20 Best Hospital Bags For Mom (2023 Updated)

We have used this diaper backpack for a year now as first time parents, and while it has held up fantastically in quality and durability, it lacks functionality in a few ways. For example, the 2 straps that hang down in the front serve no purpose and only get in the way when you try to get into the lower front pocket.

And getting into the bag’s main compartment is a 2-step process. 1. Lift the flap and 2. unzip. What a pain! Especially when you only have one free hand as parents often do when out and about with the baby.

Besides, anything you put back there will make the bag bulge and feel lumpy on your back instead of laying flat, which makes it even bulkier than it already is. Speaking of which‚. This diaper bag is quite a large one, which can be a good thing if you have multiples or more than one child in diapers, etc.

But it can make the bag difficult to carry and take some places. Pros:-durable quality material-LOTS of interior & exterior pockets (int. pockets good for: small toys, bottles, pacifiers, creams, snacks, medicine, mommy’s misc.

purse stuff; ext. pockets good for: wallet, phone, keys, water bottle/sippy, wipes, non-bulky items)-shopping cart/stroller hooks-comfortable shoulder strapsCons:-several pockets and compartments are difficult to access easily-large & bulky.

Overall a good find for the price! But we will probably upgrade for our next child.

We absolutely love this bag. The only problem with it is that the bottle pockets don’t fit comotomo bottles very well. They can be squeezed in, but all three of the pockets on our original bag now have ripped linings because it’s so tight.

For baby #2, I’ve been searching and searching, and I can’t find a replacement bag I like as much as this one. (I swear, it’s a Mary Poppins bag that seems to fit an endless amount of things!!) So, I’ve just bought another one.

This time, I’m going to make a slight modification to change the three bottle pockets to 2, so our bottles will fit more easily. This bag is so great that it’s worth that effort. For the makers, please consider adding just a centimeter more of fabric to each pocket, so the bigger bottles can fully fit.

There’s enough room width-wise for them, the pockets just need to be a tiny bit deeper.

Huge fan of this diaper bag! First off, the overall look is pretty sleek goes with everything of you’re one to care about it clashing with your style (we got the dark gray/cream colored). I love the big mouth opening–perfect for fitting things in fishing things out with ease.

Also, if anything is stuck too far at the bottom, there’s an opening in the back so you can get to it that has a mesh zippered pocket. Lots lots of pockets. I believe there’s even a stash pocket behind the straps for your phone or money so you can’t be easily pickpocketed.

Two lined bottle pockets to keep your liquids how you want them. I couldn’t ask for a better diaper bag honestly. Backpack straps, yet handles like a purse also. So easy to carry around, especially when carting around a car seat.

Would definitely recommend to any mamas, especially first timers! #mommusthaves.

This diaper bag holds up well, and can hold everything I need. I even used it as my hospital bag when I went into labor. The pockets are great sizes, the front pocket keeps bottles cool (or warm, depending on the starting temperature), and the side pockets can hold adult sized water bottles as well.

Easy to clean. Definitely worth the price.

Love this diaper bag! It’s functional – lots of different pockets so everything can be nicely organized. Insulated pockets in the front for baby bottles is a nice touch. Also like the side pockets for adult water bottles! Comes in a variety of colors, stylish and fun.

I love the size. Theres plenty of room for everything we need. The inside pockets are big enough to hold a full package of wipes. The interior is roomy enough for diapers, blankets, several changes of clothes and small toys.

The included changing pad is a great addition. The outside pockets hold a couple of water bottles a piece. The zippered front pocket has divided compartments for 3 bottles with an insulated material on the inside.

The color is beautiful and the ease of using the backpack is great. The snap together handle makes the bag easy to grab and carry when not being worn as a backpack. I am very pleased with the design and the quality of the product.

The material seems to be easy to wipe down and keep clean. Im very happy with my purchase.

I love this bag. Specious, big and good quality. Worth the price.

