13 DIAPER BAG packing tips
1. CHOOSE A BACKPACK
Though there are such lovely bags, go with a backpack style diaper bag to free up your hands for pushing the stroller, getting the baby in and out of the car seat or carrying the baby.
2. FIND A BAG WITH LOTS OF STORAGE COMPARTMENTS
Look for a diaper bag with lots of external and internal pouches and compartments. You'll be able to organize all of the diaper essentials and won't have to dig through the whole bag to find something.
3. GET A WALLET OR SMALL CLUTCH FOR YOURSELF
Why carry two bags when one will suffice? Use a wallet or small clutch to carry your credit cards, cash and identification. Pack the wallet in the diaper bag for convenience.
4. HANG TISSUES & hand SANITIZEr OUTSIDE THE DIAPER BAG
You'll need both of these items often and in a hurry, so keep them where it is easy to grab.
5. PACK A FORMULA DISPENSER
Fill a formula dispenser and take it with you to make baby's formula while on the go.
6. use A DIAPER CLUTCH
We love the flexibility of a diaper clutch since you can take it in the diaper bag, strap it to your wrist or clip it to the stroller.You'll also be able to pack all of the diapering essentials together for quick runs to the restroom for diaper changes with the little one.
7. USE CLEAR COSMETICS CASES OR POUCHES AS DIAPER BAG ORGANIZERS
Use these awesome cosmetic bags which are transparent and waterproof to organize all of the diapering essentials.
8. STORE PACIFIERS IN STORAGE CONTAINER
Don't forget to take baby's pacifiers whenever you are heading out with the baby. You' ll also need these storage cases to keep the pacifiers away from bacteria.
9. ORGANIZE YOUR DIAPERING ESSENTIALS BY CATEGORY
There are a lot of essentials you will need to pack in the diaper bag as you'll see below. So organize all of those essentials by category.
10. ATTACH A WASTE BAG DISPENSER TO THE DIAPER BAG
You'll need waste bags in a hurry to dispose baby's dirty diapers or pack soiled clothes. Attach one of these dispensers to the diaper clutch or even the diaper bag for quick and easy diaper changes.
11. SNAG A WET BAG
Always carry a waterproof wet bag inside the diaper bag to bring home dirty or wet clothes.
12. RE-STOCK YOUR DIAPER BAG AS SOON AS YOU GET HOME
The last thing you probably want to do once you are home after an outing with the baby is to spend time packing the bag. Trust us. You'll never know when you'll have to run out again, so be prepared and pack that bag ASAP!
13. KEEP THE DIAPER BAG IN THE MUDROOM OR WHEREVER YOU KEEP YOUR CAR KEYS
Those of us who've been carrying diaper bags for a while will tell you that there are times when we've all gone out at some point and forgotten to take the diaper bag. What a total disaster! Keep the diaper bag by your key, so you'll rarely forget it. You could also keep a changing pad, wipes and diapers in the car for emergencies.
THE PERFECTLY ORGANIZED DIAPER BAG: HERE'S HOW TO PACK THE DIAPER BAG
- Don't over-pack. It will take a toll on your shoulders and you'll have a harder time finding the things you need.
- Separate things that you use often and pack together.
- Use a large pouch to pack the changing pad, diapers, wipes, diaper cream and a change of clothes for the baby.
- Pack another pouch for mommy stuff like an extra t shirt, hair clips, nipple cream, breast pads, lip balm and breastfeeding cover.
- Pack a small first aid kit with things like band-aids, sunscreen, etc
- Pack a small pouch with snacks for mom. And, of course for the baby eventually.
- Choose sample sized products when buying baby products such as lotions and ointments for the diaper bag
- Always have a mini umbrella in the diaper bag. We certainly don't want to get your little one sick!
- When packing diapers the rule of thumb is to have at-least one diaper for every hour you are out of the house.
- Keep bottles and food items in the outer pockets for health and safety concerns.
- Pack some clip on toys in the diaper bag.
