changing bag help...opinions please

[zamzam]

I have had sooo much trouble finding a nice but affordable changing bag...with my previous pregnancy the bag came with the pushchair so no problems there but this time around no bag..and i didnt realise how much they were!! lol. anyway... this morning i went in a little baby shop, the owner was such a lovely helpful lady...my pram is royal blue, so she showed me one which is baby blue with ribbons and in different patterns, with loops that go over the handle...nearly 40 euros..another was navy blue, very plain, a big strap or u can make it smaller too...the final one was white background with royal blue and different shades of green shapes all over it.... it can go in the washing machine and as its the last one in the shop she was going to sell it for 20 euros! bargain..no?! which do u think sounds the best... im quite a colourful person so the last one is very appealing to me, but just worried if it will go well enough with the pram, and if the white will get grubby quickly(although it can go straight in the washing machine) the others maybe a bit boring for my taste... any opinions please.....

I'd go for the colourful cheaper one that can go in the washing machine for sure x

I would buy a handbag instead, a tote. Thats my plan, anyways.

I just purchased a Jeep Back pack style. It hooks on to the stroller and hubby won't object to carrying it around!

I got one especially for my husband last time, was black and actually matched our travel system. I got myself a yummy mummy one. He never used his one, not once!! Lol.

No only ONE as I am not keeping two stocked. I wanted a beautiful Coach one but this one will be our one and only shared one.

I adore my Coach and the way I justify it is its my handbag for the next x amount of years! I have carried it everywhere for the last 23 months and will continue with the next baby! So potentially 4-5 years in total! Also if I have to carry one that long I'd like to at least like it!!

It's not a cost thing it's the fact that I alone would have to keep 2 bags fully stocked as my husband is completely clueless on how to plan ahead! L

I find that any type of good sized satchel is perfect as a changing bag! I bought myself a cheap red spotty satchel and thought that was perfect! lots of compartments, but OH bought me a lovely Cath Kidston changing bag for xmas, so ill probably put my red one up for sale sometime

Your husband won't carry the Coach? I have a nice blue messenger style one currently and hubby has no issue carrying it. Maybe see if there is a style he likes? Ju Ju Be also makes really nice bags. A few different styles in tons of prints.
