers to come, prepping will grow frustrating. So, I'm asking "What do you do for showering"? "What solution have you found?"