High quality, practical, thermal bottle holder and wide opening so you can easily find all of your belongings.

big and spacious

This bag is wonderful!! I don’t have babies. I bought it for myself because I like that diaper bags have many compartments. I bought this one in particular I liked the handles on the top and the backpack straps.

The quality of this bag for my purposes is great. It is sewn together very well and is very thick. Unlike a standard backpack. It is insulated. So I can put my water bottle inside an internal pocket to aid in in keeping it cool.

I also can put my makeup in the many compartments on the inside and outer zipper compartment. Also my jewelry doesn’t need a separate bag. The gold accents are dressy and gives it a simple but attractive asthethic.

It’s not so feminine that my husband can also use it.

i read the reviews and decided to go ahead and give it a try. I’m not disappointed at all! the bag has more than enough room for everything i need for my toddler, myself, and even fits our emergency kits and i still have room! i love it! it’s not bulky either.

i bought this to upgrade from another backpack bag. that one, i could feel things through the bag and they would often shift and be poking my back. this diaper bag, i have yet to feel any of that! it’s fantastic! mine is currently holding 10+ diapers, 2 packs of wipes, 2-3 changes of clothes for my toddler, a first aid kit, my personal belongings, and a men’s travel bag (for personal items) that’s filled with medication and other such things incase they are needed.

the fact that i still have room for other things just makes me happy. i don’t have to dig and reorganize my bag every time i get something out. i highly recommend this bag!.

This is an amazing bag. It is very large like a suitcase with handles. It really fits a ton of baby stuff. I fit enough for at least a week and a half of baby clothes (including multiple changes a day if necessary).

Very impressed. I would recommend this bag to anyone traveling with a baby.

Bag is good size for someone with multiple kids and travel needs, but quality is very poor. Cheap zipper, cheap material and not at all what we expected.

I haven?t even got a chance to use my bag I just took it out the box n it?s already tearing up it?s not made outta good material I had to get a refund

Vera is not kidding, this is the ultimate diaper bag. The backpacks I’ve purchased have barely any room, plus I needed something versatile – this is definitely it. The drop on the shoulder strap is perfect, not short like a lot of these other bags, and actually stays on your shoulder! The performance twill material makes me feel expensive.

The jet black color is so so beautiful – as beautiful as black can be I suppose. The crossbody strap will actually let you wear it across your body! Pockets galore both inside and out – I have space for my things, toddler things, and baby things without it being so bulky.

Only con is the stroller strap. You have to hook it onto itself instead of onto another mental link or something. But I hardly ever store my diaper bag like that anyway. Conclusion: get the bag, you won’t regret it.

I am a new mom and finding a diaper bag that is functional and cute has been a challenge! I’ve tried backpacks, and other styles in many different brands and hated them! This tote style bag is amazing! It has so many pockets and is functional yet fashionable!! I am able to easily grab what I need, which as a new mom is an invaluable luxury! I love the material of the bag and the wet bag and changing pad that come with it are great! It fits everything that I need and more!! If you are looking for a diaper bag, look no further b/c this one is perfect!.

Ok I’m not going to lie to you, I don’t have kids, but I lug a lot of stuff to work. This bag is amazing for all the things I need for work, and looks good too. It’s big enough to fit my laptop, and even keep my cold brew cold with the insulated side pockets.

The straps are also super comfy so my shoulder doesn’t hurt and the perfect length for grabbing things while I am walking to my car. When I do have kids I might just have to get another one because I like it so much!.

Lovely spacious changing bag! Fits all the necessities including change of clothes for baby, swaddle, changing essentials and bottles. Would purchase more from Cam Cam. Quality is great!

So easy to use, very good communication about order and item was lovely and great quality. Would definitely buy from here again!

I’ve only used the bag a handful of times and it’s clear the quality is horrible. My baby was born April 2021, used it for her at the hospital then stored for 6 months because we didn’t need a bag this large.

I’m a stay at home mom so I only ever leave the house about once a week for shopping or appointments so it’s not like I’m packing this bag daily and taking her to daycare or anything, my bag is in exceptional condition so I wasn’t expecting to have problems with it so soon after using it.

