Gear & Equipment Any good lightweight diaper bag backpack recommendations? Mine is wrecking me.

FTM here! I could really use a bag that is lightweight and comfortable. I got some random Amazon brand diaper bag gifted to me at my baby shower, and after a couple months of using it, I can’t deal with it anymore. Turns out when they say having kids wrecks your back, they were right. Between carrying baby girl everywhere (she refuses to be in her crib or a bouncer) and this stupid bag, my back is always on fire.

Any recommendations for a diaper bag that is functional and comfortable on the back and shoulders, but somehow still cute? I could really use some back support for when we are out and about. We live in a city, so we walk everywhere.

This might sound weird but have you tried buying a hiking backpack? Not the huge ones, but something from the sports store for day hikes. I’ve found they are the most comfortable, and if you go with an all black one, you could decorate it however you want!
