So tell me about JuJuBe

I'm thinking ahead, and I'll probably want to downgrade diaper bags soon now that DS is 14 mo and doesn't need much. I have a small bag leftover from Hayden, but it's just a crappy Carter's bag with no features(But hey- I snagged it at Ross for like $8). I thought it was great when I bought it, but now that I've had a little taste of a nicer bag I don't want to go back to it. Right now I have a JJ Cole System 180. I know it's probably nothing compared to a JJB, but it was a lot nicer than the big carter's bag I had before that was falling apart.

So here's my wish list:

Must have a mommy pocket. Preferably with credit card slots and multiple pockets. That's my favorite thing about the JJ Cole bag I have now- I don't have to carry a purse or even a wallet because it's got slots and pockets for my cards, money, coupons(just a couple), etc.

And I'm probably looking to carry:
couple diapers
wipes
changing pad
sippy or two
small change of clothes(just like a little romper or something I normally have stashed in the bottom of the bag jic
granola bar or two
mommy stuff- credit card, cash, lip gloss, cell
and a little wiggle room just in case I need something else. The more pockets the better.
ETA: And the nursing cover that DH insists I use anytime he's around and we're out somewhere.


I'll be keeping the big bag for long trips, so I want this one to be pretty compact. What am I looking for? MiniBe? Between? Something else?

i think u can fit all that in a between, behip(my 1st choice for you!), a minibe i say no because most sippies dont fit that great in the pockets on the side...but bottles would fit lol, u could probably get all that in a behave as well!

eta: the behave has cc slots! i would check one out from the PR because they are going cheap right now because of reveals, and u would have no problem trading for a new bag i can STUFF my behave...

Oooo I <3 credit card slots. What are reveals? lol New products? Do I have to do anything to be able to buy in TPR?

U can buy in the PR whenever ... There are just requirements to sell too see everything new and older (still available) check out the JJB section at littledudesanddivas.com

I second the Behave as a good bag. I like the organization in it a lot. (I HAVE to keep my stuff separate from DS's, that's just one of my quirks.) It is a heavier bag on its own though too. Size-wise, a BeTween also might work for you. (I just listed one in Swap. ) It's also lighter.

not sure if you think it will be too big but i recently got a BFF. its great for my 2 kids (15 months and 4.5 years). i like that i can wear it as a back pack or carry it by its handle or over the shoulder. i can fit all of that stuff in there easily and i have 1 in cloth diapers. it comes with a changing pad and the front pocket has plenty of space for mommy items. here are 2 pics:

That's sooo nice, but yeah, a lot bigger than what I'm looking for. I'm trying to downsize!!!

Oh my goodness I saw a JJB in person for the first time today. I get it now and reeeeeeeally want one now.
