Skip Hop Forma

[We have the Skip Hop Forma bag and love it!](https://www.skiphop.com/skiphop-diaper-bags/V_203100.html?srsltid=AfmBOorjymsbVzD2Avz5FaN6D1kxQ24Uhv59Of9y7zRXMUtj3MnPSfWg) We have a 5yo, 3yo, 18mo and baby number four due in August. We have separate little bags with spare clothes for the two younger kids + diapers/pullups, a giant pack of wipes, aquaphor, sunscreen (probably need some bug spray in there too), tons of snacks, 3 kid water bottles, hand sanitizer, hand lotion, empty folded grocery ba...

Congrats on baby #2! Honestly, after trying a bunch, I went with a backpack-style diaper bag and haven't looked back, it's so much easier when you're wrangling two little ones. I got a Skip Hop Forma and it's legit held up for years, still looks new even after being dragged everywhere. 

I like the Skip Hop diaper bag. Had another one before it, and the Skip Hop is an upgrade in organization and comfort.

I totally get it—I was in the same boat. I ended up going with a backpack-style one from Skip Hop and it's held up great without feeling too "baby bag" if that makes sense.

Don't overthink it too much, but know your needs will keep changing. Also it's contextual—do you live in a city or are you driving everywhere. On trips I pack differently (pouches in a bigger bag or dedicated weekender type bag that is easy to fit under seat if they have their own seat on a flight).

I have an itzy ritzy backpack and a skip hop backpack. IR: love that it has a million pockets. Like others have said, I can reach without looking and grab exactly what I need. A little on the heavy side. Insulted side pockets and back zipper compartment for changing pad. The stroller strap clips are SUPER easy to attach in a second. The styles feel more finished and in line with my personal style (I always liked a good purse!) SH: very lightweight. Nylon, so good for outdoor activities. Not m...

Second this. We've had ours a couple years and it's held up way better than our skip hop diaper bag. Lots of good colors, has a lot of nice pockets.

The Dagne Dover dupe from Amazon. I LOVE it. I couldn't fathom spending the actual amount on a real one and I'm glad I went for the dupe. We got the skip hop one at our baby shower and used it but it was not comfortable for me personally or big enough. We use that as our toddler daycare bag now because I don't care how messed up it gets.

My skip hop bag broke within a week. I used my REI backpack for 2 babies and it was great.
