Diaper bags?

Question

Is it me or is there like a million and one different choices for everything?!?!?!?!?! It's so overwhelming! What's everyone's preference for diaper bags and why? TIA!

Answer

Well, I'll be the first one to say - you get what you pay for. With my first baby, I had no idea what I was doing. I was the one with the $30 Graco diaper bag that matched the car seat and stroller. Let me tell ya, it done it's job, but fell apart quickly and didn't have any room for organizing since it was just an open hole. I ended up getting the Vera Bradley diaper bag and it was just as bad. By the time I had my second, I researched every single thing. I ended up buying a Petunia Picklebottom Boxy Backpack and it was the best diaper bag I had ever used! It was totally worth every penny and resale value after I was done with it, was just about as good as retail! It was easily cleaned and had tons of room for storage and even a cute little wipe case and attached changing pad. I am now pregnant with Baby #3 and guess what? I'm buying another Petunia Picklebottom because they are THAT great.

Hubby and I will both get one since he'll be staying home with her 2 days out of the week but we both decided on a backpack style! Not really sure what brand since we haven't registered yet but you are so right, there are a million choices for everything it's insane 😂

Answer

Mine just arrived yesterday! Hubby's just going to use a backpack. It's super cute, plenty of room, and stylish of course 😉

Answer

I am doing a Marc Jacobs backpack. I had a petunia picklebottom and a Louis Vouitton as diaper bags with my first and I liked the sided pockets a lot, but the backpack is a godsend! I started using one with our kids now and such a difference!! My diaper backpack though HAS to have the side pockets for bottles, keys, etc...

I'm thinking about just getting a cheap carters $30 bag. It's huge and has both handles and a cross body strap. I'm cloth diapering and I think this one will be big enough. But I hear about a lot of cloth moms buying the expensive skip hop and ju ju be brands because they are quite roomy. I want to die thinking about sending over $100 on a diaper bag!

Answer

I highly recommend a diaper bag backpack! I didn't discover it until after my son was 1. Best thing ever 👏🏼

Answer

I had the Kate Spade Stevie for #1 and really liked it. But now that I'll have two to wrangle I want something with a messenger strap. I'm between the Honest Company bag and a Pottery Barn bag.

Answer

Backpack style is the way to go!! I bought an expensive jujube bag and a Vera wang bag but when my son was 5 weeks old I switched to a $25 backpack style diaper bag from Walmart and I've been using it since.

Answer

We got a backpack, easier to carry when holding a baby & the straps hook around a stroller. Also my husband picked it out so he enjoys it as well. We got a Oakley one because they're so durable, water resistant, and large space.
