What is the smallest diaper bag you've used that you can recommend? All I need to bring out these days is a change of clothes, snack, sippy and cell phone. Suggestions?

I just use a bigger purse now and not a fully diaper bag.

I realized after I posted that I should have clarified that I do realize I could just use a regular bag at this point but I am kind of a diaper bag geek and feel like doing some online window shopping!

LE little tripper is our compact one that DH will carry when he needs to.

Overland Donner. Not exactly a diaper bag, but that is how I use it. Also, mine is several years old and I think they have changed the material.

I have three Ju-Ju-Be Lights, and I love love love them!! I use Be Quicks in them for clothes/diapers/etc and a Be Mine for my wallet, and they are awesome. I figure I'll get lots of use out of them even once I'm done carrying kid stuff.

One of the smaller LeSportSacs. Can't get much lighter than those.

The freebie from the hospital would be perfect for you. The one I got is a black sling bag and it's very light.

Another vote for the JJB BeLight. Love mine.

I'm looking into the LeSportsac bags right now, but the one I'm wanting to get wouldn't hold a sippy or diapers.

Sounds like all you need is a saddle bag to go on your stroller!

Love my saddlebags, but no shoulder strap, FYI. Also may be too small for a change of clothes, plus diaper and wipes.

Nope, it's not. I have had a change of clothes (actually 2 changes - one for my 1yr old and 1 for my 5 year old), a wipes case, 3 size 3 diapers, and hand sanitizer in there. Those were in the main pockets. That doesn't even include what could go in the zippered pocket - phone, keys, etc.

When we were at Disney - this is what I used to carry the extra change of clothes for the girls + ponchos for the whole family.

Wow, you must be a better packer than I am! I keep one of mine on the stroller with a cloth diaper (to wipe up drool/spills), two diapers, a small pack of wipes and a knot it bag dispenser and it seems pretty full to me.

:yeahthat:

A small LeSportSac or even a small Kipling will be your lightest option.

For a dedicated diaper bag (but not as lightweight), I would choose either the LE LT or the Overland Donner (though I've found the workmanship of the Donner lacking).

So many great suggestions, thank you!

This is what I am thinking. I love them both! The small juju just doesn't have enough pockets to satisfy me. These both seem very organized.

My vote is also for the be light. I love all the ways I can wear it and how super light it is.

I dont know anything about JuJuBe's, but I have the LE Little Tripper and I really love it. I keep a couple diapers and some wipes in there on a regular basis, and generally throw in a few snacks and a sippy (in the side pocket) when I run out the door. Sometimes a change of clothes too. It is so light. And fits more than you would think, btw. So it also works well for times that you need to pack a little more.

I don't know what the other bags mentioned look like, but since you mentioned a sippy cup, I think a side pocket is a big plus so you dont have to worry about leaks. And you cant beat the quality and price of the Little Tripper! I've had mine for about a year (and I use it regularly) and it still looks brand new. Gee, I feel like an infomercial here! LOL.
