Mamas have so many options when it comes to diapers bags these days. In just style alone there are endless choices from backpacks to satchels to crossbody. Then, there are a million questions when it comes to what to put inside! Do I pack my stuff in the diaper bag as well? What do I really need in my diaper bag?
Which Diaper Bag Is Right for You
Here are some of great diaper bag options:
- BB Gear :: This one is my personal favorite! It has multiple pockets to organize everything, is a solid structure so it stays standing on its own, features clips to hang off strollers or shopping carts, and is cute and affordable!
- Fawn :: Made from vegan leather, this bag also offers stylish options, such as a messenger bag or a backpack with 12 pockets.
- Ruvalino :: An affordable option that will last and and can be used later for travel.
- Terra Baby :: This is a crossbody option for mamas who cherish style and organization.
- TWELVELittle :: This brand features a 2-in-1 messenger bag and stroller organizer.
What You Need Inside Your Diaper Bag
- Feeding supplies :: This changes as your baby grows. It could start out with a nursing cover, bottles and formula, and bibs, then grow to baby foods and spoons. Eventually it will be just carrying around your kiddo’s favorite snacks.
- Cleaning supplies :: You can never pack enough burp cloths, wet wipes, and hand sanitizer.
- A change of clothes for each kid and maybe an extra shirt for yourself :: We all know the messes babies can make and how they love to use mama’s shirt as a napkin. I keep a change of shirt for me for those massive spills and accidents.
- Medicines :: My kiddos have serious seasonal allergies, so I keep allergy medications in our bag along with Zarbee’s Baby Chest Rub. I also keep Neosporin, Band-Aids, and ibuprofen or Tylenol as well.
- Comfort items :: Pack extra pacifiers, extra pacifier clips, loveys or snuggle blankets, in case (and inevitably) one is lost along the way.
- Diapers :: of course. Plan for about one diaper per hour you’re away from home. A changing pad comes in handy, too.
- Mama’s needs :: Chapstick, lipstick, travel deodorant, sunglasses, pads/tampons, wallet, phones, and keys.
Tips and Tricks to Help You Stay Organized
Pack a nifty safety medical kit, which comes in handy for carrying medicines. You can get it in blue or pink.- Storing things in reusable bags also helps keep things organized. I tend to keep my kids’ diapers in large bags and other things like toiletries in smaller bags.
