With the birth of my third son I like to think that I’ve perfected the contents of my diaper bag. Of course, that’s not exactly true. My first born was known to have “explosive poo” and I changed his clothes more than three times a day (I wish I was joking).\u00a0 This was never the case with my second, so I needed to pack less for him but I also needed to think about the needs of his big brother (snacks, toys and what not).\u00a0 For my current outings, I have to pack for my newborn and for my two older boys.\u00a0 No matter whether we’re 1 KM or 300 KM away from home,\u00a0I feel that\u00a0I must be prepared for anything…. boredom, hunger, thirst, change of diapers \/ clothes, and also make sure I have room for my own needs.\u00a0 While I can’t guarantee that I’ll always be 100% prepared for anything that comes my way when I’m out of the house, I always try my best.\u00a0 Here’s a great list put together by\u00a0<\/span>Disney Baby<\/a>\u00a0that pretty much covers the basics. \u00a0What else would you add to this diaper bag essentials list?<\/span><\/p>\n

Diaper Bag Essentials<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

1)\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Diapers, diapers and more diapers<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>This may seem like a no-brainer, but it\u2019s important to keep plenty of diapers on hand. Bring one for every hour you\u2019ll be out, plus one more \u2013 you don\u2019t want to get caught without!\"Disney<\/a><\/p>\n

2)\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Don\u2019t be without wipes<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Keep some wipes in a plastic bag, or get a set in handy travel size. These are great for keeping baby clean post changing and are useful for wiping down sticky fingers and faces, dirty surfaces and changing pads as well.<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Diaper Rash Cream<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Pick up a small tube and keep it ready at hand. You never know when diaper rash could develop, and you don\u2019t want your baby to be uncomfortable when you\u2019re nowhere near home!<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Pack a changing pad<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Many diaper bags, including this Mickey Mouse<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>one, come with changing pads inside. Changing pads make dealing with diapers a clean and comfortable experience, especially when there isn\u2019t a changing table available.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>5)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Extra clothing<\/strong><\/p>\n

No matter how prepared you are, accidents can happen. When you\u2019re on the move with a baby, any number of things could necessitate a wardrobe change. Disney Baby<\/a> has plenty of adorable Layette sets, available at all major retail locations \u2013 check out these super cute body suits<\/strong><\/a> for inspiration! They will fit neatly in your bag, so your baby can stay stylish, even on the run.\"Disney<\/a><\/p>\n

6)\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Bring a selection of snacks<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>If your baby is bottle feeding, keep some milk ready at hand. These Mickey bottles<\/strong><\/a> are a great option. If your baby is older, take some snacks in a reusable container and fill a learner cup<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>with water or juice. Most importantly: don\u2019t forget to throw in a snack for yourself, so you and baby can have a treat together!\"disney<\/a><\/p>\n

7)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Carry creature comforts<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pack some pacifiers<\/strong><\/a> to help keep your baby calm. Blankets, like these Peek-a-Boo Pooh<\/strong><\/a> ones, are also great to have on hand. Use them as burp cloths, for mopping up messes or just to keep your little one cozy and warm.\"disney<\/a><\/p>\n

8)\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Tons of toys<\/strong><\/p>\n

Keep baby occupied while you\u2019re out and about with board books<\/strong><\/a>, rattles<\/strong><\/a> and other toys. Baby will have fun and you\u2019ll be able to get your errands done.<\/p>\n

Disney Baby<\/a> has a great selection of diaper bags to choose from, featuring all of your favourite characters: Mickey<\/strong><\/a> and Minnie<\/strong><\/a>, Winnie the Pooh<\/strong><\/a> \u2013 even Tinkerbell<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
