Do you need a big diaper bag?
So, should you have a big diaper bag, and if so, what should go in it?
It may be better to think about two bags instead of one. Here is the line of thinking... have a little one will be fine for quick trips around the neighborhood, and a larger one for longer outings. With a larger bag you can hold an extra set of clothes and extra food, they both can have the baby basics: diapers, wipes, couple toys, etc. When just stepping out to visit some friends or a quick trip to the park, a smaller bag makes it easy to grab it and go.
If you choose to have a smaller bag, here is a quick list of items that you may consider the essential:
- diapers
- formula
- bottle
- wipes (in a plastic case for smaller amounts)
- food/snacks
- pacifier
- little toy
- childrens Motrin/ Tylenol
- anti-bacterial sanitizer
- zip-lock bag (for dirty diapers)
You could even use a smaller bag as a purse to cut down on extra items while you travel. Let us know your thoughts - post a comment.
