Common Sleep Challenges 

If you're struggling to sleep well since your stoma surgery, you're not alone and you're not imagining it.
There are several very real reasons why having an ostomy can disrupt your sleep, and understanding them is the first step towards fixing them.

Best Sleep Positions 

One of the first questions people ask after surgery is: 'What position can I sleep in?' The short answer is:
any position that's comfortable for you. You'll find a breakdown of the most common options and tips for
each position inside this gude.

Building A Good Bedtime Routine

A consistent bedtime routine signals to your brain that it's time to wind down. This should not include your mobile!  For ostomates, incorporating
stoma care into this routine normalises it and removes the feeling that your stoma is an obstacle to sleep.
