Mary Poppins…

As a mum, i know most of you feel like you are constantly carrying the most, and the truth is we are (and i'm not just talking about the bags under our eyes) The pact and prep of ur baby bags or handbags become a task which involves a larger thought process than:

purse (check)

phone (check)

charger (check)

car keys/oyster (check)

lip balm (check)...

Oh how easy life use to be when you could leave your house with just your phone and money!!!! Once you become a mum it is 10 times harder to get out of the door and it becomes a completley new ball game! Its a whole new list that takes a good few minutes to pack and if you forget something you know that it could mess up your whole day (ever seen a baby without its dummy on a road trip..and petrol stations dont stock them :|)

So now i feel like Mary fucking Poppins, my bag has a combination of back up's and nappies and all sorts of things.

I recieved a request to tell you lot about my baby bag. I never got a baby bag, i was looking at the Marc By Marc Jacobs one, but then for my birthday my boyfriend bought me a new celine, so i was like ok...baby bag or big bag and then i basically convinced myself that I did not need a baby bag. But thats just me!!

I'm breast feeding so i dont need compartments for my bottles and that allows me to be more flexible with what i use. I rotate between my celine phantom, goyard and lv neverful and its worked for me. I also pack my bag every night before going out on a busy day out, I just dont pack my water or my homemade food until the morning (with all the things i need to do in the morning this just is one less thing i need to worry about)

So on a normal day i will pack

1. A baby gro, they are amazing because even if they ruin their outfit and their spare outfit they can just wear their baby gro, i sometimes stay at my mums and i have spare clothes there, but i always carry a baby gro incase!!

2 Toys- some sort of something for her to chew on as her teeth are coming in and something that makes noise, this is especially important when I am driving and she wants to get out of the seat, the rattle is a perfect distraction p.s i love this m&s one!!!

3. Bibs!!- 1 food bib (because i was only going to be out for one meal, if not i pack more than 1) and 2 dribble bibs, The bigger bib is from next and the 2 small ones are from primark and i love the pattern on them!!!

4. 2 muslins, one big one to use as a cover up if i am breast feeding and one small one for any type of wiping of of anything!!!

5. My fave ikea blanket lol

6.Milena is teething, so i am carrying Nelsons and dentinox is she decides to have a little episode when we are out!

7.I always carry milenas brush because i like her to always look neat and tidy, so i do stop sometimes when i see a hair out of place, and her waves are coming!!

8. Homemade food! and i always carry an Ellas pouch, because i never know what could happen so i always leave it as a back up. Also when I am driving and milena wants a snack I let her stuck from the packet!

9. Spoon (from ikea) and weaning bowl that my mummy got me from holland!

10. Some sort of snack to distract her when she is moody, I have started giving her these carrot sticks and they seem to do the job!!

11. Nappies and wipes (I use pampers and huggies wipes)

12. Water, i have the tommie tippie 4 month plus one!!

13. A spare outft, I am in love with these Gap blue boots!!!

Ft. Goyard and my bag clip that does not come with the buggy but i got it from Peppermint in Chiswick!
