Baggalllini or diaper bag?

[disneyfreak33]

We are leaving for WDW in 18 days so I need to make up my mind quick so I can order and get it shipped here in time.

I am torn between buying one of these Baggallini's or just using our diaper bag which is big and bulky but holds everything we need for our daughter who is only 1.

I need a change of clothes for her. She is still drinking out of a bottle (trying to get her to use sippy cups but she just won't have it) so I need to bring at least one bottle. Diapers, wipes, bibs for eating. Her "Grinch" she had gotten for Christmas because she cannot go anywhere with it! of course her snacks and bottled water we are bringing from home.

Then there are the things we need to bring for us adults. Camera, money etc.

My dilemma is all this stuff will fit in her diaper bag even our stuff, but I hate the fact of bringing that with us. That would be the only thing to fit in the basket underneath our stroller we are bringing. I like to carry light if at all possible. I like the Baggallini it seems to be big but will it fit all her stuff I need to bring? should I spend the money and buy one? I just don't know!!

My husband will probably shoot me if I buy one more thing for this trip. I already went out and bought new clothes for all of us, new shoes the list goes on but he knows I like to travel as light as possible so one last thing will not hurt IMO!

Not sure how big the Grinch is...but it sure will hold everything else you have mentioned. I have a 2-year-old and we fit diapers, bottles, change of clothes and all our stuff with no problem. Definitely much better than carrying a diaper bag IMO, but if you are going to put it in the stroller basket anyway, not sure there would be a huge benefit to getting a baggalini. Personally, I cannot do without mine now and even use it around town.

We actually use our baggallini as our diaper bag. I love all the pockets, and it was very handy at WDW since it slipped over the stroller handles and laid flat against the back of the stroller. You wouldn't believe all the crap I had shoved in that thing at WDW!!!

We have a graco twins stroller. We found that we took a small bag on rides with us holding valuables (camera etc.) and left the rest in the stroller's lower basket mostly loose diapers, extra clothes, Nemo doll (can't leave home without it) and juice boxes etc. That was the easiest b/c they search when you enter the parks and if all is in a back pack or anything you have to pull it out, unzip it etc. So I just tossed it all in the bottom. It made for easier access anyway - just reach down and feel around for a diaper and pack of wipes. Have fun!

Great! thanks so much for the replies, I am going to go for it.

I think you'll be happy with the baggellini. I use mine all the time for Disney. I usually pack an empty walmart bag in the bag too. Then once I get through security, I take out whatever items I don't really need in the bag. Like a bunch of diapers, and put them on the bottom of the stroller in the walmart bag. I'm able to fit an extra shirt, shorts, camera, etc. in the bag with no problems.

Go for the baggallini. I got one for our recent trip to WDW and haven't switched back over to my regular diaper bag. I love having it "on" me and it doesn't get in the way at all on rides. I think you'll be able to fit whatever you need in it. I love it!
