No bueno! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diaper-bag-for-me-and-so#post-508336 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 15:15:35 +0000 Weagle 508336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We only use one. Its not super girly (backpack from Everlane), DH doesn't care anyway. It's pretty obvious that its a diaper bag when he's got a baby with him as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diaper-bag-for-me-and-so#post-508286 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 15:02:55 +0000 mediagirl 508286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought we would have two, but in the end we really only ever carry one. It is always packed with everything we need when we go out. I can't imagine always having two packed. It fits on both of us and clips onto the stroller easily. It's the Skip Hop Duo. </p> [attach=251/13/mgqicw.300x300.SKIP-HOP-duo-deluxe-black-200001.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diaper-bag-for-me-and-so#post-508279 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 15:00:39 +0000 JoJoGirl 508279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha we have been talking about this. DH is like, putting his foot down he gets to pick the diaper bag since I'm basically picking everything else. One of his books for dads told him to do that. I'm okay with it because it's not like I wanted something super girly anyway. We're going to aim to only have 1 and see how it goes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diaper-bag-for-me-and-so#post-508274 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 14:59:04 +0000 heffalump 508274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We share a bag. I let him pick it out..... like you said it's not exactly my style but that wasn't my biggest priority when you look at the big picture.</p> <p>It's too much of a hassle to keep switching things in and out of the diaper bags, it's hard enough to remember to keep refilling the one diaper bag and make sure I have enough diapers, wipes, replaced a change of clothes if LO dirtied the ones in there, etc. I couldn't imagine having to do that with two bags, either switching my things into DH's bag or having double of everything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diaper-bag-for-me-and-so#post-508273 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 14:58:53 +0000 pelikila 508273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We chose to share and I made sure to run any options I was interested in by my husband first to make sure he would be willing to carry it. That is part of why we ended up going with Ju Ju Be bags - their prints aren't all girly or baby but not all are overly masculine either and there are several styles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diaper-bag-for-me-and-so#post-508269 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 14:57:25 +0000 MaisyMay 508269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We each have one, but DH hasn't taken LO out without me yet so he hasn't used his. His is a "manly bag" that is black and can be worn on the shoulder or as a backpack. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diaper-bag-for-me-and-so#post-508256 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 14:54:05 +0000 Revel 508256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know there are a number of threads on this topic but none exactly addressed my question, and I'm putting my registry together. Would you recommend sharing a single diaper bag or each having our own?</p> <p>I would pick something that is more like a purse that FI wouldn't want to carry. If we pick a single bag it will likely be a messenger style - I'm not crazy about that but I don't hate it.</p> <p>I'm just wondering what fits people's lifestyle better? I'm envisioning, for example, one of us doing drop off and one pick up and then him being stuck with my pink bag or whatever I choose! </p> <p>For those that have individual bags, do you do a lot of shuffling stuff from one bag to the other, and carrying an empty bag? We will both be working out of the home. </p>
