8 Diaper Bag Essentials For Moms On The Go

A well-packed diaper bag can be a real lifesaver, but a poorly packed bag can be a disaster. For you moms on the go, here's a list of eight essential items to keep in your diaper bag at all times.

1. Diapers and Wipes

For moms on the go, there's nothing more important to have than some diapers and wipes. Babies need to be changed as soon as possible, so it's always crucial to make sure you have supplies for changing diapers on hand. Simpleaf for Babies travel wipes, available in one, two and five packs, are great for on-the-go diaper changes, messes, and emergencies.

2. Spare Clothes

No matter how hard you try to keep your baby clean, there's a pretty slim chance that they won't need a change of clothes at some point. Babies are messy, from the way most of their food ends up on them and not in their belly, to the spit up that comes after the meal, a change of clothes is a must.

3. Diaper cream

Similar to diapers, moisturizing diaper cream needs to be applied as soon as you get the chance. While it's not good for your baby to have a rash, and you'll be dealing with a lot more fussing if you don't have the right materials when disaster strikes.

4. Receiving Blanket

A receiving blanket gives you a multi-faceted tool that you'll absolutely love having. Whether you want to give your baby a clean place to play on the ground or bundle them up, these blankets are always a big plus to have on hand.

5. Trash Bag

Did we mention that babies are messy? This means you get to deal with dirty clothes, used burp cloths, and dirty diapers. Make sure you have a trash bag on hand so you can keep this stuff separate from what's clean. You can even keep one dirty clothes bag and one dirty diaper/wipe bag.

6. Extra Cloth

Whether your baby is a drooler, just ate, or makes a little mess, doesn't mean you have to wear it on your own clothes.  Keeping a good burp cloth handy helps you keep yourself clean while making sure your baby is always burped and comfortable. Just a little water and a cloth is a mom on the go's secret weapon!

7. Snacks

Whatever you do, don't forget to bring snacks. In fact, you should probably bring a couple of snacks for yourself just hunger strikes and you don't have time to get something to eat at the moment. But at the very least, bring a couple of treats along for your little one to keep them full and happy.

8. Water

This one is an absolute must for various reasons. For starters, nothing's more frustrating than being parched and dealing with a crying baby. Plus, water has myriad purposes when it comes to caring for your baby on the go, from cleaning up little messes to making formula and more.   Being a mom on the go is a lot of work, but it's easier with proper preparation. The goal is to make sure you can conveniently access everything you need to keep you and your little one happy. Finding individual products that are great for travel—such as the Simpleaf for Babies wipes —is a great way to make sure you have everything you need at all times.
