Congrats on the new addition man! One little tip I found when mine was that age- at some of the nicer baby changing stations, there are little plastic protection sheets so you don't have to put your baby directly on the plastic. They are ultra thin/light, waterproof, but they also have a soft fabric layer for comfort. Anyway, I found those are nice to have around so you're not contaminating your receiving blanket (and them forgetting which side is contaminated) if you have to change them on a questionable surface. Also, they are good if you want to sit/kneel in grass that is a little wet. Plus, the price is right!
Congrats. I have a new daughter as well. This bag seems to be the one most go with. I really didn't want to get into any more trouble with buying more gear. lol. I was able to get all my necessities into my Maxped Lunada. I added 2 cocoons and a bottle holder to the sides and it was good to go.
Congratulations on your new baby! Kid-prepper is going to make an awesome big brother :D Two suggestions: 1) baby leg warmers. They're great for covering up babies arms or legs if the weather gets chilly. They'll also last a long time, our two year old has been wearing the same set of legwarmers since he was about 3 months old. Suggestion 2 is to get a couple of the binder clips from the office supply store (or um...liberate some from your office) and keep them with the stroller. You can use them to tack up the flannel blanket to the hood of the stroller on an especially bright day, or if you get caught in a bit of a drizzle and don't have a rain cover.
My wife got me a diaper dude bag when my son was born. I used it for about 5 years till she replaced it with a maxpedition versipack jumbo. I cant recommend it enough. Both bags actually.
+Urban Survivalcraft The Diaper Dude is a nice bag too. That was my first bag, although I felt that it couldn't be re-used once the baby no longer needed a diaper bag. The verispack can be re-used for so many other systems.
Congrats for your baby girl! We too got our first one just two weeks ago, so your timing with the video is perfect. I'll probably pack something simpler that I can carry as a module in my backpack: a few diapers, some wipes, cleaning cloth, perhaps minimal change clothes. Winter is coming, so can't keep anything that could freeze in the car. Warm "MRE's" are always available from the two integrated dispensers in her mom, but I suppose carrying some formula for emergency would not be a bad idea. I suppose it would serve as survival food for adults alike... Now that I come to think about it, would be rather perfect universal survival food? Does not store long though.
As a young prepper who just had his first kid this weekend, I appreciate this video, all of these products are still in common use and I found most of them at the baby section in the pharmacy. Now I've got my baby go bag all set up
Great edc. I carry a very similar bag. The only thing I added was a mosquito net for a stroller. Adds bug and sun protection. Love it keep up the baby videos
Congrats again on the new addition! I am not a parent yet, so it's very interesting to see what all you carry in your diaper bag that is also basically your EDC bag. Normally it's the mothers who have the diaper bags but I have seen more and more dads getting their own 'tactical' diaper bags and I love it! Great vid!!
Awwww.....congrats on being prepper-daddy-of-2!! As always, your module system is spot on. I can't wait to see how it evolves as B.P.-2.0 wraps you around her little pinkie! *snerk*
Wow, this is a great version of the Daddy Diaper Bag! You are very systematic, even with child based kits which is great! You're children are very lucky and it really gets me thinking about how my Prepping Systems would change if I decide to have kids in the future! :)
+Joe Betts Thanks Joe! Yep, I try to go with the same approach to systematic kits for all members of the family. Wait until you are married, have a stable job and stable living situation before you crank out kids. No need to rush it in order to design a baby kit. :)
Thanks UrbanPrepper, this vid is ridiculously convenient considering i bought that same back for a diaper bag and my first child was born Nov 11th! Congrats to you on yours and I look forward to followup videos.
+TheUrbanPrepper Wow, are you as tired as I am? I just realized I wrote my girls birthday wrong, I meant Oct 11th 2015. Thanks though, I love everything you put out!
awesome baby tac bag =] havin a baby boy here soon so this was perfect timing =] and Congrats on the baby girl btw. No better place to live than the NW. Go Hawks =]
Aww congrats on baby preppers 2.0! I trying to get my younger cousin and older cousin to become preppers too like me. Do you have any ideas for a teenager prepper bag?
Surprised not to see a changing pad. Might want to ask Doc about the use of acetaminophen; have seen a lot of talk in the medical field about rethinking it's use at all. Just a suggestion. Love the channel!
+19radagast73 Last go around I never ended up using a dedicated changing. I just used a receiving blanket, if anything at all. I'll look into the acetaminophen in more detail. Thanks for the tip.
I just got my UTG multi functional messenger bag and I couldn't wait until christmas because I would be using for both edc and traveling purposes as well and I couldn't wait for that. But do you have any video or other videos on youtube on how to be good at edc?
I see that you are carrying around bottles for feeding (breast milk). How do you keep the product cool while you are out for hours at a time? I like your pack and am trying to figure out how you handle that scenario.
Are you going to do a Daddy Diaper Bag for toddlers? I loved this video it really helped me as a first time father to make sure I was ready for quick outings!
Boy. Just hit the 1 year mark. So now I'm trying to figure out if portable/temporary placemats are worth putting in the DDB or what 😄 Can't wait for the update
Thanks for this! I do weekly solo "deployments" to Grandma's we are an hour away from home so I have forced myself to get in this mindset. I wonder what u recommend for toddler's.
Great Vid! What about Kid-prepper? I have two kids, about kid-preppers age. I'm not really happy with the options they have for backpacks; most of the time there's just not enough compartments. there's only the one big an maybe a front pocket. Do you have any tips as far as kid backpacks with organization options?
+Martin Westerblom KP and I have slowly been working on his EDC Backpack. He's been switching his setup a lot. I hope to get him to settle on something for long enough for me to make a video on it.
Boudreaux = boodrow. My ancestry is mostly French-Canadian. Cajuns would say 'BOO-drow'' with a slight emphasis on the first syllable. Yes, I'm that pedantic. :D
I keep forgetting to make a daddy diaper bag. Sometimes my wife forgets to leave THE diaper bag when she leaves me alone with the kids. I end up grabbing a plastic bag and sticking diapers, wipes, shirt, and bottle in it.
