My 2 can be a problem at least 3 times a month leaks and the colostomy is a pain if I poo in the night and am laying on that side it as no where to go it comes out under the bass plate. I normally go when I get up.<

I only have a colostomy, but have changed my diet to avoid big meals at all. That way the volume is always manageable. Otherwise it's all too much, too fast, and heavy enough to pull the bag off or sneak out the sides!  Lasagne is a distant memory. . .
