Best diaper bag?
Best diaper bag?
I'll be having my third child this December and I am in need of a new diaper bag. I don't want something huge, but it has to be big enough that I can carry my newborn's things (1 or 2 changes of clothes, diapers, wipes, maybe bottles, burp cloths, a toy or two, etc.) but also my other children's things (sippy cups, snacks, diapers, changes of clothes, toys, etc.). I'd like something that has lots of pockets or different compartments so that I can keep everyone's things separate. But, I don't want a bag that's stiff or hard or too big and bulky.
Of course, I'll be going shopping to compare bags in stores but I'd like some ideas on what to look for so that I can start researching online. I have some very specific needs and looking at websites at this point is overwhelming!

I have a Petunia Pickle Bottom that I love. It has 6 pockets on the inside, two places for bottles or sippy cups on the outside, a front zipper pocket, a big back pocket for the changing pad, and it comes with a wipes case. The best thing about it, is that you can clean it so easily. I just wipe it down with Clorox wipes everytime it starts to look a little dingy. It looks great after that. I highly recommend PPB, I always get compliments on how cute my "purse" is, because they don't realize it's a diaper bag.
@KayKaysMommy I'll look into that brand.
Oh, I forgot to mention in my original post that I need to also have enough room for my own things (wallet, keys, phone, maybe a little makeup) and I need something affordable, preferably under $100.
When my son was smaller, I used a backpack diaper bag made by LLBean. I loved it - I could wear it like a backpack, so its bulk was out of sight and easy to carry. It came with a diaper changing pad and a matching "purse" for me. It had plenty of space and lots of pockets for snacks, bibs, changes of clothes, toys, and all the other detrius that comes with kids. I even use it as a carry-on and manage to fit my oversize laptop in it with room to spare!
I'd definitely look into the backpack styles of diaper bags. I had many admiring compliments on mine.
I THINK IT WILL BE GOOD TO SEARCH SOMETHING AFFORDABLE LIKE A BACKPACK THAT U COULD PUT IT IN THE BACK OF YOUR BACK AND GET SOME CHEAP BAGS FROM 99 TO PUT HIS DIAPERS AND THE DIAPER RASH CREAM, ALSO FOR YOUR MAKEUP, AND A LITTLE LUNCH BAG FROM DISNEY STORE THAT IS ASOME I HAVE ONE AND I PUT THERE THE FOOD OF MY DAUGHTER AND IS EVERYTHING ORGANIZE I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY AND ANOTHER LITTLE BAG HER LITTLE TOYS FOR SHE COULD HAVE FUN DON'T WORRY YOU WILL BE SUPER FINE YOU WILL MADE IT SUPER MOMMA
Thanks for the suggestions. I'm not into backpacks, I like bags I can just put over one shoulder. I think I've decided on a cute Hello Kitty tote bag that has lots of pockets and plenty of space.
