I had more then 1 biaper bag with me and when I didnt I wished I did!!

1 big one that has everything in it including the kitchen sink, 1 mom bag, 1 small bag so when I went into certain places I only carried certain essentials and saw it as everything is with me just the big bag outside if i really need it type of senerio.

It helped with weight, the what if sernio and it honest was a real life saver! I Was a single working mom for many years I would constantly forget something and then something embarrassing happened so I made it a habit to have the what if....

Everything I carried was based on different age level/ stage of my babies development.

What i had was:

- Changing pad

- Diapers

- Cloth diapers (my kids were allergic to all but 1 diaper brand and I was a single mom so they really came in handy when I didnt have the money to buy diapers)

- wipes

- Destin

- Baking flour (I know sounds weird but it works better then baby powder it helps heal baby sore butt)

- 2+ changing outfits (based on weather condition)

- garage bag for baby dirty diapers & messy clothes

- formula can

- formula separator (small container thats enough to hold enough formula for 3 bottles)

- food

- spoon

- water bottle filled with water for baby

- 2or3 baby bottle

- 2or3 burp cloths

- blanket (based on weather condition)

- toys (based on age)

- snacks (for both mom & baby)

- medications for baby (gas, tylenol, teething etc)

- change of clothes for mom (I know kind of sounds strange but it helped when baby vomit/spit up, peed etc on mom or when I nursed it helped with embarassing milk leakage, blood spots etc it was real life saver)

- breast pads

- sanitary napkins

- water bottle for mom

- brush & pony tail

- pain in the ass killers for mom

- makeup to hide the fact that I looked so damn tired when I cared

- body spray & deo

- breast pump (helped using it on my breaks when I was at working)

- lactating food

- Toothbrush & paste

- gum

- money

1 small bag to lighten the load and to put only a few items that is need with me at all times and the 2 bags to leave in the car for the just in case. I know it was honestly a pain in the ass but it really helped me. I worked 2 jobs trying to care for my baby and I best that I could I nursed & bottle fed I hardly slept and honestly didnt give a shit but wanted to look like I did plus it helped made me feel better about myself..

Im currently pregnant again with my rainbow baby and I'm no longer a single mom and to be honest with you I'd still bring 99% of all of this simply cause of them embarrassing moment's that I remember I had and that could still happen for when mommy & daddy are out on date night etc. :) :)

What do you keep in your diaper bag?