Unfortunately the tassel fell of on my zipper making it more difficult to close the bag. My bag wasn’t even overly packed when it broke either, I was simply closing and a regular zipping motion is all it took to tear the tassel off of the zipper which is a huge bummer.

When I reached out for help with this considering the bag is in great condition, I was told they can’t do anything and I should buy a tassel off Amazon to replace the broken piece instead. That’s super frustrating considering I spent so much money on the diaper bag already so having to buy parts for pieces of the bag that are defective is extremely frustrating.

Only after I voiced my frustration I was offered a 10 store credit for future purchases which I declined since I will not be purchasing from freshly picked again. I’m currently expecting my third baby and buying from Little BaeBae or Fawn Design instead.

I am a mom, but my son is almost 16, so I don’t need a “diaper bag” anymore, but these bags are AMAZING. I found Freshly Picked years ago in a local store called, Rustic Market & OMG life changing. At the time I was switching from my normal BIG Louis Vuitton that fit perfectly for all things real estate & life, but when I went to LV to get a backpack, well.

I was NOT impressed. I was walking Rustic Market, that has a baby section & I saw the cutest backpack. It was gray & after grabbing it, seeing all the pockets inside & the ability to hold my Ipad, my Mac, my.

makeup bag & everything I could ever need, I fell in LOVE! I have not looked back. I now own six of these bags, all different colors & you will rarely see me with any other bag, even my LV’s!!! Freshly Picked is for every women, not just moms.

This Classic Ebony bag is the PERFECT bag to take on a listing appointment or to a closing. I can fit so much, it is sturdy, beautiful & yes, even sexy, which seems wild for a backpack, but it is so true! I feel so strongly about these bags & this company.

They make incredible products. FRESHLY PICKED YOU ARE AMAZING!!!.

I am a curvy girl and I always felt like back packs just weren’t a good choice for me plus my shoulders refuse to hold anything for me. However, I splurged and got this bag and I absolutely love it! I have the Disney mini leopard backpack and the shoulder straps seem far away from each other so it always feels like the straps are falling.

This bag’s straps are sewn closer together for a much secure comfortable fit. The straps are padded nicely and I love all the pockets it has. I have a 10 month old and a 3 year old and this bag is perfect for carrying everything they need.

It isn’t bulky but it’s big enough that I don’t look like a whale wearing a tiny jansport backpack from the 2000’s. Oh, and the changing pad is much larger than other ones I’ve received in diaper bags.

Which is great because obviously babies don’t stay newborn size forever. So, just buy it.

Great everyday bag. It’s lovely material and well enough made to take a lot of abuse. Don’t tell anybody it’s marketed as a diaper bag (I don’t have kids) and they will never know. I’m on a work trip this week and pulled out the insert, tossed it in my checked bag, then fit two laptops in sleeves in the bag, zipped it up, and made it under the 7kg weight limit for carry on.

For me, the zipper is key for security and for not dumping things out when I toss it in the car. It was a big reason I bought this bag over others and it did not disappoint. I found the company via Wirecutter and delivery and quality of bag lived up to the review.

A lot of thought has gone into this bag, it truly is a combination of all the best bits from every other changing bag I’ve owned while being smart and stylish too (it doesn’t scream changing bag at all).

For starters it has zips instead of Velcro, lovely copper ones at that. The number of times I’ve woken a sleeping baby with a bag that has Velcro openings! I’ve had backpack and shoulder bags, but this is both and the mechanism is so clever that you don’t have to do anything to switch between modes.

Pockets, pockets, pockets! So many well placed and good sized internal pockets for things like bottles, wipes, creams and the free tote bag that’s included. Plus there’s one large zip pocket to keep things like your purse and keys safe.

The two external pockets have a lovely touch of adjustable straps to ensure your water bottle or whatever is secure. Even the changing mat has two pockets to tuck nappies and wipes into and a carry handle so you can whip it out and take your baby for a nappy change without taking the whole bag with you.

