I need measurements of these bags as I don't have any more. I need the measurements of the picture given, width and length when closed. My order of them is coming, but I am wanting ostomy covers. My boyfriend is going to get me some for my birthday. Much appreciated!
Make sure he gets you good custom-fit ones because generic-sized ones just fall off with a little movement or when your bag changes shape from output or air. Personally, I wouldn't waste money on those things again; I haven't worn mine in over 4 years.

I just wanted to tell all the users of this site that I really love having the opportunity to express my feelings here. I'm positive that many feel the same. I wish that all here come out of the experience you have here will be like mine. Support and understanding from others with issues similar like each other will help us all and give the relief we all crave, well, I'm selfish. I'm here because I need support. And I find enough here to help in the tough times. Thank you. I really mean it.
I use Convatec for a urostomy. They have colored opaque pouches, so I don't use a cover for mine. You might look at their website. I use Edgepark Medical for supplies, and they can be helpful. Either source should provide measurements for your pouches.
I agree, the concept is good, but the ones I tried just make things bulkier and fall off!
