Jonathan Adler for Skip Hop

I love pattern, as does DH and it's on the more compact side

Starry Again · June 2012

I got a kate spade Stevie on sample sale a while back. I picked it because it is slightly more fashionable than a normal diaper bag but seems functional.

Skip Hop Duo. My husband and I intend to share a bag, and this one is reasonable price wise and husband friendly.

My family bought me a Coach diaper bag, so I'll be using that one.

FoxyLady09 · June 2012

I went to Buy Buy Baby this weekend with the intention of buying a Skip Hop Duo, but walked out of the store with the Skip Hop Dash. I was planning on getting black either way since DH and I will both be carrying the bag, but I've been going back and forth on whether the Dash will work (ie be big enough). It seems opinions on the internet vary widely, so we're going to test it out and even if it doesn't work, it's a good durable bag that we'll use at some point. For longer trips (to our parents' houses), my Columbia backpack from college will probably be the "baby suitcase". It survived all those years of college and is still going strong!

I am pretty sure I am getting a Vera Bradley diaper bag.

I will be using the same skip hop studio bag I had with dd...it still looks brand new after almost 3 years of use. Backpacks would probably be nice for awhile but assign as dd got big enough to hold onmy hip I started doing a lot of rooting around in the diaper bag or putting things away in there one handed while holding her and the backpack would not be as easy for that.

I'm lusting after the new Burberry diaper bag at Nordy's... I really want to get a "large purse" and just throw diapers and stuff into it. I'll see what they have at the Anniversary Sale next month and hopefully will be buying it then!

And before anyone says "why would you spend that much on a bag to get poop and puke on it?", just fyi, I had a Coach diaper bag with DD and never got any nasty fluids on it after using it for 2 years...no leaky bottles, no poopy diapers, no puke, etc.

The one that I used (and still love and use often) when my twins were newborns was the Skip Hop Studio. It fits so much stuff in it, it is unreal. And it's much smaller than other bags that hold much, much less.

If I was starting out again, I'd probably get a Storksak Olivia because it's pretty.

My go to bag now that my twins are toddlers and I'll have 3u2 is a Kelly Moore photography bag. Love it so very much. It fits everything I could ever imagine and it looks like a pretty bag and not a baby bag. Worth every penny.

I got the Jujube, Be All. It looked so small in the pics but is surprising roomy in person. It has a memory foam change pad and a wet bag for cloth diapers. And you can get stroller clips, which I intend to, to clip onto the stroller for hands free.

It is patterned though but I got a black and white one so it's not terrible.

jennypasadena · June 2012

My husband got me an Orla Kiely diaper bag for my birthday in May. It's this one.

Mrs.G123 · June 2012

I bought a Kate Spade.

Rachelilly23 · June 2012

I have a PPB boxy backpack that I bought in March. Love it! The backpack diaper bag is what I was looking for and this one delivers IMO. It's plenty big enough for 2 kids and has decent pockets. I like how you can zip the changing pad out of the bag, and it's in the side flap so it doesn't take up space inside the bag. It also has another strap so you can carry the bag as a messenger. have the morrocan mint chenille pattern, which is more on the neutral side. DH has never had his own bag but doesn't have issues with momentarily carrying my "girly" diaper bags.

Skip Hop Studio for me and Diaper Dude for DH.

I like that the Skip Hop has special stroller straps, it looks more like a handbag and has lots of pockets and room for stuff, as I'm an overpacker.

We've given Diaper Dude to many of DH's friends who have had babies. The mom's have all said they prefer Diaper Dude to the bags they picked out. It's all black and looks like a messenger bag, so is very husband friendly.

I decided this time that I'm going to put some $$ into a diaper bag... My gf had a Skip Hop Studio in Pewter Dots that I'm using now and she bought me the one in black dots for a baby gift. I don't usually go for a shoulder bag, I like messenger bags to keep me hands-free and I hate backpacks. I actually love it! Usually shoulder bags slip off me and this one doesn't. It's got lots of pockets and space inside. I wanted something a little bigger since DS isn't potty trained yet and if he doesn't pt before this baby comes that's 2 sets of diapers I'll be stuffing in there. We'll know I guess just how spacious it is in a few months.

I do want to have a back-up messenger bag though (I have a bit of a diaper bag addiction anyway) so I would LOVE to get the JuJuBe BFF or the Timi and Leslie messenger. I also like to put the bag over the back of the stroller so I still need to get a longer strap for the Skip Hop one that I have yet to use.

Right now I love the StorkSak Olivia ( https://www.storksak.com/product.php?shopprodid=442&variantid=499) but it's not very dad friendly so we might need to get another one for DH.

nealbl · June 2012

I got a crossbody with LO and for Father's Day before she was born I gave DH a Mizzou Diaper Bag. We actually ended up using the Mizzou diaper bag b/c it just fit more stuff in it. It is not falling apart so we are going to ahve to get another bag I just don't know what yet. I was thinking about ordering same mizzou bag but there were a few things I didn't like about it. It doesn't have an insulated pocket so I had to pack a small cooler to bring bottles with us which took up a lot of room in the bag. DH wants a backpack this time so I am looking into that. I kind of wanted a cute fashionable one this time but I am thinking we will go the backpack route.

sdude · June 2012

I just got the Ju Ju Be BFF and I love it. It will became my purse too since there are a mommy pocket for wallet, cell phone, etc.

HamptonsMama · June 2012

I love the PBK Skip Hop Duo. DH even liked it and said he would carry it around. I love all the cute accessories that is offered to match it too!!

DottyBlue · June 2012

I registered for this Columbia diaper bag. It's a cross-body bag that is neutral enough for both DH and me to carry since we will be sharing daycare pickup/dropoffs and I can throw it in the washing machine.

I couldn't justify spending a lot on an expensive bag that is going to be used to haul around dirty diapers and puke clothes occasionally.

I think this is the one we registered for too. It may be a deluxe version because it's a bit bigger for the twins. My H agrees that it's "husband friendly" too Stick out tongue

egil12 · June 2012

I'm not getting a normal diaper bag lol. I am 21, so I want something fashion friendly ha. So I think I'm just going to get a big purse that will work as a diaper bag. That way I'm going with something that fits my style and is practical.

AMT1107 · June 2012

We went with an Eddie Bauer diaper back 39.99 at BBB

opaque1997 · June 2012

I also have a pouch that goes in it thats 100% water proof on the inside.

hamiltks10 · June 2012

I registered for the JJ Cole Canvas Satchel Daiper Bag - Stone Arbor. It was the cutest bag I could find at Babies R Us. If I don't get it as a gift, I might splurge and go with a Coach or Kate Spade bag.

My mom gave me a beautiful coach bag.
