What goes in your changing bag?
in Baby
Hi girls,
I'm not due until Aug but trying to be organised and make sure I have plenty of things in especially as OH and I both have seperate changing bags!
I'm aware that nappies, bum cream, wet wipes, nappy sacks, bottles, change of clothes will have to go in but what else do you all put in you couldn't live without?
Thanks in advance!

ps - my hot tip would be to ALWAYS have your bag packed so that the second little one is quiet you can escape from the house at lightening speed. I found in the early days that by the time I'd packed the bag she was hungry, needed a nappy change etc etc........!
Carton of formula
2 bottles and 2 powdered feeds measured out ready to mix
Change of clothes for lo
4 nappies
Nappy sacks
Wet Wipes
Scissors (to open the carton!)
Muslin
Changing mat
Jacket for lo in case dropped cooler
I guess as lo gets older I'll probably add things like teething gel, calpol, suncream etc but at the moment she's too young for these things.
