The baby bag!

When looking for a baby bag, compartments and sizes are key! You want a bag with lots of different areas to place your bottles, change of clothes, nappies, snacks, etc. A bag that is too small can result in the whole thing spilling over the shopping centre floor as you hunt for the dummy to calm the screaming baby! And on the other hand, too big bags can lead to some unpleasant back pain as you manage to juggle bubs and your belongings through to the park to catch up with your new mum's group! Investing in the perfect size multi-compartment is key and now made easy with our top picks below!
