Diaper bag for 2 kiddos (in cloth)

What diaper bag are you moms with two in cloth using? My son will be two in December and baby #2 is due the end of January therefore will we more than likely have two fluffy butts on our hands :) I currently have a coach diaper bag which isn't the most space savvy as is so I highly doubt two in cloth plus newborn necessities would work for that bag. Bonus points for links!

  • I have the petunia pickle bottom boxy back pack.  I got it at Buy Buy Baby.  I liked the idea of a back pack because it works well for us with baby wearing, but traditional backpacks were too unstructured for my taste.  I like that this one holds up on its own and i can stuff it full!  It also has a strap to switch to messenger bag style if you want.  
    I'd say the down fall is that it's a bit of a heavy bag by itself so it gets heavier when filled.  But I don't really mind the weight of it.  Before we potty trained, I usually carried 6 diapers (usually simplex or bg 4.0 double stuffed) several burp rags, outfit change for each, nursing cover, cloth wipes and squirt bottle and snacks, sippy cup, phone, keys, wallet.

    ...Sorry for the novel.  Take home message, I love my bag.

  • I bought a Roots backpack at Costco for $20. DS gets the biggest large back compartment, DD gets the slightly smaller one in front of that, wipes fit perfectly in the small upper front bit, and I've got the lower front bit for my stuff (wallet, phone keys). And there's a spot for a water bottle and a few other random things. I already like it better than any actual diaper bag I've had. I figured I wanted a backpack so I'd have 2 hands free.

  • I have twins. We use the skip hop double duo. works great and TONS of room.

  • We're using the Skip Hop Grand Central. Tons of space, and three separate compartments.

  • I'm very curious about this as well, since my first is also a December 11 baby, and second is due mid January.

    My DH thinks DS will be potty trained by age 2 (Ha!) but I am fully anticipating that we will have 2 in cloth.

  • While I don't have 2 LOs in CDs, I used a Fleurville Mothership bag with DD and always had lots of CD's in it, it had TONS of room and a variety of pockets.  Of course, they are no longer made so you'd have to find them used (or pay the hefty $100+ price tag at amazon or overstock). I also love that the outside is a waterproof cover to easily wash off. 

    Here are some on ebay:

    This is what I was going to recommend as well.
