Your guide to packing a baby bag
That’s the thing about baby bags - it’s hard to know what you’ll need to pack in one until it becomes an indispensable part of your life.
Don’t worry Mumma ~ we’ve got you covered!
This is your downloadable + printable checklist for everything you’ll need to pack in your Baby Bag for 0-6 months, 6-12 months and 1-2 years. We hope it’ll take the guesswork out of packing, and avoid an overstuffed bag that actually has nothing you really need.
