Which diaper bag do you like to use at disney

[GoofyG]

I have the skip hop diaper bag, I like it alot. I still haven't found one that I like for Disney World. I was thinking of a backpack one, but don't know what to get. I have 3 kids, the baby will be 9mos when we go and DD2 will be 3 in April. But potty training is a hit and miss. (It has to be on her terms) I will be dealing with the baby and the bag. I'm looking for ideas!

Definitely a backpack. We used a diaper bag the first trip and a backpack the second and the backpack was WAY easier and more comfortable. Find a backpack that is soft. I used an Eddie Bauer backpack from Target (I couldn't find it online for a link), that folded down to nothing when it was empty. My husband liked it because it shaped to his back and to the things that were in it.
It wasn't big and bulky even if there was only diapers and wipes in it and it stretched every which way when it was full with sweatshirts stuffed in it.

If you could find a picture that would be great, I'm going to google for one. I just need something easy for me to handle. It's my parents and I with 3 kids. SO I would have the baby to handle, the bag, and either a stroller or another child at times. My dad takes care of the big stroller when we are doing the trams. DH will be in JApan for this trip, so each of us gets a kid. This is our 5th trip with kids and I haven't found the bag I like for disney yet.

I have the eddie bauer backpack from Target too! My original diaper bag was a Vera Bradley baby bag which is lovely, but my DH wasn't too happy to carry it around- we only used that for one trip, and then we found the Eddie Bauer one in the clearance section at Target for $20! I was thrilled, and it's been our "all the time" diaper bag every since. The other thing I like about it is that it has hooks so you can attach it to the stroller (if you want). I couldn't find a picture of the one I have online...it's about a year and a half old now, and the ones I have seen look a little bigger...Good luck!

I have the Peutunia Pickle Bottom bag for WDW, I have a Skip Hop as well and was my travel bag for a while but then I had DS #2 and got a bag, new baby new bag , i stopped at one tho. It was the best investment ever. I had 5 baby bags for various purposes for DS #1 this bag covers every need. We got the boxy back pack/messenger style bag and the valet clips. It's the absolute everything bag. I had trouble clipping the strap on and off of the Skip Hop bag it got irritating, strap off strp on stroller, strap off reattach strap, etc, etc, etc.

The PPB bag i leave both the back pack straps and messanger strap on as well sometimes it's easier to pull over my shoulder across my body but when i need to i can throw it on as a back pack. The valet clips hold the thing to the stroller like iron. And the bags are super cute. We have the black and red one so it looks more stylish than a baby bag but still cute so Dh doesn't mind at all he's totally anti anything with a bear, etc. so am I tho. The changing pad is amazing too, it just unzips and rolls out but you can detach for cleaning. I've gotten more compliments on that bag while traveling.

Last trip, we used our Skip Hop and I had a ziplock bag with a change of clothes that I kept in the bottom basket of the stroller. The Skip Hop was plenty big enough for diapers, wipes, snacks, sunscreen, etc.

I have a JuJuBe be small but I can promise you it won't be big enough for your needs. Perhaps the JuJuBe Be All or the Packabe (that's their backpack one, I think)

This is what we got for our upcoming trip....it holds a lot more than you think! DH will be wearing it since I might be "wearing" baby often.

As a mom of twin boys who are now 2, I LOVE the Skip-Hop diaper bags. They are by far the best diaper bags. I have the Duo Double, but I also have a single. We were at Disney in Feb 08 and the twins were 16 mos old at the time and we used our Duo Double. I just hooked it right to the back of our stroller. We kept our essential baby gear in it, then just grabbed a diaper, wipes, and lap pad out of it when changing one of the boys. We also took a back pack as well -- there were six of us total on the trip and we used the backpack for our digital SLR camera, plus some snacks and carrying long-sleeved t-shirts and sunscreen. The front pocket of our back pack has a place to hold your license and credit cards, cash, etc. We've used this back pack in all our travels over the past several years. It's great. I think it's made by Eastpack, but I could be wrong.

I use my Vera Bradley backpack, come to think of it, I need a new one!

