Should I plan differently for overnight trips with a colostomy?

Yes, overnight trips usually need a little more thought. It is sensible to pack extra supplies, ideally in more than one place, in case one bag is misplaced or awkward to reach. Think about where you will change or empty your pouch, how you will dispose of used items, and whether the bathroom setup will feel easy to use. You may also want simple nightwear, drinks, and any medicines within easy reach. Some people find that the first overnight stay feels easier if it is somewhere familiar, such as a relative’s house, before trying a hotel or longer holiday break.
