This week's Toddle Along Tues(Wednes)day topic is What's in your diaper bag?
My disclaimer? This doesn't include all of the new things I now carry around for tube feeding. I wasn't really ready to think about that yet.
The bag: Skip Hop Duo - I love it! I've had many, many diaper bags (like most moms) and this is the one I always return to. Later iterations of this bag have replaced one of the mesh pockets with a cell phone holder - I'm super glad I have this version, because I like to stuff bottles and sippies in there!
The Contents: We travel pretty light. Feeding tube accessories are a suitcase all their own, so I try to keep it to the essentials here.
- Wipes (We like Huggies, but Pampers Thick Care will work if they're on sale)
- 3 Diapers (Pampers Baby Dry, Size 3)
- 3 Bottles (Tommee Tippee, pre-filled with water and a container of Neocate Jr. formula)
- 2 Epi Pens (you never know!)
- Mommy's inhaler
- Baby Tylenol (generic. Tylenalmost?)
- Toy Bag (containing board book/flip cards, rattles, C-3PO, and a "don't touch my baby" tag)
These have been our go-to items for months now. Aidan normally carries around his pacifier (usually a Wubbanub) and his blanky (Aden & Anais Issie), so I have no need to pack a spare. I just toss my wallet into the bag and off we go!
Conspicuously missing? A change (or ten) of clothes, which will now be standard fare since we're the owners of a very leaky feeding tube!
We have Epi-Pens in our diaper bag too. Your son is so adorable. I really enjoy reading your blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love your blog too - Dylan is such a beautiful boy!
DeleteWe have the same diaper bag but in different prints! It's seriously the best diaper bag!
ReplyDeleteIt really is. I keep trying to replace it with something cuter, but nothing has measured up yet.
DeleteOoO, good to knoooow! I can't wait until I'm a proud diaper bag carrier.
ReplyDeleteDeciding what to put in your diaper bag is an art form, really.
DeleteI love how your diaper bag has purse straps plus the messenger strap. That is what my duo model is missing!
