Hi my name is Valerie with expertvillage.com we are to talk about how to do things with twins from conception to 18 months. Hi my name is Valerie and we are here to talk about how to pack a diaper bag. As you can see this is your standard issue diaper bag it is a regular back pack. When you have twins you find that you don't have the shoulder space for a over the single shoulder diaper bag. So it works good just to have it on your back. Anyways one good thing that you need the most are I guess all these things you need the most. You got your wipes and your diapers. Now a way that I do it is I always say one diaper for one hour so if I'm going out for a couple diapers I will take four diapers because I have two babies. Then you have your toys just whatever you might need to keep them occupied with and whatever clothing that you need that is appropriate to the weather for where you live. Here is cold so we got our gloves and some little fleece jackets and some jeans. Just a full outfit and socks. A book. I have the front part as my food compartment and in this way most of the Jansports backpacks I have been pretty impress with because they have good liners in them so you have some spillage in the food compartment they it doesn't leak through where your clothing is. That is pretty nice. So we just travel with goldfish, and little gummies, snacks, and I use this Playtex sippy cups and what I always do two different sizes so I know what is in what. You know you can put the milk in the big ones and the water in the small ones. What ever however you want to do it. Then I have this little compartment and it is kind of my medicine you know those types of important things like your destine to clean your diaper rash. If you are out and you spike a fever you got some Tylenol. There is a lot of neat compartments in the backpack that people don't think about that you have a little spot for your thermometer and spots for your spoons it is all separate. Even nail clippers when you need them and other than that the front I don't have much in that so as you can see there is quiet a bit that you could fit into a backpack and it is just so handy for walking around with.
You should pack oversized outlet protection such as SafetyCaps, available at SafetyCaps.com, as many of the friends or family members that you visit do not have them in their homes.
