Mothercare messenger bag

I bought this bag becasue I wanted something not too girly that dh wouldn't have kittens about carrying. He loves it an calls it his 'man bag'.

I looked at some extorntionate changing bags in John Lewis so when this arrived from Mothercare I was really impressed with how nice it was and how many nifty features - the key thread is a lifesaver when I take dd out in her sling as if the phone pocket. I also like the little zip pockets which i use to store dirty terrys.

tbh though I don't use it with my pram as i have a quinny with its own changing pouch but expect i will use it alot more when she is bigger and i have to take more gear out with me.

I'm glad I bought this - not seen one since that I liked more and so much cheaper!

Bought this bag because didn't want to spend a fortune on a changing bag, just wanted the space, insulated pockets for bottles and wide variety of pockets. Lasted really well for first 6 months, and although a bit clumpy was satisfied with it, however because of its design when you start filling it with less as your child gets older, it still stays big and clumpy. The rubber came off the shoulder strap after about 6 months, and at a year we discovered a pointed bit of metal pointing out of the flap where the magnetic catches attach (actually it drew blood on my husband). It's not stylish, but at the beginning if you are one of these who wants to take everything with you just in case it will take most things. Watch it carefully as it isn't built to last, but it is one of the cheapest bags.
