Big purse as a diaper bag?

I was wondering if i could just use a bigger purse/tote for a diaper bag.. Is there anything i should look for?

Im just not a fan of the regular diaper bags, and dont want to spend $200 on one of the more designer looking ones!

Re: Big purse as a diaper bag?

  • Yup, that is what I do sometimes.  I do have a changing wallet though, it is a changing pad, diaper case and wipes case all in one.  I don't bring a lot of stuff with me though - nursing cover, pouch sling, change of clothes, a toy or two, changing wallet and a blanket if it is cold.
  • Thanks, i have a changing wallet as well so that should help =)

    I love love love it! Granted, my DD is almost 9 months old now.... But its still awesome. It has so many VERY USEFUL pockets and tons of space. But its not ridiculously huge for me to carry. It is a similar material as some other diaper bags I've found. You can basically just wipe anything off. Good luck!

  • I don't know what brand it is or anything, but my Grandma just bought me this giant tote baby from an LTD catalog she gets in the mail for less than $20. It only has two, fairly small pockets on the front, so I'll be making modifications to it for sure. But other than that, it's wonderful.

    I love the lexington bags. They look like a purse but have plenty of storage. Also they are made in USA, which matters a lot to me.

  • I'm pretty minimalist and have never carried a diaper bag. Children really don't NEED all that much unless you're going to be out for a while. I have a few diapers and occassionaly formula and snacks shoved into my oversized Coach bag.

  • yes you can do it, just use one with several pockets or compartiments to have everything organized, and if it is waterproof even better
