Top 5 Baby Diaper Bags

Top 5 Baby Diaper Bags

I’m under 30 years old and  I can't remember any of the mothers having nice diaper bags at any time in my life until the last couple years. Diaper bags with Winnie the Pooh or Mickey Mouse on them are a thing of the past. The new craze which I was just introduced to about 4 years ago is designer diaper bags, that take toting those diapers and wipes to a whole new level. The top 5 most desirable diaper bags are new breed of bag for the stylish moms.

 

Many companies have come out of the wood work in the past 5 years making caring a certain diaper bag very fashion forward and sometimes even status symbol for what bag you are carrying. Companies such as Petunia Pickle Bottom, Fleurville, OiOi and even designers like Gucci and Kate Spade have created beautiful diaper bags for moms to feel like they are carrying a bag for themselves not just their baby. Some bags don't even look like a diaper bag.

 

The top five diaper bags on the market right now are as follows, Petunia Pickle Bottom, Skip Hop, Fleurville, Reese Li and OiOi. Keeping that in mind most people get the Petunia Bags because if you are keeping up with the Jones that what you do. But it’s good to examine what bags are made of and what kind of functionality they have too.

It’s very interesting to see what kinds of materials some companies use to make certain diaper bags. Such materials as silk have been used to make gorgeous diaper bags, but the impracticality of this delicate material is what makes purchasing one of these nicer bags a tough decision. For some moms they will have their nicer bag and then a more practical bag such as a skip Skip Hop bag that can be strapped on to a stroller and has a lot more durability than some of the fancier bags.

 

There are also many lines now that carry diaper bags for the dads too. It’s important for the dad to feel included and most dads don't want to carry a frilly pink diaper bag around. So many companies have incorporated a camo design into their line of bags so that the dads can have a bag too. The top 5 diaper bags for dads are: BOB Diaper Bag, Skip Hop,  Diaper Dudes, Marshall and JJ Cole.

 

It may seem impractical to have potentially 3 diaper bags just for one family. But remember it is a bag you will use every day while your child is a baby. Once your baby gets a bit older you may not feel the need to carry around as much stuff so you could carry one of the diaper and wipes "pods" that have been created to just put these few items in your normal purse. This will change again once you decide to have second child and incorporate an even bigger diaper bag into the mix. There are some companies that offer a double size diaper bag that is made to hang from a double sized stroller and is appropriate for someone having twins or someone with two small children.

 

As you can see there are so many options in the world of diaper bags. It can be a hard choice to make, but in the end it’s an important choice to make. Make sure you choose a bag that fits your needs but you will also be willing to walk around with and feel proud to carry. It’s ok to pamper yourself with a nice diaper bag or better yet, register for a really nice bag for your baby shower and it’s a great gift that a bunch of people can go together on.
