ETA: this is the Babymel one we had https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N9NS30F/ref=twister_B07TB5SZNY?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Also the wipe pockets are basically pointless. The openings never line up with the opening on the wipes. Just take the wipes out of the pocket to get one out.

I like that it's convenient to use as a diaper bag, but doesn't scream "BABY!!!"
Are you going to be carrying this long distances? (Backpack and waterproof might be more ideal)
What kind of organization system you prefer (while pockets are nice, you might find some have too little or too many pockets are too confusing to remember where your things are), do you prefer a bottles pocket?
Size (too big for storing under your stroller? Too small too fit in multiple outfits and bottles?)
Quality
And obviously, style. This may be your new purse for the next year or two, haha!
