Noisy!!

Is it just me, or have these coloplast bags got more rustley. Keep startling myself with the crinkle crinkle of my bag. Think I may start carrying an empty crisps packet to blame the nois on!

Maybe that is one of the reasons I don't like them. I tried a convatec bag the other day and it was very noisy. I felt depressed all day I think because the noise made me feel like I was back in hospital just after I got my stoma. Come to think of it they use the clear coloplast bags in there. You might be onto something Janette.

Its not the bag its the noise that comes out of it that i find it hard to be in a quiet room with others.

haha, yes that can be VERY embarrassing.

For some reason miss piggy is full of wind at the moment. Thank god it's not helium or I think I'd end up on the ceiling at night!

Have to say we have the 'outlaws' staying and I have to keep excusing myself as miss piggy plays the bugle! That ought to scare the mom in law!

I never really noticed the noise, but I use a liner inside my bag, and they're very crinkly anyway. I just wear my girdle over my bag and it keeps it close to my body so it doesn't crinkle.

I'm a hoarder. I hoard stoma supplies (and post-it notes, but that's another story!). I used to hoard toilet paper, but...

So I got a seven month supply of all my stuff back in December and I must still have the pre-crinkly stuff because I haven't noticed an increased 'swoosh, swoosh'. I'm going to feel an urge to stock up in May, and I'm hoping not to make any more noise than I already do.

Thanks for the warning, Janette. And I hope things are going exceedingly well with the outlaws.

Post it notes? Now THAT sounds like an interesting story! Do tell.
Toilet paper, I hoard too. Couldn't bare to run out. It would be a disaster.

Yes they are more crinkly/noisy! I had a comment made to me about it today. EEK!
