I get waterproof strips to stick around the base plates. You can get these from coloplast. Also I wear a costume especially made for people with stomas, there is a little pocket on the inside of the costume for peace of mind. I find that a patterned costume hides the lumps and bumps created by having a bag so no one knows you have one.
