I never use it for that though. I got it for when I have to go to the market and have to take both of my kids with me. I don't want to carry my diaper bag with me. Just need something to put my wallet, phone, and keys in there. My youngest hardly need to be changed when I go grocery shopping. Well, not like when he was a newborn. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-351321 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 23:09:22 +0000 SAHM0811 351321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pastemoo: I've used the Skip Hop Via Backpack with both the Ergo and Beco Gemini. To get something out of the bag, yes, I have to take it off first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-349795 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 08:41:39 +0000 pastemoo 349795@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Chastenet: Nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-349782 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 08:36:49 +0000 Chastenet 349782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I refuse to buy a diaper bag. I purchased a larger across the body purse that I can fit my diapers and portable changing pad in. I wear the purse beneath my baby ktan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-349777 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 08:34:12 +0000 pastemoo 349777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shortcake: I use gDiapers, too. The size of your purse sounds like it is the size of my purse/diaper bag :) I usually bring an extra cover, 2 cloths and 1 disposable.<br /> I am out nearly every day so it would be changing diapering systems if I switched.<br /> I guess I just need a nice(r) purse. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-349104 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 21:17:48 +0000 shortcake 349104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, we live in NYC, so we sometimes walk for hours. If we are going to be out all day and not in car or someone's house with a kid, I bring some extras (an outfit, an extra gdiaper). But I use the disposable inserts in the gdiapers so it is probably a lot less to carry. What about using disposables just on days you are out a lot? </p> <p>Oh, and yes I admit, my purse tends to be large. It can usually hold an ipad, flats, wallet, magazine, and tons of other junk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-347960 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 17:49:39 +0000 pastemoo 347960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shortcake: How long do you stay out?<br /> My old purses were the 7"x4" type "mini purses"--wouldn't hold a single cloth insert with my wallet and phone in there!<br /> My current diaper bag is a "regular" sized purse that a friend gave me way back when. I carry 2 inserts but also 1 or 2 covers depending on how long we will be out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-347259 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 13:39:57 +0000 shortcake 347259@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have a diaper bag we don't use anymore. honestly, i throw an extra insert or two (we cloth diaper) a small ziploc of wipes and some diaper cream in a big ziploc and throw that in my purse. i can see it getting harder when we need more stuff, like food, spoons, water, etc. but for now i just don't carry the diaper bag when we go out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-345689 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 21:19:14 +0000 pastemoo 345689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NYCaliMama: What kind of carrier? Do you reach in while it is on or have to take it off to grab things?</p> <p>@QBbride: I saw that at a local store and it is HUGE for my frame but otherwise it is super cute! I love the way the diaper changer is.</p> <p>@MerryC: Backpack?</p> <p>Everyone is using a back pack! Huh. I am still definitely looking for a shoulder bag. In all my years of school I know I always overpack a back pack. I'm glad you ladies all found such great bags. :)<br /> @runsyellowlites: :) I totally can't pull off a backpack. More power to you!<br /> @edelweiss: I like all the jujube bags I've seen.<br /> @MungBean: I've never seen that bag.<br /> @winniebee: Someone totally does. As frumpy as I dress lately--I am too vain for a fanny pack. :P<br /> @lemondrop: :)</p> <p>And.... what if you're carrying LO on your back, how do you carry the backpack? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-345684 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 21:16:34 +0000 Mrs. Confetti 345684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Winniebee: LOVE it! literally LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-345596 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 19:42:46 +0000 pinkcupcake 345596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: Hahahaha that's an awesome idea!

I have a 12x12" shoulder bag, so I will throw a bottle, diaper, and wipes in along with my usual purse stuff. I leave the diaper bag in the car, just in case. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-345402 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 17:39:02 +0000 winniebee 345402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They should make diaper fanny packs LOL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-345388 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 17:25:58 +0000 pinkcupcake 345388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually stuff a couple diapers, wipes, my keys, phone, &amp; credit card into my Skip Hop pronto. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-344717 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 13:09:47 +0000 edelweiss 344717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was planning on buying a diaper backpack. just a basic one, or maybe one from jujube:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.ju-ju-be.com//BFF-at-Ju-Ju-Be-in-PID10858-09FM02A.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://shop.ju-ju-be.com//BFF-at-Ju-Ju-Be-in-PID10858-09FM02A.aspx</a></p> <p><a href="http://shop.ju-ju-be.com//Be-Right-Back-at-PID12061-12BP01A.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://shop.ju-ju-be.com//Be-Right-Back-at-PID12061-12BP01A.aspx</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-344701 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 13:02:07 +0000 runsyellowlites 344701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a diaper bag backpack! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-344699 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 13:01:20 +0000 twinmama 344699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I frequently wear one of the kids in an ergo while we're out and my cross body and shoulder bags just didn't work. I currently use a daypack from LLBean. It has 2 main compartments each with pockets...I use the smaller for my stuff like wallet, cell phone and the larger for all the baby stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-344654 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 12:40:19 +0000 QBbride 344654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My friend had a PPB boxy backpack... I really like it!

I am thinking I want a bag pretty much in that price range, too. :(<br /> I want a leather one with a thin but strong strap so I can keep it tucked under the carrier strap.<br /> And... I want it to have an option cross body strap.<br /> AND I want it to have all compartments that close.</p> <p>It's like looking for a needle in a haystack. A very expensive haystack of expensive straw! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-344564 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 11:57:03 +0000 Weagle 344564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've yet to find a good bag for babywearing. Well, I did find a bag once made specifically for babywearing. It was made out of a wrap and was beautiful - not weird/hippie/cutesy as some of that stuff can be. Alas, it was upwards of $300. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-carry-diapers-when-babywearing#post-344549 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 11:52:29 +0000 pastemoo 344549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always carry a diaper bag because I like to walk and to be as far from my car as possible.</p> <p>And because I babywear (and because I'm tiny and "real" diaper bags are so huge) I still haven't found a diaper bag for me.</p> <p>When I carry my current purse "diaper bag" I either use the cross body strap across both shoulders OVER the carrier straps, or with the smaller straps on one shoulder underneath the carrier strap.</p> <p>How do you carry diapers when babywearing (or do you only babywear for short excursions when you can leave the diaper bag at home)? </p>
