The Diaper Bag Checklist


(This post may contain affiliate links, but all opinions are 100% my own. )

So first and foremost, I pretty much always try to have my diaper bag packed and ready to go literally in my car or by the front door.  I try to replenish things as needed because with three kiddies I feel like we're always on the go.  I've admitedly over-packed and under-packed over the years and this list is my current baby bag must haves.  It only took my three kids to compile this. Click the links/photos   below for quick shopping!  Amazon Prime is my life these days! Feel free to comment with any tips because I'm still always up for advice!

DIAPER BAG & CHANGING PAD- While I don't feel like it's necessary to spend a ton on a bag itself, I mean they go everywhere,  my husband did get me a Kate Spade bag with our first and honestly I do love it and it's survived and held up well!  So if you're into that kind of thing I linked one here (about $150) but anything will do the trick! Moms are even rocking mini backpacks these days which are even easier and hands-free! I'll link one of those also! Those come in a few colors and are $49-68.  








BIBS- I would keep at least 2 in your bag...drool, spit up, babies are messy! Rosie Pope's prints are so fun and they're always on sale on Amazon and Zulily!





SOCKS




SWADDLES/MUSLIN BLANKETS- I'm obsessed with these and feel their worth a little splurge they're all over my house and I keep 2 in my bag. 




DIAPERS & WIPES- At least 5 diapers and a pack of wipes, I always keep extras in my car as well!


BURP CLOTHS- 2-3 This brand has the cutest prints and are so soft!







OUTFITS & PAJAMAS- 2-3 because you just never know! Again loving these soft and bright Rosie Pope printed coveralls.




BLANKET- This one is 100% Organic Cotton and less than $25!



SWEATER- Burt's Bees clothing is so soft! These come in Gray, Pink, Blue 0-24 mo's and are under $20!




DIAPER SACKS- Well, because SH*T HAPPENS!


DIAPER CREAM- I LOVE Honest products!


HAND SANITIZER


THERMOMETER & TRAVEL FIRST AIDE KIT- Be that mom that does have the Band-Aid!






BABY TOYS- 2-3 will do




PACIFIER (if used)- You can't be caught out without 1 or 10 if your baby uses one LOL!


BOTTLES, SNACKS, BABY FOOD- I have been through ALL of the bottles I feel like and these were the least fuss to clean and a baby fav.  You'll want a few pouches if your onto baby food and maybe some yogurt bites, or the toddler-mom BFF "Puffs" 




NURSING COVER- You can totally use a thin muslin blanket but if you prefer covers this if soft & inexpensive!






BOOKS- I usually have two small books on hand for waiting at doctors, long car rides etc.




SUN HAT- So many colors, less than $10




TIDE STICK


MOM SNACKS- Lara Bars are great and there really isn't a lot of time to eat with little one's so throw a few snacks for yourself in your bag!
