Reply to "I'm excited and scared - takedown in a week"

I wouldn't worry; only time I had to wear diapers was  in hospital just after the surgery which created my J pouch.

Takedown was easy; within two days of surgery I was ready for home.

Once discharged, I was able to make 4 hour train journey home and only had to use the toilet once; no leakage, well maybe a little although I was wearing pads but no ugerncy.

I've never had bed time accidents or leakage and I certainly don't need to wear diapers during my sleep, although accidents occur so I use pads during the day.
