    Hi All,
    I am currently pregnant with twins and I have a 21 month old daughter who will be 2 around the time the babies arrive. Just wanting to ask the "veteran" twin & toddler moms what type of bag you like to use for all 3 kiddos.
    Thanks,
    Kristy

    Hands down the Skip Hop Duo Double Deluxe!!!!! Worth every penny.
    I tried 3 others before I caved in :)

    AGREED! SKDDD is the way to go. You can sometimes find them for sale on Amazon, that's where I got mine.

    I just bought a custom one on Etsy from Pink Punk Boutique, and think it would be perfect for twins! This is mine, but the coolest thing is you can send her a msg and tell her what you're wanting, colors you like, etc. She was fabulous to work with, the bag is so well made, with tons of room and lots of pockets inside. Honestly, it might be a tad big for just this one baby I'm having this time, but perfect for 2! I love the contrasting fabrics she chose for inside, too. She doesn't have diaper bags listed right now, but just send her a "conversation" and she'll get right back to you.

    I have a Skip Hop Duo Double too. It was great for the first six months, especially any time I needed to take all four boys somewhere. I loved the extra room for that extra set of diapers or an extra sippy or even to store books that my oldest might have brought along. But, they're 18 months old now I can honestly tell you that I haven't used it in maybe 8-10 months. It's just sitting there. I might use it for travel later on this year, but as a diaper bag I just don't need it anymore. However, I do use the regular Skip Hop Duo for them now. The bag itself is wonderfully made and great quality, so even if you didn't want something quite so big, I'd definitely recommend the brand. :)

    SKIP HOP DOUBLE DUO!! It is the best thing EVER! It's big, but I rarely carry it since it hooks onto ALL of my strollers! Today DH took the boys home so I could grocery shop by myself and I didn't have any problem toting it around. It's also great for amusement parks. I could fit up to 8 bottles in it. That's what sold me! DH does triathlons so some days I had to carry ALL of our food with us. Not a problem!

    I broke down and got the SHDD after trying 2 other ones. It has enough room for my entire nursery but it's great. I do have a smaller bag that I take when I'm just with one twin because the SHDD is massive!

    Guess I'd the odd one here!! I love my $20 backpack from Wal-Mart!!! :cool: It holds everything I could need and I like having a backpack so that my arms are free to carry them and not worry about a bag falling off my shoulder and hitting them in the face!

    Good luck!!

    no jen, you are the weird one here. I found a really cute pink flamingo bag that was huge at the gift shop of the hospital I worked at the time. It was cute!!! The bag was pink with the same thing on both sides, except for the sequins on one side! It held everything I needed. Otherwise, I just grabbed whatever I could put my stuff in!!!

    I love my LLbean bags...I have a messenger bag that was $24...(it was super comfortable to carry, had many pockets and held EVERYTHING) I like to be prepared...haha

    I recently wanted a change and was missing my back packs...so I bought an LLBean back pack...hummed and haahed about it because it was $60, but soooo worth the money, it's really durable has TONS of room and super light to carry.

    Dielle, thanks for sharing info on your bag...I love it...I checked out the website and will contact them with a custom order...what great products! and reasonalby priced...I love my bags!!

    I love the Ju-Ju-Be Packabe. I can get tons of stuff in it and it fits right over the handle of my SBS. Works great as a backpack as well for plane trips.
