  My SO bought me a Coach diaper bag as a gift when I was pregnant with DS. It was very spacious and I loved it. I'm not familiar with any other brands.

  I got the Skip Hop Messenger style bag.  I love it.  I'd have to poke through it again to see if any of the pockets are insulated.  I BF, so it hasn't come up yet.  I especially love the clips to clip it on my stroller handle.  Plenty of room for my needs, but if you have to pack for three, it might be too small for your needs.

  Thanks @CanadaMom17. I was looking at that bag but wasn't sure if it would be big enough. Maybe I need to do some looking into large Skip Hop bags. I loved that brand with the last two

  With my first, I had a Columbia messenger bag. It was wonderful! It had an insulated compartment, stroller straps, changing pad and reusable wet/messy bags. It was very roomy and durable and didn't scream diaper bag. We used it daily until my son was big enough that we didn't need to carry as much all the time. After that, it still worked great as an overnight bag, or to use on road trips. It got lost in a move or I'd be using it this time around as well. I purchased mine from Babies R Us about 4 years ago. It looks like it's been redesigned slightly, but still looks very similar to the one I had.

  I have a larger skip hop. It's the skip hop bento bag. I love it. There's a compartment in the bottom of the bag that unzips. Inside there's an insulated pack. It's like a rectangular cooler. Inside that there's four containers that snap together for snacks.
  
  It also had two side pockets that are both insulated. I use those for my pumped bottles when I'm out and about. M
  
  
  You can search skip hop bento bag. That's what I did. I actually watched a you tube video exploring the bag and that was super helpful
  
  And I bought it used via poshmark. I got it for $60. Washes it and it's like new.
