Lani3

Being a new mom im struggling to find out what diaper works for me and the baby's needs. I have 3 and all 3 seem to either be to big and bulky or I can't fit everything n it. What's ur diaper bag,why do u love it and help me by leaving me a message on what u carry n it.I always feel like I have to bring eveything! LOL.Help me get organized!

I have a mid-sized Disney tote with LOTS of pockets (which helps me stay organized). I've added and taken away items as my little boy has gotten older and depending on the length of the trip but I always have staples:

3-5 diapers

travel wipes

travel size diaper rash ointment

changing pad (this came with the diaper bag)

1 extra outfit (I carried 2 extra when he was an infant)

1 bottle of water and 1 container of organic apple juice (it saves space to carry one sippy cup and have two possible beverages)

1 bag snack (cheerios, goldfish, etc.)

1 fruit pouch

1 photo book (I made a small family photo book - it keeps him really entertained)

2-3 small toys

Hope this helps! I always struggle with packing too much :-)

That helped alot.Seems like I pack to much or not enough and I catch myself buying things I forget( I have about 5 of that same irem at home)  It can drive me nuts lol.Diaper bags can range from pricey to overly pricey I see! Just trying to see what works so I know what I should look for!

I got the bag that actually matched my stroller from Graco and I love it! (It was about $40) I also went through 3 bags until I got this one which has worked the best for me because it has more pockets and pouches separate from the main one. My little one is 2 months now and I carry:

6 diapers

changing pad (came with the bag)

travel wipes

travel size of Boudraux's Butt Paste

travel size Johnson & Johnson lotion

baby sunscreen

2 extra onsies

and extra blanket

nursing cover

1 bottle with water

formula (I have a portion carrier)

2-3 washcloths/burpcloths

hand sanitizer (for anyone who wants to hold her)

pocket sized video camera (have to catch those special moments!)
