The one-shoulder nappy bag is suitable for both mothers and fathers. The disadvantages of this style is that its weight cannot be dispersed. All the weight is carried by one shoulder. After a long time, you will feel painful on your shoulder. Moreover, this kind of bag has limited space and is only suitable for one day travelling.
2. Double shoulder diaper bag
The double-shoulder diaper bag is the diaper backpack. This type of backpack is generally made large enough to accommodate your baby’s holiday needs when you take your baby out. This type of backpack is generally designed with a very reasonable functional distinction, and it generally have tablet pc pocket , Diapers pocket, baby bottles pocket, milk powder pocket, wet tissues pocket, and even warm water insulation compartments, etc. It is quite suitable for mothers to take their babies to travel longer than one day to several days.

3. Tote diaper bag
The tote diaper bag is suitable for fashionable mothers and trendy mothers to go shopping with their babies, making them convenient and fashionable. However, the purely tote diaper bag is relatively smaller and miniaturized, and is suitable for storing things that you need to go out for a short time. Tote is the best choice for mothers who value beauty. Many mothers choose famous brand tote bags. This type of bag has enough capacity, but because the space in the bag is not clearly divided, it is not practical.
Therefore, we do not recommend famous-brand bags and cheap tote bags for mums to choose as diaper bags. Secondly, shoulder bags are also not recommended; many times when mothers go out with active babies, shoulder bags can easily slip off the shoulders, causing inconvenience to mothers, so backpacks are our most recommended styles.
3. Bags Material
Diaper bags are often made of the below four kinds material, before we choose it, we have to know different material characteristics and choose the suitable one for you and your lovely baby.
Canvas
Canvas has good soft performance. The biggest feature is that it is strong and durable. Especially for moms who need to bring a lot of things out, this kind of material has a large load-bearing capacity and will not be easily damaged, so it is more economical and practical. But the mommy bag made of canvas also has some shortcomings, that is, it is not waterproof, not resistant to dirt, and is easily deformed, yellowed, and faded after washing.
Polyester
Polyester fabric is a kind of chemical fiber garment fabric used in daily life. Its biggest advantage is that it has good wrinkle resistance and shape retention, so it is suitable for outdoor products such as outerwear, various bags and tents. In addition, the mummy bag made of polyester is easy to clean, it can be cleaned directly with washing powder, and it is easy to dry. However, it has poor water absorption and is not breathable. The back of the bag in summer is easy to bring a sense of stuffiness, and it may cause static electricity in the winter.
Oxford cloth
Oxford cloth is a new type of combed cotton fabric. Oxford cloth itself is strong and flexible. After long-term use, it can still maintain its original appearance and have a long service life. Bags made of this fabric are sought after by many trendy ladies who love beauty for their fashionable appearance, delicate texture, and good water resistance. So it is very suitable for beauty-loving moms.
But ordinary Oxford cloth also has a significant disadvantage, that is, it is not wear-resistant, so it should be avoided to rub it with hard objects for a long time to avoid damage.
Nylon
Nylon material has high mechanical strength, good toughness, high tensile and compressive strength, and is more suitable for making mommy bags for storing various items. In addition, its abrasion resistance is higher than all other fibers, so adding some nylon when making clothes and bags will greatly increase the abrasion resistance. The made mummy bag is light, easy to wash, and waterproof. .
Although nylon material has good water resistance, it lacks water absorption, so it is not very breathable, and it is not resistant to sunlight and is easy to age.
