    Diaper Bag - Do I need to give up my handbag?!

    Ladies ..

    I've just started researching which diaper bag will be the most appropriate for me.
    I realise this will sounds like a silly question, but here it goes - Question is....

    Do I need to give up my handbag?? Seems kind of silly carrying around 2 bags??

    I still use both, for me I would find it hard using the one bag. If I want to pop out to the shops etc by myself I don't want to carry a bag that looks like a nappy bag and I also don't want to carry around all the things I need if I am out by myself, just have to think what will work best for you

    You can keep you handbags for when you are out on your own and there are plenty of nappy bags that just look like oversized handbags. I have a Storksak Julie which I don't think looks like a nappy bag at all, I love it

    I have my eye on the Storksak Elizabeth haha I am nappy bag obsessed!

    I have 3 bags these days.

    My regular handbag for use when I'm at work or for rare times that my son is in daycare & I'm out and about without him.

    Daycare bag - this is the original nappy bag I bought - decent size which can fit lots of nappies, changes of clothes, bottles etc in it.

    Small nappy bag - for my days off & weekends. I only was able to start using this when my son got older & didn't need to cart as many changes & bottles etc. I put my purse in it & off we go. It hangs off the stroller & off we go.

    I have the storksak Julie as well, I love it! So nice to have a nappy bag that doesnt look like a nappy bag. It comes with a thermo-insulated bottle holder and a padded changing mat.

    Storksak have some great sales, so worth keeping an eye out for them! I picked mine up for $175 in their last sale online.

    I still have my regular handbag, if I need to go somewhere without bubs.. but that is rare anyway.