I love the detachable buggy clips that adjust to fit on any buggy. So much better than looping a bag strap over the handles and having it bang into your legs or the wheels! The cool bag and changing mat fit in perfectly with room for a change of clothes too.

The cool bag has an elastic loop on the inside to keep your bottle upright and space for extra food or drink as well as having an additional Velcro strap next to the handle so it can be looped onto the bag or buggy separately.

It really is a beautiful looking bag with great features, it’s even water resistant! If only I’d had this bag all along.

I’ve not had chance to use this yet as baby is yet to arrive, but truly is a really lovely changing bag. I was originally drawn to it as it co ordinates with my pram, but it’s a really generous size without being too big and bulky.

The material is a lovely scuba material which will be easy to keep clean. There are plenty of internal pockets. I love the matching insulated bag that comes included. It does take up quite a bit of room in the changing bag so I’m likely to keep that separate either in the pram basket or on the pram handle as the handle has Velcro.

Having had a few changing bags with my first daughter, I much prefer this one already.

This bag is definitely of a really high quality and finish. I love the look of it – it’s classic and practical. It’s also very versatile. I like that it can be used as both a backpack and a handbag. I’d say I have probably used it more as a handbag than back pack but it’s nice to have the choice.

As a handbag/ bag siting over the handles of the buggy, it looks great. As a backpack the straps are a bit thin and not padded so if it happens to be heavy then it’s not as comfortable. In terms of practicality it’s fantastic.

The pockets are the perfect size for separating and organising baby wipes, nappies and spare clothes. I love the side pockets too because they have a draw string feature which means you can adjust it to make sure smaller items won’t fall out.

It does come with buggy clips which have a velcro fastening but I found that even with a reasonable weight in the bag they just came off so it was easier to put the whole strap over the buggy. Overall I feel like this is a really good quality bag, practical, stylish and made of lovey material that’s waterproof which is a huge bonus! Given 4 stars because as a backpack I feel it could be slightly more comfortable.

Good size and features. I like that the roll top can be fully zippered and that the should straps can unhook and wrap around a stroller or chair for safety when travelling. I purchased both the blue and mustard (kept blue) and glad to say the accent color is more grey than white as it appears in the picture.

I was afraid it was white and therefore would show wear easier. The small top loop is a canvas rope type material and seems more fashion than function. I wish the side elastics (for bottles) were full pockets instead, that there was another access point to the main compartment (like on the side or through the front zipper pocket), and that the bottom had feet to keep off ground.

Overall it looks to be made well and I am looking forward to using it once we can get out again (pandemic blues!).

I loooooved the design of this diaper bag, with the pocket locations and separate diaper pocket. But the construction is just so poor. We just use our bag for day-to-day, so no extreme weight, and the backpack straps just keep ripping.

We even asked the manufacturer for a replacement, and that one ripped faster! Now we are stuck with asking for 385927 replacement bags or eating the cost and finding something else :(.

An absolute luxury when you’re a parent! I love that bag. I absolutely love how wide this bag opens up, the number of pockets on the inside, and the fact that it stands upright on its own. The straps are adjustable and they feel very strong, but they’re also soft so seem like they will be comfy to wear for long periods of time, and because it is a backpack – your both hands are free ! There is a removable changing mat included, which is stored in the changing pocket on the front.

There are enough pockets, so I can put all the wipes, nappies, bags, containers and etc. I love the hidden pocket at the top of the bag, I use it for my phone and wallet , because with other bags I dont feel so secure to leave it in it.

The materials seem very high quality and sturdy and the stitching is excellent, I can clean it with wipes , and the best is that is waterproof.

Bought for a baby shower ,the recipient was very impressed with the product.

Not quite as big as expected with description saying hospital bag but we should have checked the measurements. Still a great set for carrying everything baby needs

Lovely bag. Came through the post quite quickly. Looks good. Cant wait to use it.

Beautiful, bought it for a soon to be mother as a present. Lovely, soft and very well made. Super happy.
