Advice please, how to sleep for at least six hours at night…..

Im a two hourly girl as well.I have tried emptying"fred"with my eyes half shut but it doesnt really work!!

Also tried not to put the bathroom light on but again no success.

If anyone has the answer to this they could patent it and earn a fortune 

I wonder if we are all up at the same times??

I’ve tried all above too.

i take a sleeping aid as well so I am almost in a coma when I’m woken up. 

I hoped that someone would have a full proof system of slowing output at night.
I don’t even eat late.

Hi, I think you will find that it is mostly down to what you eat and when you eat. I know you've probably tried it all, but keep trying. Mostly the bulging bag is caused by eating foods creating gas. People without stomas would just be f***ing. Try thinking back to what foods caused gas before your op. Even now if and when you have a bag fall of gas, what did you eat?. Stop eating it. Although you may have tried and thought it doesn't work, it really does make a difference not eating late or evening snacking. I feel I can control it better now, but have to say that after 9 years of carrying a bag, I really dont care about getting up in night to empty, you do get used to it. It is a wonderful feeling getting the diet right, going to bed at 10pm and sleeping through until 6am. Not very often though because 78 year old men do need to visit bathroom several times in the night just weeing  

Thanks Benkersha I will keep persevering.
