I have IBD - so this has just become a part of my life.
I didn't want bulky urinary pads, or period products.
I wanted something discreet that no one would know i was wearing.
Designed specifically for IBD to give me confidence to live an active lifestyle amidst the flares.
This is where IB3 was born for me.
I couldn't find a discreet pad to still allow me to go to work, go festivals, see friends, go the shops.
I searched everywhere, but every pad/diaper had thick absorbance and too much bulk at the front.
I'll never forget the feeling of pulling up some huge baby diaper the night before download festival, and think i cant wear these. It felt degrading.
So here i am. On a mission so that we shouldn't feel embarrassed that occasionally the urgency is too much, to normalise this part of the disease.
Ultimately, to create a pad to give confidence and suit our needs, so no one has that feeling of wearing a hospital grade diaper again.
