This topic is about managing an ileostomy while enjoying time at the pool, specifically for those using a 2-piece Coloplast system. The main question is whether a special wrap is needed to prevent leaks while swimming, and what products might be helpful. Here are some insights and advice from others with similar experiences:

1. Many people find that they don't need a wrap at all. They feel that anything pressing on or moving the pouch can make them feel less secure.

2. Clothing options that can help cover and stabilize the pouch include:
- High-waisted tankini bottoms paired with a slightly longer tankini top.
- Regular one-piece or two-piece swimsuits, chosen more for coverage than for leak control.

3. A tummy sleeve, which you can find in maternity stores, can serve as a light and affordable cover if you want one.

4. For extra waterproofing or adhesion with a Coloplast 2-piece system, you can add curved barrier tape to the top and bottom edges of the flange.

5. Be aware that hot water, like in a hot tub, can break down the flange adhesive more quickly, while swimming in cold water usually doesn't cause extra wear.

6. A Stealth Belt can be worn over a bikini or other swimsuit to conceal the pouch in public. It's more for discretion than leak prevention and looks like a small "fanny pack."

7. The key takeaway is that with good flange security, most people swim freely without needing additional wraps. Don't let an ostomy keep you from enjoying the water.
