What is in My Diaper Bag???

Hey All!

I have always been known to be a bit of an over packer, but honestly, it comes in handy when you have a baby! I got 3 different diaper bags from two different baby showers I had for my daughter, Nora. I keep two of them packed. I had hoped to get a daddy diaper bag for my hubby but that didn't happen. Maybe for the next one ;)

Here is what I keep packed in BOTH of my diaper bags:
-A bottle of foam hand sanitizer
-A pack of Wipes
-8 Diapers at a time (unless I'm traveling overnight somewhere)
-A little tub of Desitin cream
-2 onsies and an extra outfit
-Extra socks, mittens, hat, and booties.
-Small pack of Kleenex tissues
-1 to 2 bottles
-To-Go tubes of formula (each tube has enough formula to make a 4oz bottle!)
-A changing pad
-A built in soiled clothing bag
-Arm&Hammer odor blocking diaper bags
-2 Pacifiers
-Bibs & Burp Cloths
-A bottle of water (so I can make bottles on-the-go)
-Gas Drops (I like to put them in my daughters bottles to help her not be so gassy or fussy)

I believe that is all I carry on the majority of days. Sometimes I'll carry a toy or two but she hasn't really shown much interest in them yet. She will be 3 months on February 15th! :')

I have learned to always keep stocked up on everything in my bags. At her 2 week check-up she exloded through her diaper and it leaked through her clothes. I took the wrong bag, not containing any extra outfits. I remembered I had a few size 3mo outfits in the car but she was still under 5 pounds but it was all I had. I was so embarrassed. I had the nurse watch her as I ran to get her a change of clothes I knew she'd be swimming in.

So my advice for all you new time moms out there: Come Prepared!!!! You'll never be sorry!
