I’ve done a few fun “What’s in MY Bag” posts before….but this one is super fun because it involves one of my favorite brands and a giveaway too! So, I’ll show you what I carry with me on a daily basis now, and I’ll also show you what I recommend carrying if you are a new Mom as well.
My bag currently:
- Phone
- Sunglasses
- Anti-bacterial wipes/Lens wipes/Shout stain wipes
- Spank stick
- Phone
- Keys
- Card zipper case
- Mints
- Medicine
- MayBooks Day Planner
- $$$
- Colored pens
- Ponytail bands
- Concealer & Lip gloss
That’s what I have in my bag right now. Connor is 3 years old and he now carries most of his necessities in his own backpack, which is awesome! He keeps Pull-Ups, extra underwear, extra clothes, socks, Dr. Smith’s Diaper Ointment, and some toys.
Below is what I would recommend to the new Mom wondering what to carry in her diaper bag:
These are some of my favorite things and also things that I carried when Connor was a young baby….
Connor has always had a sensitive hiney and it flared up a lot when he was a baby. Especially when he was sick. I still use Dr. Smith’s Diaper Ointment on him to this day. When he’s sick and has potty “issues” he still gets a rash. He also has splash day at school on Friday’s and his hiney flares up if he’s wet for too long in a swimsuit as well. Nothing has worked better for us than Dr. Smith’s. I kid you not, nothing…..
If you are a Mom of a young child or expecting your first baby I highly recommend Dr. Smith’s Diaper Ointment. The quality and customer service is beyond compare. You must try it so you can experience the magic it works on diaper rash.
Dr. Smith’s is now available nationwide at Walgreens. You can find the nearest retailer to you HERE. Dr. Smith’s Diaper Rash Ointment® is now at more than 10,000 new retail locations including Walgreens, grocers and supercenters nationwide!
My phone! I’d be lost without it!

Teressa Morris recently posted…Bud Is Finally Sleeping Thanks to His Nature’s Sleep Mattress!!
I am a bag minimalist!! I prefer very small purses and diaper bags. My purse is a zippered pouch with my money and credit cards, store cards in the side zipper with one lip gloss, pen, cell phone and keys. My diaper bag is 2 diapers, one cloth and one disposable, two small toys (usually a bouncy ball and a car, I have boys), a wet bag for the dirty diaper and a changing pad. My must have item would definitely be my cell phone.

The wallet is the first thing. My small notebook–it’snot exactly a day planner, but I don’tknow how I would finish errands without it.
Actually I try NOT to carry a bag. I prefer to carry as little as possible and have it fit in my pockets… must haves are wallet, cell, lipstick or chapstick, 3 aspirin, 3 xanax [suffer w/ extreme anxiety], generally a tissue [allergies]. That’s pretty much it except I always walk with a bottle of water as the anxiety otherwise leads to such bad dry mouth I can’t open it even to talk. If I do take a bag I add a pen and a piece of paper, and my glasses/ sunglasses. Thanks for the giveaway.

Wipes are a must have for me.
