As a new mommy I am slowly morphing
into a lifestyle of convenience where function meets fashion. My husband and I
plan to travel separately due to my sister’s wedding in late August. The thought of traveling by myself with a 6
month old has given me sporadic thoughts of anxiety. I plan to make this
experience a little smoother by ensuring that I have all of my essentials in a
hands-free bag. I suspect a diaper bag backpack would do the trick; because I could toss
it on my back without having to worry about leaving it anywhere and it would
also keep my hands free to care for my little princess.
I wrote down a
list of items I would need to place in my backpack. They include:
§
8-10 diapers
§
Wipes
§
Baby snacks
§
Baby Headphones
§
Breastfeeding cover
§
Small blanket
§
2-3 little toys
§
3 changes of clothes for baby + 1 shirt for me (My baby
likes to spit up)
§
Iphone
§
Ipad or MacBook
§
Travel toiletries (deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste)
§
Baby medications
After
researching, I believe I have found the perfect stylish backpack. The Skip Hop
FORMA Backpack!
§
Price: $70
§
Size: 16x8x14"
§
Colors: Peacock or
Black
§
Pros: Interior pockets, cell phone pocket, holds up to a’15
laptop, changing pad pocket, multipurpose mesh cube for clothing and snacks,
insulated cube for bottles, extra wide dual zip
opening, hangs neatly on a stroller (integrated stroller clips), water
resistant.
§
Cons: The straps are
short, so if you’re tall (5’9 and above) it may be uncomfortable.
§
Where to purchase:
Nordstrom or Amazon.com
Once I place all my belongings in the backpack, I will give
an update on its functionality.
I pray that journey was a smooth one!
