diaper bag recs - moms of 2

So I've never had to have a diaper bag for two kids at once..... do you carry one big giant bag or keep separate bags for each.

We just went to a sling backpack that I love but that's not going to cut it for both of them.   I hated our first diaper bag so I'm really in need of something that can hold a lot but isn't bulky.

    I have a Skip Hop diaper bag and I love it!  It's the same one I had when I only had Ava.  I've never upgraded.  I was thinking I would and planned on getting one of their bigger ones (mine is probably one of their mid range in size and price), but it still holds everything I need for both of them.  However, Ava does take a lot of stuff in her own backpack these days (she likes doing this so it works) and I don't need to pack bottles for Charlotte since she doesn't take them.  If I had to do all of that, I might get a bigger one but could probably get away with the one I have to be honest.  I'd definitely recommend Skip Hop bags.  I love mine!  It's roomy, hooks on to our stroller and it's stylish without being too girly so my DH doesn't look like a nerd carrying it.

    I also used a regular-sized Skip Hop for most of the time I've had 2. I could fit everything I needed in it and didn't really want to tote around a huge double-sized bag.

    I don't have two, but my friends that do carry backpacks, like normal adult backpacks.

    We like a regular old school sized backpack. They normally have some smaller pockets in the front along with the big open part. Not too expense and can be thrown on your back or the back of the stroller easily. It may be easier for us since our two are 4 years apart so the older one doesn't need much.

    I have found that using a backpack works the best for us. ?I just use the backpack I used in college, it works great and has a ton of room & frankly I see so many other people wearing them that I don't feel like a dork. ?I use the big part to hold diapers, wipes, clothes etc and then the smaller pockets for bottles.
