I can't recommend it enough. A little pricey but I couldn't ask for anything more from a diaper bag! </p> [attach=6377/16/ofk2sn.600x600.Petunia-Pickle-Bottom_PPBBBPO49100.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581973 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 19:41:11 +0000 MamaCate 2581973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@WinterBee: not really. There are two main pockets and the big one has a divider in the back that looks like it could fit a laptop. I keep diapers, changing stuff and extra clothes there. Then the little pocket has some nice things like a little mesh pocket and a key clip so I keep my Chapstick there and keys on the clip. I occasionally have to dig but not often and I think that is inevitable if you have a lot of stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581923 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 17:45:00 +0000 simplyfelicity 2581923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@WinterBee: It's probably really shallow but I want something "pretty." 😊 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581922 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 17:44:12 +0000 sslm 2581922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love my jujube BFF so far!!

I'm just nervous about getting annoyed with it. As in searching for one thing and having to take everything out to get it. Do you find that that's an issue? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581915 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 17:35:04 +0000 WinterBee 2581915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: Most people I know use duffle bags, think like gym bags. They work great! Lots of space, different compartments, can fit an organizer inside if you want, wipes out easily and is fairly inexpensive depending on the one you get. That's probably what we'll end up using as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581800 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 15:01:07 +0000 simplyfelicity 2581800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaCate: Nice! Especially with two kids, a backpack seems vital! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581799 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 15:01:04 +0000 LovelyPlum 2581799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I hate mine, too. At the moment, I'm using my purse/daybag (Osprey Flapjill, which I love, just not big enough) until I can get a better option. I need a backpack and love the idea of crossbody as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581790 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 14:55:56 +0000 MamaCate 2581790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: this is what I took to fly solo with both kids and what I use for most outings these days:</p> <p>[attach=2016/16/o9wsp9.450x600.image.jpg]</p> <p>I checked and they don't have this one anymore but it was about $50 and was marketed as like a day pack. I used it as our hiking bag before LO2 was born so I know we will keep using it after we are done with diapers. It is not as cute as some of the diaper bags but it is working well for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581783 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 14:52:33 +0000 Truth Bombs 2581783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: I have the Elizabeth. I have so many shoulder bags, I didn't need another one, so that's why I went with the Elizabeth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581781 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 14:49:44 +0000 simplyfelicity 2581781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Truth Bombs: which lily jade do you have? I am torn between the Rosie and Madeline. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581774 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 14:40:46 +0000 Truth Bombs 2581774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: I love my Lily Jade. They sell the organizer separately. So if you have bag you already love, you can just buy the LJ insert to convert your existing bag to a diaper bag. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581759 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 14:28:54 +0000 leelee 2581759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: I have the Madeline and used it for over a year everyday as a purse/work bag. When i needed to use it as a diaper bag i just threw in my diaper clutch(small bag with diaper, wipes) and sippy cup. The only reason i stopped using it recently was because I got a Fawn Design bag and wanted to give it a shot. Lily Jade is definitely a better quality bag though, my only complaint is that the straps are thin so when wearing it as a backpack, it can hurt your shoulders after awhile if the bag is full. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581724 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 13:47:11 +0000 walshbee15 2581724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also love my JuJuBe BFF! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581695 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 13:26:26 +0000 littlebug 2581695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: I don't remember the name of mine, and they don't have it anymore.

Which lily jade do you have? I really like the madeline. It is too big to use as a purse after? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581679 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 13:16:06 +0000 MamaCate 2581679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: I wear my duo cross body! Have you tried it?</p> <p>I also tend to use an Eddie Bauer hiking daypack more than a diaper bag these days. It is easier to wear for long periods and chase the kids, and it has enough space for what I need. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581605 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 12:09:49 +0000 littlebug 2581605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my timi and leslie bag! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581567 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 11:14:54 +0000 leelee 2581567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a lily jade and love it, if helps at all they often have "outlet" bags that are a little cheaper. Have you looked into Fawn Design Bags? I just got that one and it has messenger and backpack straps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-love-your-diaper-bagwhat-do-you-have#post-2581543 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 10:31:00 +0000 ValentineMommy 2581543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also like my BFF, but lately have been loving the skiphop Forma backpack. Not the most stylish thing, and I definitely never thought I'd carry a backpack, but it's SO convenient. Even DH loves it. </p> <p>I used packing cubes to organize the inside. It's lifechanging. </p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Skip-Hop-Forma-Backpack-Black/dp/B00R4PXGQ4/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1467818809&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=skip+hop+forma+backpack" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Skip-Hop-Forma-Backpack-Black/dp/B00R4PXGQ4/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1467818809&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=skip+hop+forma+backpack</a></p> <p>Mine are similar to this:<br /> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Hynes-Eagle-Travel-Packing-pieces/dp/B00NOMB8JS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1467818861&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=3+piece+packing+cubes" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Hynes-Eagle-Travel-Packing-pieces/dp/B00NOMB8JS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1467818861&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=3+piece+packing+cubes</a></p> <p>I pack one with a change of clothes for both boys, one with snacks for DS1, and one with paci wipes, sanitizer, and a first aid kit.

I have the skip hop duo and really, really dislike it. I don't like the bottle compartments, it feels so bulky but still doesn't have enough space, I have to take everything out to get one thing, and I wish the handles went over my shoulder. </p> <p>I saw a Lily Jade that converts from a backpack to a crossbody to a shoulder bag but it's nearly 300 dollars which is a bit out of my price range.</p> <p>Anyway, if you love your diaper bag, what is it? </p>
