I always enjoy watching those "What's in my diaper bag" videos on YouTube and wanted to do one of my own. Here is what I'm currently using as a diaper bag. It's a LeSportsac medium weekender bag that I got at TJ Maxx for around $40 bucks. Just like I am with my purses/handbags (refer to previous post) I am also picky with my diaper bags. Here are the requirements that must meet my expectations:
1. It has to be one strapped with shorter double straps in case I need to grab it that way.
2. It has to have lots of outside pockets to store bottles, wipes, toys, nukis, etc.
3. The material has to be easily cleaned and spill proof.
4. The overall size cannot be long since I'm short and long diaper bags hit my knees when I use them.
5. Price pays a big role too. It can't be more than $50 dollars.
This weekender bag met all of my requirements so I snatched it up!
Here is what's inside my diaper bag for a 5 month old:
- Diapers (not pictured) currently using Pampers Swaddlers. My husband likes the wetness indicator line.
- Wipes. Currently using Pampers Sensitive wipes and I put them in the Huggies wipe travel case.
- Changing pad. I ordered my gray chevron print changing pad on Etsy.com from https://www.etsy.com/shop/lauriesladybug for $18 bucks and I love it for it's long and wide shape. Also, it's very easy to clean. I loved it so much I bought 2 for my 2 sister in-laws who also had babies this year.
- Mum+Bub Soothing Ointment. BEST invention ever! My baby's bum hasn't had a rash since switching over to this from Aquaphor and The Honest Company.
- Extra clothes for him in case of accidents.
- Burp cloth.
- His favorite toys. At the moment, his green tether/rattler from Innobaby and Moby the Fish from Haba Toys.
- A baby carrier. I'm currently using a Hmong traditional baby carrier that my Mother in-law gifted us.
- The small LeSportsac pouch with extra items (see below).
Inside this pouch I have:
- EOS chapstick
- Bug Spray from The Honest Company (although I should take that out since Summer is over and now I have to worry about chapped skin)
- Breast pads (currently using Lansinoh)
- Panty liners
- Hand Sanitizer from Jurlique
- Baby nail clipper
