I’m struggling big time with this! Due to some extremely unfortunate events and total lack of competence during my caesarean I recently became the owner of a nephrostomy bag, which sits right in my waist. The nephrostomy is a sort of stoma which drains urine straight from my kidney. I’m 12 weeks post partum and struggling with what to wear. I love clothes and have a whole wardrobe of lovely items that won’t work with this bag. Bottoms need to accommodate it and tops ideally need to hide it.
I’ve been wearing high waisted maternity leggings but they’re getting too big now, I have some low waisted leggings that sit underneath the bag but I’m sick of dressing like I’m going to the gym and feeling scruffy!
I used to live in jeans with tops tucked in and trainers or boots. Any bottoms now will need to go over the bag completely with room for it to fill, or sit underneath it, so just on my hip.
Im 5’6 and a size 10/12 if that helps. Does anyone have any suggestions at all? Pic below is to show how the bag sits, as I know most people won’t know what a nephrostomy is.
