Changing the Bag

You have to keep track of your own system...for example: I cannot empty first thing when I wake up, but I can eat breakfast with coffee, feed and walk my dog and take my shower...then change my appliance! It is about an hour after I wake up.

We are all different so maybe if you just note 'quiet' times for a few days you'll know what would be best for you...good luck!

I try to change in the morning..about an hour after I get up and before breakfast has a chance to move through. I wait until the last of the nights process is done, take off everything ,shower, shave and reapply. Most of the time it is dormant but every once in a while I need fresh towels!

Don't you use paper towels? I tear full size Bounty into 4 pieces (select a size into two). You can change to a clean piece as often as necessary without adding to your laundry.

I sit on the side of the tub, just in case Sparky wakes up and starts doing his thing. I use paper towels, too. I have had only one leak that was bad enough to make it to the tub. I cleaned the tub with Clorox after I finished.

Mid-afternoon seems to work best for me. I may have to change that when I find employment again.

And Sam: you need to start doing this yourself.

Sam,
I use toilet paper to clean the poo off because I can flush them and can't flush the paper towels. I do flush often if "Privey" gets to working really hard when I have to change. It varies for me on the changing because I used to have frequent leaks and had to change when SHE said it was time.....
