Running from port-a-loo to port-a-loo. IB3 was born.
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.
To create a pad to give confidence and suit our needs, so no one has that feeling of wearing a hospital grade diaper again.
IBD is complex. Its unfair, and its a tough for thing for us young people to accept as a incurable reality.
The first accident you have is filled with shame. That shame is only made so much worse when you start looking for a solution. Bulky products that seem designed for the hopsital bed, not life. Our pads are made discreet and IBD specific yet effective to make sure no one knows you're wearing it, if you dont want them to.
To know your aren't alone. We are the first company to focus specifically on products that make dealing with IBD a little easier. Why? Because i needed this to exist for me. IBD has great communities out there, but we want to link people who share this symptom that you might feel shame discussing even in IBD communties.
For years, bulky pads and diapers made specifically for urine incontinence or the hospital bed.
I set out to create a discreet pad for life with IBD.
💩 Faecal specific.
💡Advanced yet thin absorption for the ultimate discreet facel solution.
Living with IBD means navigating a world of unpredictable guts, questionable diets, and hospital gowns that refuse to close properly. From “Satan’s Sprite” colonoscopy prep to watching your insides on a 4K screen, it’s a journey that demands equal parts patience and humour.
“The Ballad of My Rebellious Bowels” is my love-hate poem to life with IBD — the pills, the scopes, the flare-ups, and the brave laughter in between. Because if we don’t laugh about it, well… we’ll probably just cry (and let’s be honest, dehydration is already an issue).
In the middle of my worst IBD flare, I couldn’t find a discreet pad — so I decided to create one. That’s how IB3 was born.
