  • Looks girlie to me, but it's cute!

  • Def to girlie. I mean, it's pink and has flowers? You can't get too much more girlie than that. Try for stripes or polkadots
  • I consider the diaper bag to be for the mom, not the baby.  So get whatever you like, and don't worry about the sex of the baby!  We're having a boy, too, and I would definitely carry that diaper bag.  It's very cute!

  • Cute, but pink makes me think GIRL.

    I don't really think that diaper bags need to be matched to the gender of the child. You're the one wearing it... or in my case, DH & I will share it and want something we both like.
  • I love that print! I looks even better in person.  I have it in a Pack A Be.

    I don't know what I'm having yet.  I like the bag but if DH will be carrying it as much as you then ask him what he thinks. Maybe you guys could pick out one together?

    Ditto. Pink + floral = girlie. Sorry.

  • Adorable but very feminine.
  • I love it!  Do they have the same bag with a blue background instead of pink?  That would definitely help.  Although I say that if you are going to be the one carrying around the bag and not DH, it should be your choice!
  • There are a lot of gender neutral diper bags out there, but that one isn't one of them. I had DH help me pick out a few to make sure he would be comfortable carrying it around too. I know he'll end up lugging it around when he's with me, and I don't mind having a neutral bag. But if you're getting more then one, and replacing your purse with the diaper bag, then by all means get which ever one tickles your fancy.

    This!

    I'm having a boy, and I wouldn't think twice about carrying it. It's an accessory for me, not him.

  • Very girlie, especially if your having a boy.  My dh would carry diapers in his pockets before he walked around with that thing.

  • Yup, we're getting a plain black messenger bag that is a diaper bag.
  • I think it looks girly too but it is very very cute.

  • I think so. I mean you're the one who's going to have to drag it everywhere so I think it should be something that you like.

  • The diaper bag is for the parents not for the child. We got one that we both wouldnt mind carrying-

    I doubt my kids are going to tell me "Hey ma, I don't like the polka dots on the bag" they're gonna tell me that they want a treat from inside the bag!

  • DH is getting a man diaper bag, and I got a much more feminine diaper bag.  We didnt really gear it toward the sex of our child.  Maybe an idea?

    What a great idea!

  • Cute, but girly sorry.  We wanted to get one that was gender neutral just so that DH would feel comfortable carrying it too.  We originally went with this but changed the color sceme to this once we picked out our travel system.  I don't think either is too girly or boyish.

  • The diaper bag is for you your LO is not going to be the one carrying it. ?So to me a femine bag is fine. ?I don't see anything wrong with it. ?I am on team green and bought 2 girly bags!
  • We are going with a gender neutral bag but not because we are team green... we are doing it because DH wanted something both him and I could use instead of having to have two diaper bags!
  • I went with a gender neutral non girlie one just so my DH wouldn't feel like I totally cut off his manhood. Somehow the thought of my husband carrying around a Winnie the Pooh diaper bag just made me want to pee myself with laughter.
  • It looks girlie, but than again it's just a bag.
  • I really like that bag, and your baby isn't carrying it, you are :) You will want some sense of yourself with all the baby craziness around you!
  • It's girlie, but aren't you the girl that's going to be carrying it?  I'm going to get a diaper bag I like for myself and a Florida Gators bag for my hubby.  Not only will we each have what we want, but we'll have two bags stocked and ready to grab and go.
  • definitely girly... if you will be carrying it most of the time, I wouldn't care too much... but your DH might have an issue if he's stuck carrying it around all the time.

    Ditto and if your DH has a problem with a girly diaper bag....he can get a diaper dude to appease himself.
