Changing bags?

[purple01]

Hello! I was just wondering what changing bag everyone has bought/is going to get? I had a plain grey mothercare one for my son, which did the job and had plenty of space, but just can't decide which one to get this time round. We are expecting a girl, so could get something a bit more fancy this time, but then I guess OH wouldn't want to take out a pink/girly changing bag if he was taking little one out on his own

Would be good to know what everyone else has chosen?

I'm planning on getting the JuJuBe Be All diaper bag.

It's a little on the expensive side ($140), but it has so many compartments and is well organized! I'm planning on cloth diapering, too and was looking for a bag that wasn't bulk but had lots of storage space.

I found searching YouTube for review and demo videos was really helpful in narrowing down which bag I wanted.

Edit: I just went on their website and the same bag is now $120! Every dollar helps

I bought a Lin and Leo leather changing bag when I had my daughter. I don't like carrying round a changing bag that is cheap / plasticky, nor am I into the fancy ones with cupcakes on them - pretty for someone else, but just not my style. It was the one indulgent thing I bought, as I didn't splurge on the trendiest pram etc like some people do, so that's how I was able to justify the price to myself. I still love it, and will keep using it with this one too. Plenty of room, with proper pockets for bottles etc, but looks like a nice leather bag rather than a changing bag. Plus hubby will happily carry it too.

I have a Yummy Mummy 'lovebirds' one. I had a plain one before DD was born but got that one for my birthday a couple of months after she was born. I love it I'll be getting it out again this time.

I also have a jujube bag.. The ' be spicy' style and its awesome. I want to get another one the ' be prepared' one now because its supposedly really big, now that this will be number two for me. They are great bags

I'm planning on just using my normal bag, it's a purple jimmy choo (present from my sister). It's huge, and will take cloth nappies and the stuff for my dog so I figure I should prob make the must of it, I'm just gonna get a travel changing mat and add that . Must of the changing bags I've found really aren't my style so figure I'd use one and make sure it does the job.

With my son we had a big ugly unisex one because me and DH shared it but this time I will be using it so am thinking about a pink lining bag. I'm not 100% sure yet though.

There's someone on eBay that makes unique changing bags to order. They aren't that expensive (£30-35) and are one of a kind you can even design it. She had ready made ones too. I have a liberty print one in turquoise and lilac for my boy. I love it.

I was going to buy a lin and leo changing bag but heard it is very heavy and not a practical changing bag but nice leather bag - is this true?

I've bought one of the pacapod's. I like that they look like a normal handbag and it has loads of compartments and room:

I really like mine. It's probably bigger than some bags, but I've found it takes that amount of room for all the stuff you have to carry, from bottles/powder dispensers/spare clothes etc when they are little, to toys/snacks/pyjamas now that she is older. I did take the pockets off one side by unstitching them as I found they took up too much space from the main pocket though.

JJ Cole Diaper Tote bag. Don't have a giant purse I could fit all my cloth diapering stuff into and it got great reviews for such a nice price, so I had to get it!

Bought our changing bag at the baby show yesterday from melobaby. Nice practical gender neutral bags and a totally amazing changing wallet - holds 3/4 nappies, wipes, a change of clothes etc and becomes a changing mat. Great if you are only popping out for a couple of hours and don't wanna lug the whole bag. Genius and reasonably priced - we paid £65 for both.
