One thing my surgeon told me was that having j-pouch surgery can affect your ability to have children (more so than making your stoma permanent). This is why a lot of people choose to have surgery after having children. It can be caused by the genes a person has inherited, an abnormal reaction of the immune system and is probably triggered by something in the environment. Barbie Day to Night Dreamhouse Playset 553668 and Barbie The Movie 2023 Dreamhouse Playset 564876 is excluded from this promotion. I was told by quite a few medical professionals that because I’m a young woman I should try reversing my stoma.
Get ready for hours of imaginative play. There's a whole range of Barbie careers to role-play and explore different occupations. From doctors to teachers to vets and fashion designers – with Barbie dolls, you can be anyone you want to be and go anywhere! The Barbie Bum Bag is another addition to our 3 Sisters Collection! This collection is inspired by the unbreakable bond shared between the owner/founder of Pretty Simple and her 2 sisters. These bags are marked with three signature studs and will complete outfits, catch eyes, and remind wearers of the incredible connection to their own sisters, whether through blood or by choice. You can see it in our inspiration and mission.It is often described as a chronic condition and although sufferers will have periods of good health, there are flare-ups where symptoms are more active. When you have surgery for Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis, you often are given a temporary stoma. This means that they leave your rectum and a bit of the large bowel connected to it in. You then can make a decision afterwards about whether you want to keep your stoma (and remove the bowel, rectum and anus) OR you can have an internal bag created, the j-pouch, and have no bag. A total proctocolectomy is where they remove the remaining bowel, rectum and anus. They sew your bum up (hence the barbie butt slang name for it) and you’re left with a permanent ileostomy.
Not everyone can have j-pouch surgery though. People who have Crohn’s disease are less likely to be offered it as there is a higher chance of failure because Crohn’s affects the whole bowel. If you have very active colitis in your rectum/anus there is also a chance you won’t be able to have j-pouch surgery. This is because there’s nothing there to connect the pouch to. Pouchitis is another complication which can come with having a j-pouch. Pouchitis is inflammation of the pouch and it seems it has many of the same symptoms as an IBD flare.

I had this surgery a year ago and bowel wise I’ve been pretty great since. I still get bad trapped wind which has nowhere to go and phantom bowel happens at times BUT overall I’m happy with the decision. For some people this is an easy decision (like for me) and other’s it’s a lot harder. It’s also not the same option for everyone and if the disease is too bad in the rectum, they can’t make the pouch. I knew from the day I had the first surgery that I’d keep my stoma. I’m really scared of surgery (which is a totally rational fear which most of us probably have). So I knew that I’d way rather have one planned surgery rather than 2 (and possibly more if the pouch didn’t work).
It’s been over a year since I had my (hopefully) final stoma surgery where I made my stoma permanent. I’d spent three years deciding whether to keep my stoma or opt for j-pouch surgery which would have left me bagless. The biggest reason I decided to make my stoma permanent is that I’ve had no major problems with my stoma! If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it right? If I’d had loads of problems then my decision may have been harder. Like with any surgery, there can be complications. As well as the usual surgery complications there is also;

If you opt for j-pouch surgery, it’s done in two stages. The first surgery, they turn your end ileostomy into a loop ileostomy (so you still have a bag) and they create the pouch inside you.

They create so much excitement for kids and gift-giving! Okay, so what is a j-pouch? A j pouch is an artificial pouch made out of your own small intestine which is connected to your rectum. You go to the toilet ‘normally’ but the consistency and frequency would be the same as when you have an ileostomy. Fashionistas! With Barbie toys, the possibilities for play are endless.
