Tell me about your totally awesome diaper bag

I'm looking for recommendations on diaper bags for 2 kids. I have a 21m/o now and I'm due in the next couple of weeks. I'm going to need something that doesn't fall off my shoulder, that can hold everything for a toddler and a nb, and most importantly is functional.

I don't care if it's cute; I want it to be easy. I'm thinking backpack. 

Go!

Re: Tell me about your totally awesome diaper bag

  • I havent tried a backpack. At the time my son was 3 and not potty trained plus I tend to pack heavy. First aid kit, med bag, two outfits for each child. I live in Cali so our weather is funny. I started out with the eddie bauer heritage tote I would say its one of my favorite bags. I had room to carry everything including my moby. Its not made with the best material though so I need to replace it. Right now I am using the juju be be all. I love the bag because of all the compartments its great organization. But it wouldnt have worked for me in the nb and small toddler stage.So I personally would have used the be prepared. HTH.

  • I tried to use a backpack diaper bag (JuJuBe BFF) and I HATED it. It was a PITA IMO. I've tried a ton of different bags and I keep going back to my original. I use the JJ Cole Mode Tote Bag. It's a tote style, which is so convenient when you are trying to grab something with 2 young kids in tow.

    I really tried my hardest to like the backpack style, and I thought for sure that I would love it. But instead I hated it and it was such a pain putting on and taking off and my toddler's leg would get stuck. I couldn't get anything out without 2 hands because I had to open a zipper. It just wasn't simple.

    This tote bag I end up just tossing things in, grabbing things out and throwing it over my shoulder to go.

  • We have a Jan Sport backpack its a big one. I like it because it lets me be truly hands free without worry that it was going to slide down and hit one of them.

    I got a really obnoxious rainbow animal print lol. I'm tacky like that.
