I've never had this happen; I've had my ileostomy for almost 3 months.

That's what gas looks like in effluent (ileostomy only). Crazy, huh?

Yup, it's gas.

My husband's ostomy nurse recommended the site two years ago. The help and recommendations they have given us is invaluable.

I get foamy output sometimes and bubbles in my output and all kinds of funny things. I think it's normal and natural. It just happens. Like others said, it's probably gas.
