I carry 2 pocket diapers, wet bag, small cloth wipe pouch, A&amp;A blanket, nursing cover I even add a second change of clothes, 2 swim diapers, a rash guard and a towel for him for when we go swimming. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roomy-diaper-bag-for-cloth-diapers#post-251538 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 07:12:05 +0000 pelikila 251538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>JuJuBe's Be All or Be Prepared is our preference for carrying cloth diapers and all of the other stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roomy-diaper-bag-for-cloth-diapers#post-251527 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 06:49:30 +0000 heffalump 251527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm queen of over packing. DH always hates that we have such a heavy diaper bag.... but he doesn't complain when I always have everything we need no matter what!</p> <p>When LO was little we used the 31 utility tote. I loved it because there were lots of pockets on the outside so things were easy access and I could find things quickly. Now that LO is older I don't have to carry as many diapers with me, I don't need burp clothes or receiving blankets, and my load is a lot lighter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roomy-diaper-bag-for-cloth-diapers#post-251500 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 04:22:00 +0000 loveisstrange 251500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a JJ Cole swag bag and I can easily carry CDs with me. I normally have:</p> <p>3 bottles<br /> formula dispenser<br /> 2-3 cloth dipes<br /> 2 emergency sposies<br /> wipe case<br /> wet bag<br /> burp cloth/bib<br /> change of clothes<br /> wallet<br /> keys<br /> phone<br /> glasses case</p> <p>That's not even including the random sutff that gets shoved in the pockets like chapstick, hand sanitizer, gum, teething tablets/gel, etc. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roomy-diaper-bag-for-cloth-diapers#post-251499 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 04:11:46 +0000 looch 251499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's not a lot at all! I used to carry a lot of stuff but realized I didn't use half of it.</p> <p>I'd suggest keeping your stuff out of the diaper bag and using a small separate crossbody bag. This way, if you have to leave your diaper bag, you don't have to dig your stuff out of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roomy-diaper-bag-for-cloth-diapers#post-251401 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 21:36:27 +0000 jackieomy 251401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally agree with the overpacking. This, believe it or not, is an edited list-- those first few weeks, I needed a Sherpa to help with all the gear. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roomy-diaper-bag-for-cloth-diapers#post-251384 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 21:15:08 +0000 Weagle 251384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with rolling everything up. I have the Skip Hop Via which is smaller than the Bento, but it works well for us. Think about how you really use stuff. I just realized that I don't need more that 3 diapers (2 AIOs and 1 disposable...takes less space and I never use the sposie), cloth wipes + tiny spray bottle of water (less space than a wipes case), 1 wetbag, A&amp;A blanket (doubles as nursing cover), 1 burp cloth, a change of clothes for LO (something that packs smaller than what she actually wears out), and my personal items. You may use everything that you listed, but I found that I was way overpacked for our normal, everyday outings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roomy-diaper-bag-for-cloth-diapers#post-251382 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 21:03:58 +0000 pastemoo 251382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cvbee: Good idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roomy-diaper-bag-for-cloth-diapers#post-251354 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 20:22:00 +0000 cvbee 251354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My tip is to roll your stuff up so when you look in you can see the tip of all the rolls and access things without unpacking, as nothing will be 'under' anything else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roomy-diaper-bag-for-cloth-diapers#post-251278 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 18:50:53 +0000 jackieomy 251278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've finally made the transition to cloth, after 6 weeks in disposables. My latest conundrum? Fitting everything I need in the diaper bag. I currently have the skip hop bento bag, and I find myself stuffing it with everything I need. Any suggestions?</p> <p>I'd like to be able to fit in a bag ( and be able to easily access, without unpacking the whole darn thing!):</p> <p>4 AIOs<br /> Wipes container<br /> Wet bag<br /> Nursing cover<br /> Bottle &amp; formula tupperware container<br /> Burp cloths<br /> Change of clothes for LO<br /> Small wallet, car keys, cellphone (maybe an exterior pocket for this)</p> <p>Is this diaper bag a mystical unicorn? Anyone have something that you think would work (and is fairly reasonable in price)?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
