I'm looking for a diaper bag that I can use with my Maclaren...the big diaper bag I have now does not fit in the stroller's basket. Would a Skip Hop bag tip the Maclaren (I have a Quest, if that matters)? Does anyone have pictures?
Or, can you recommend your favorite small diaper bag? Thanks!

I used a SH saddle bag on my Mac Twin. If you're looking for a small bag, that one did great. I have a larger SH that I use also, I don't think it would cause any tip problems.

I have a Skip Hop Backpack that has hooks on the straps. It is smaller, but not real small. I have a Quest and I personally think anything would tip it.

Ju Ju Be's (http://www.ju-ju-be.com/products.html) are reeeeealllly nice :love:

I also heard over on the Ju Ju Be forum that if you put hand weights (2lbs) on the front of the stroller
above the front wheels it will keep it from being so tippy when/if you put a bag on their :twocents:

I also like to use a Skip Hop saddle bag on my Maclaren. I have a Ryder. It helps with balance. I personally have never hung a bag on my Maclarens, I just don't trust them to not tip.

I love my SH duo. Anything tips if you don't take the bag off before the kid. But I have noticed that if I have a heavy bag in the basket it doens't tip with the Duo on there.

Depends on how much crap you pack :love:

The JuJuBe BeSmall might work for you.

I am currently rocking a JuJuBe Packabe (essentially a backpack, but can also be used as a regular bag), which works great when I take my Silver Cross POP stroller out and about (very Maclarenish.)

But yea, definitely can't go wrong with a Skip Hop! My favorite diaper bag ever :)
