#BagNation Diaper Bag Backpack with 12 pockets #Review

     Not too long ago, My mother-in-law got a new bag.  It was a book bag with the most awesome pocket ever.  It was a pocket designed to hold wipes so that you could retrieve them without having to even open the bag.  WHAT!?!?  I thought that was the most awesome bag EVER!  Fellow parents, you've got to know the struggle.  A million things a day requiring wipes and having to dig in your bag and find the package each and every time.  Ugh!  I honestly just let my kids go messy because it was such an irritation.

     Well, I'm proud to say that I am now an owner of such a bag.  My new bag is the Bag Nation Diaper Bag Backpack with 12 pockets.  It's not only a diaper bag, but a stroller organizer too.  It's got these cool little loop type buckles that attach it to the handle of the stroller.  Isn't that cool!?

     So here's the wipe pocket, isn't it awesome!  In the spirit of brutal critique, it'd be perfect if the pocket would round out a little in the middle to accommodate these type wipes. because the wipes sometimes pop open when the tab part catches on the edge of the pocket.  The hole is a smidge too small.  but... I can get wipes.  Without searching, fiddling, digging, or returning.  Just open and grab.  It's pretty stinking handy.  I couldn't count the number of times I have used it already and been thankful for it.

     The inside of the bag is a gorgeous and vibrant blue.  It's the perfect complimentary color to the black.  It's a polyester type material.  The outer material seems very durable, water-resistant, and stain resistant.  It's really nice.

     The pockets on this bag seem to come in every style, shape, and size.  There's one large compartment with little pockets inside the lining.  There's a semi circle pocket in the top of the front, a zippered pocket below that's about the right size to hold a glasses case, and there's a Velcro pocket below that that is medium sized.  Then on each side, there is a long pocket that would be perfect for holding either a small umbrella or a sports bottle.  Then there is the wipe pocket and on the other side there is a bottle pocket with a temperature control liner.

     The bag also comes with a changing pad that's considerably squishy, more so than the ones that come with most baby bags.  It also comes with a sundry bag, essentially a bag for the toiletries of baby days... things like ointment, clippers, lotion, etc.  I use it as a wet bag for diapers that I don't want to leave somewhere else.  Like when you're at a birthday party or something and you don;t want to leave a stinky diaper in your host's garbage can... that kind of situation.

     So anyway, as you can see, the bag rocks.  By the way, the padding on the back, where it rests on your back side, is SOOOOO soft and squishy.  I whole-heartedly recommend this baby bag to any parent or parent-to-be.  What's your favorite feature in a baby bag?
