DIAPER BAG NECESSITIES
First, let’s cover the diaper bag necessities that every diaper bag must have before leaving the house. You’ll need the basics, such as diapers, wipes, diaper cream and an outfit change (now that I shared my story with you I bet you won’t forget that extra outfit). Hand sanitizer and plastic bags are also essential for messes!
Bring along bottles or a sippy cup as well as formula or nursing supplies. Don’t forget snacks! If you’ve ever been caught waiting somewhere with your baby then you know the importance of snacks.
DIAPER BAG EXTRAS
If you are in the market for a new diaper bag, then there are a few things to look for that come in handy while traveling with baby.
- Insulated bottle bag – These are really handy to keep your formula or breastmilk chilled in the diaper bag.
- Mini mommy bag – I hate carrying a purse and a diaper bag into a restaurant or store. Diaper bags that include a mini mommy bag mean you can easily stash your cash/credit cards, phone and lip balm in there and ditch your purse.
- Changing pad – There is nothing worse than changing your baby on an unsanitary surface. By bringing your own diaper changing pad in your diaper bag, you are able to ensure you’ll always have a clean surface to change your baby on.
- Stroller clips – It’s really handy to be able to clip your diaper bag onto the handle of your stroller. This isn’t a diaper bag necessity, but it is nice to have!
DIAPER BAG ESSENTIALS FOR MOM:
It is handy to have a few things on hand to make life easier so I also added extras on the diaper bag checklist. I recommend always bringing an extra shirt for yourself in case your baby spits up on you.
