I need some advice from the seasoned pros! My current bag is the combi urban sling. This has served me very well. I like the messenger style (although I don't always wear it this way), the multiple pockets, and washability. My son is almost 15 months old, and while it works great for just him, I have number two on the way and don't think it will be big enough.
I really like the looks of the skip hop, especially in corduroy. I am thinking of waiting until the new ones come out, since they are supposed ot be having a messener style one....but the price on the babybags co-op is hard to beat. Can anyone who has both compare size? ANd anyone with two or more kids give me an idea of an ideal bag? I am not a minimalist, but I don't carry the kitchen sink either. For older DS - 3-4 dipes, mini wipe container, change of outfit, sippy, 1-2 small toys, bag/container of cheerios. For newborn - 4-6 dipes, change of outfit, clean shirt for me, maybe a few other odds/ends (paci, toy, etc).
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Price IS an issue, but if I can find the perfect bag, I am willing to negotiate my budget constraints.....(no ordering pizza that month ;)
Thanks!
