Hi, ladies. I am expecting twins and I'm trying to decide on the most practical diaper bag to accommodate all the things we'll need on the go. Any recommendations?

Thanks!

    Avoid Carter's like the plague. With our first (a singleton) it started to disintegrate nearly immediately. Poor design and/or designer not knowing enough about the materials they were using. Could have been great, but no.

    We switched to a Skip Hop, and it's holding up just fine. Still have just the singleton for a couple more months. I love the lots of pockets. Helps so much with organization. Look for thermal bottle pockets and stroller straps, too! The strolker straps are priceless.

    I have the petunia pickle bottom abundance boxy backpack and I Love it! I have a older singleton and my twins and it has more than enough room. I like the built in changing station too. It's easy to clean and light weight... And because it can be worn as a backpack it makes it a lot easier to bring along places.

    Vera Bradley all the way! I used a Storksak with DD for the first couple months and tried a couple different things. I hated having zippered or velcro departments, so I finally settled on a VB. Now, with the triplets and DD, who'll be 17 months when they're born, I got a larger VB bag (not their diaper bag).

    Here's a picture of my 3 almost 4 year old wear it. So you can see the size more accurately. This thing is really light weight even when full. But yet it's indestructible... 3 boys here so if it can withstand that then it's pretty good quality. Lots of practical compartments too and all are quick easy access!

    Tonight I bought the JJ Cole backpack that u can also use as a crossover or handbag. I looked at it and the PPB version and JJC was half price at $80. I'm in love. Here is a pic

    I bought this same style at WalMart for $30...it fricken Rocks!  There are so many zippers and compartments that right now it seems like over-kill (my boys are 2 months old) but when they get older and I need to take more along it'll be just perfect.  The shoulder straps are very comfy and make it seem like I'm carrying nothing at all.  There is also a waist belt (for lack of a better term) so if it does get heavy, there's the added support so it isn't just on your shoulders.  I am able to carry this pack on my back easily while carrying both car seats with ease.  You couldn't do that the same if you have a bag that isn't balanced or only hanging on one shoulder.  I'd stongly recommend this bag, or one just like it.  You won't be disappointed!

    I use a petunia pickle bottom boxy back pack. I have the original and it's perfect for my twins and my 2-1/2 yo. I've used this brand for all my kids and they are amazing. Get on their mailing list for when they have sales.

    I have twins and a 3 year old and I have been using the JJB BFF.  I love all the different pockets!  They are having a sale on one specific print right now that has a BFF on sale for $60 when they are normally $165! Good luck!
