Top 10 Diaper Bag Essentials

Whether you are new parents or seasoned parents having the most useful baby items in your diaper bag is essential.  Next time you’re headed out with your baby grab these 10 essential items and you’ll be set!  Here are our top 10 items to not leave home without.

  1. Changing pads - having the ability to change your baby’s diaper at any given situation is essential.  You can find disposable changing pads or purchase a changing mat that wipes clean and stores easily in the diaper bag.
  2. Diapers - It’s a good idea to bring at least one diaper for every hour you’ll be out, plus a few extras just to be sale.  Especially in those early months. 
  3. Wipes - You will never carry too many wipes.  You will find that they will be your go to must have.  Perfect for diaper changes, gooey hands and wiping surfaces clean that he baby will come in contact with.
  4. Hand Sanitizer - When you are away from areas to wash your hands this is essential to keep on hand.  Also, when you are taking the new baby out on his first visits it’s a great idea to have for others to use prior to handling the baby.
  5. Plastic bags - Disposing of soiled diapers in a stress free and convenient way is important.  I found that the Munchkin Arm & Hammer Disposable bags worked great.  Great when on trips in the car.
  6. Bottles/Sippy Cups - Carry enough formula or expressed breast milk for the amount of time you will be away.  Newborns east at least every 2-3 hours. 
  7. Blanket - Multi-Functional essential used for nursing, changing, shading, burping, shopping, dining and much more.  A must have item to keep on hand at any given moment.
  8. Extra Set of Clothes - You just never know when you will need extra baby clothes.  Newborns tend to go through several sets throughout the day.  Better off safe that sorry.
  9. Sunscreen/Hat - Protecting infants from the sun is crucial.  Their delicate skin is prone to burns easily and you must take precautions.  Always carry sunscreen and an infant hat to protect their scalp from burning.
  10. Emergency Information - Being prepared for any emergency situation is important.  Keep phone numbers of your family doctor and health insurance provider on you at all times.  Here is an emergency contact sheet to fill out and keep safely in the diaper bag.
