What are your diaper bag must-have's?

It's been a while since I've packed a diaper bag. What are some of your absolute must-have's in your diaper bag (besides the obvious diapers and wipes)?

Re: What are your diaper bag must-have's?

The first time I left the house with DD after bringing her home from the hospital I totally forgot a diaper bag! It's been so long I just walked out with her and nothing else. Yikes.

So I have:
Changing pad
Diapers
Wipes
Desitin
2 outfits (including socks!)
Bib
Burp Cloth
Blanket
Hand Sanitizer

I bf so I don't have any feeding stuff but if I didn't I guess extra bottle and/or nipple?

ETA: Also hand sanitizer and little baggies for dirty diapers/clothes.

Everything that has been mentioned plus a few empty gallon sized Ziploc bags. They come in useful for all sorts of things like dirty clothes, diapers when there is no place close to throw them away, etc

Mine too! LOL. I had the Skip hop double duo diaper bag for my twins which was huge and held everything! But then I still had to carry my purse and it was just too much! I ditched that bag, went to the outlets and got myself a nice Kate Spade diaper bag and now I use it as my purse too! Chat Icon

I thought the same thing!

When he was a newborn, I had diapers, wipes, diaper cream, burp clothes (he spit up like every 5 seconds), and a change of clothes.

ETA: I only used an actual diaper bag for a few months. Now everything (2 diapers and wipes) goes in a small bag.

I have a small cross body bag that holds everything and don't carry a separate purse. No desire to lug the whole nursery with me when I go out. Although that could be why dd had to leave a doctor appointment in nothing but a diaper a rain boots recently after getting sick on her clothes. Chat Icon

Re: What are your diaper bag must-have's?

I carry around way too much crap.
Other than diapers & wipes I have... a change of clothes for each kid, a sweater, sunglasses, sunscreen, hats, toilet cover for public restrooms, sippy cup/bottle, bib, a few plastic bags for garbage or dirty diaper, tissues, a placemat & spoon for if we go out to eat, snacks, lotion/bacitracin if someone gets a cut, Epi Pens, stuffed animal/book/toy.... probably stuff I'm forgetting.

Do you like your Kate Spade? I have one too and I feel like it hardly holds anything- and I really don't go overboard with what I carry around!
