What does everyone have in their diaper bag?

The views expressed in community are solely the opinions of participants, and do not reflect those of Peanut.

Diapers, wipes, pacifier, teething toys, 2 extra outfits, extra socks, extra bibs, burp cloths, extra receiving blanket, gas drops, mommy stuff(extra nursing pads, Tylenol, inhaler)

Diapers, wipes, extra paci, a couple cans of formula, 2 empty bottles, gas drops, 1 extra outfit, disposable changing pads, bib, burp cloth, nursing cover, paci sanitizing wipes, portable stroller fan.

Diapers, baby wipes, a foldable changing pad, toys, 2 extra outfits, burp cloths, dog poop bags (for dirty diapers), diaper rash spray, a wrap (for baby wearing), toy/pacifier cleaning wipes, and a small blanket.

I EBF, so no formula/bottles/milk - I will bring pumped milk bottles and ice packs if necessary. My LO refuses pacifiers so I don’t have those in there either.

Diapers, Wipes, Extra clothes, burp cloth, back up formula, water and a bottle in case of an emergency, back up medical supplies cause my boy is special needs, hygiene kit (nose sucker, nail clippers, comb, thermometer) sanitizing wipes, changing mat, ibuprofen, snacks and a hair tie!

I have barely anything in my bag...a couple diapers, wipes, an extra outfit just in case, burp cloth, a blanket, a toy or two, and my wallet. Sometimes snacks if we're gonna be out for awhile. I breastfeed so don't need feeding supplies.

Just diapers, wipes and an extra outfit. We make sure to leave the house right after baby’s feeding. We are always back home a little before her next feeding.

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.
