Jumpsuits - how do you....

I have bought myself a jumpsuit. It is very pretty and perfectly loose fitting for current temperatures. It has a button at the neck at the back which I can't do without help. There is a zip down the side.

It looks lovely but... how do I pee? Without getting completely naked (and possibly having to ask for assistance) what do people DO? I am flummoxed but I am also 42 and unwilling to admit defeat in the face of fashion.

Well, I don’t wear jumpsuits with neck buttons I need assistance with! I LIVE in jumpsuits and play suits and yes, you pretty much have to get naked for a wee. It’s fine. The only time I’ve had an issue was an amateur-hour moment when I had DD asleep in a sling on top of a jumpsuit. Otherwise it’s never occurred to me it’s a problem. Maybe just don’t do the neck button?

Yes I think perhaps there's a bit of a design flaw there! I bought it online and it's lovely in every other way. I may have to practice.

I wear one with neck buttons to work. Just practise.

Or you could get yourself a DIY catheter taped to your leg like men wear at football matches. Rig something up with some straws and a sandwich bag.

Can you change the button for something else like a popper? I love a jumpsuit and just embrace that I have to pee half undressed. I do wear a bra under mine and when it’s colder, if the style permits, it a vest.
do you have a link to the jumpsuit?