 

[GoofyG]

I noticed skip hop made a backpack one, has anyone seen it. I was trying to see if that would be good. I do like skip hop, just would like something easier. Since DH won't be with us this trip.

I have 2 Skip Hops bags (Duo & Spark) that I use at at home but not at WDW. Youngest DD has been at 3 mos, 15 mos, and at 26 mos. At 3 mos, we used the Amy Coe Skip Hop knockoff from Target for the plane and then brought the cheapie free bag from the hospital to use in the parks. It zipped all the way close and I didn't have to worry about it being thrown around or getting dirty. Halfway through that trip, I left that in the room and just used a backpack anyway as my DH was very ill and I was on my own most days with 2 DD's.

At 15 mos, we used the backpack again but a bigger one. We split up most nights with me usually getting the baby so it was easier to put her in the Ergo, grab the stroller, and backpack and go. But this past September, I tried the Skip Hop Saddlebags for the 1st time! They were great!!

I found good deals on 2 so went for it. I had one on each side of our Baby Jogger Mini and they held pretty much all of our baby needs with plenty of room to spare. I couldn't believe how roomy they really were! We put in sippy cups, juice boxes, snacks, spare outfits, diapers, wipes, etc. and still did not fill either one. We did hang a different bag off the handle for bulkier things like Pal Mickey, stroller raincover, ponchos, the Ergo, mugs, etc. Plus the Saddlebags folded right up with the stroller without having to be emptied out.

I am really glad that I had bought them!! I definitely recommend them!!

Here's the packabe:

The Eddie Bauer bag has 2 mesh side pockets to hold bottles and a front zipper compartment. When you look in Target, it is folded down into a zippered pouch about 7X9 inches.

Here's a tip that I use when traveling w/ our DD.
I pack a ziploc bag w/ everything I would need to change a bum such as a diaper, a snack sized bag packed w/ a few wipes, disposable change pads, and sometimes if I can find them the sample pkgs of diaper cream. This way I don't have to lug the whole bag w/ me as I can jsut grab one little ziploc bag and go.
And when you're done, throw the dirty diaper back in the ziploc bag and toss it.
They work like a charm.

I ned to go look at target. I was there today, but a 2yr odl throwing a fit made me leave early! Thanks fort he info, I know what to llok for. There are some cute bags out there.

We used a regular backpack to keep extra diapers, clothes, sippies, & a small soft-sided cooler with bottles in. We also kept our own things in there so we only had one bag to carry.

We attached this bag to our stroller http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3091044 and kept a couple of diapers, wipes, disposable changing pads, a light blanket, snack bowl & a sippie in it. We were amazed at how much it held and loved having those items right at hand without having to constantly dig through a bag. We simply grabbed the diaper, wipes and changing pad when we needed to change a diaper. It very easily folded up with the stroller.

Next month will be our first trip to Disney with our DS (12mo old). We're very excited but planning a trip with a baby can feel overwhelming at times. My plan for a diaper bag is to use the cheap, free one we got at the hospital to hold his change of clothes, extra diapers, snacks, toys, etc for the day. And store it in the bottom of the stroller. Our umbrella stroller will definitely fall over once DS comes out if any diaper bag is attached to it. Plus, we'll feel OK leaving it in stroller parking.

I've purchased a KAVU keeper bag from endless.com ($21.25 w/ free overnight shipping) and very excited about it!! I rec'd it today. It's a compact, cross body bag 11' high and 8.5" wide, 1" deep. The main compartment can easily fit one or two diapers, wipes, disposable changing pads as well as my camera. Everything we would need for a diaper change as well as to take with us to attractions. There's a front, flap pocket that can fit sunglasses and other things. And on top of it is a zippered pocket that I can fit a coin purse wallet. It's exactly what I was looking for it, and hopeful it will work out for us.

Well I went with the Ju-Ju-Be Packabe. I love it, and I have room for everything even my camera! I don't leave my bag with my stroller. I also will have the baby in a sling so I ahd to come up with something. Worth the money!
