Are you still carrying a diaper bag?

I still find myself needing it at times (ok, most of the time) but for short trips, I just throw a diaper/wipes/snacks in my purse.

Re: Are you still carrying a diaper bag?

  • Not usually.  I have a big enough purse that I am able to put diapers/wipes/changing pad and possibly a couple toys for DS if necessary.

  • only when we go to the pool
  • Yep. I don't take it in everywhere (e.g. if we're grocery shopping I leave it in the car) but otherwise, since I need two sippies, two snack cups, plus diapers and wipes and Will's epipens and Benadryl ... that would be an awfully big purse! ;)

  • Yes, though it's a lot smaller than the one we used to lug around. My purse isn't conducive to doubling as a diaper bag. I don't always take the bag into the store with me, but it always goes with us out of the house in case of emergencies.

    OMG I love love love your dog picture LOLOL

  • I have a couple pretty backpacks.  They are big enough for a couple diapers, wipes and a shirt change (my dd is a messy kid).  Plus, I can put it on my back and have both arms free.

  • Yes b/c the few times I haven't brought it somewhere I wished I had it.

  • Yup.  I really like my bag, and I think it's easier to carry his stuff and just throw in my wallet and cell.
  • yes...in fact I just bought a bigger diaper bag.  I cloth diaper and they take up SO much room and I always have a bag of snacks, a water sippy cup and a sippy of milk.  Add a package of wipes, a book, a beanie and my stuff (wallet, phone, etc)...I need a big bag.

    The cloth diapers are really the reason I need a big bag...if I used disposables, I'd be able to stuff them in one of the pockets in a smaller bag.

  • Nope - diapers/wipes/random toy/change of clothes fit into my handbag.

     

  • I always take it when we leave the hosue, but I leave it in the car. 
  • I have a big Coach tote, that I can throw a few diapers, wipes, and sippy in and go.  For all day trips though, we still use a diaper bag.  I hate not to use it since I spent so much money on it.

  • If we're going to be out of the house all day, then I'll carry my full size diaper bag. If we're going out for quick trips, I carry a mini diaper bag with the essentials inside.
  • I always do. I've just learned that when I don't carry a diaper bag, I end up needing it. LOL
  • Yes I am attached to my diaper bag! I just have way to much junk to carry in my purse!

  • No, but I never did.  I had one that I put in the car, but it just sat there for months.  It's now collecting dust in my closet.

  • I do.  My purse would not be able to fit diapers, wipes, sippys, snacks, etc for one baby, let alone for both of them.  I just find it easier to still carry it.

  • Yes, I miss purses though. However, I love stroller straps and being able to just hook my bag to whatever stroller I'm pushing!

    I do this too.  Just in case we need something we can always go out to the car.

  • Yes, but mine isn't huge.  I love mine.  I still carry her diapers, wipes, snack cup, sippy (and usually extra juice for her sippy, she drinks a lot), my wallet, phone, keys.

    Exactly! The couple times I didn't want to lug it around (for dinner out), I ended up forgetting DD's utencils, a DIAPER, bib. I did manage to put in my purse her wipes and some toys. WTH, wipes but no diaper..I had to LOL at myself for that one.

  • I just transitioned from a backpack to a largish purse.

  • I am... but I would really like to get a bag that can be purse and diaper carrier.  I like to keep her bag packed so I can just grab it as we are going out the door.  On the other hand, I hate carrying the bag and my purse.  Now that she doesn't need as much, it would be nice to get something a little smaller.
