Bagallini for parents with younger kids??

[flynnmnstr]

How much storage is in this bag? I need to bring a pouch with my DS meds (benedryl, epi pen, etc), camera, sunblock, hopefully some pull ups and wipes and maybe DS's bathing suits (they love playing in the water playgrounds). I do not need to pack any snacks b/c I bring a insulated lunch box b/c DS has allergies.

Enough storage or no? We normally bring a backpack but its so bulky and we are going in August this year and we want to minimize load.

You know I think it will all fit. I filled mine with pretty much all of that stuff and it fit nicely. However, the more full it is, the more awkwardly it fits across your body -- if you are keeping it in the stroller basket and just slinging it over your shoulder or keep the bag part resting over your bum, it will be perfect!

I had the backpack type bagallini on this past trip and it would definitely hold all of that in it.

I brought the bagallini with us last year and have a 3 and 4 year old. It was too small, I used it one day and then went back to my backpack. I was trying to fit rain ponchos, sunscreen, autograph books, camera, a couple of snacks and 2 water bottles. Then when we got to the park, I had to add the map and show times guide. It was just too tight and too awkward to carry. I would recommend sticking with the backpack, or try the Overland Donner Bag. I just ordered that this week and it arrived yesterday. It seems a little deeper and wider than the bagallini.

I own both the baggallini messenger and the Overland Donner and it terms of space, the baggallini wins hands down. I think the OD is much smaller. Or maybe I only see it that way.

I think you will able to fit it all in there.

I really want it to work. I forgot about the rain ponchos though, considering we are going in August, but I can probably fit them in my Maclaren stroller organizer. Thanks again everyone!!

You can definetly keep the ponchos in the stroller organizer.

If you have a Maclaren, you can put a lot of stuff in the basket, you can´t put a diaper bag per se, but what we did was bring a tote bag with EVERYTHING in ziplock bags (great suggestion from the disboards), so we put everything in the basket and folded the tote bag and put in there too.
