Changing Bag for Cloth Nappies

Hi, I apologise in advance if this question has been asked a million times before...I did do a quick search and could only see old posts from several years ago and thought that new products would have been released since so there may be updated suggestions.
I’m due my first baby in March and we have decided to use cloth nappies and wipes from birth. As the nappies are bulkier than disposables I am going to need a good size changing bag. Does anybody using cloth nappies have any suggestions for bags they love or have not got along with? At the moment my shortlist just comprises of the Bambino Mio Baby & Beyond bag but I would love to hear some suggestions.
Thanks in advance for taking the time to read/answer!

Backpack with waterproof lining did the trick for me. I had clean and dirty bags for wipes and a dirty bag for nappies.

Small clean/dirty bags, so they fitted into the bigger bag.

Unless it was going to be a full day out, I just took one or two nappies with me and some reusable wipes in a ziploc bag plus a couple of liners and a muslin. I used a cross body handbag on one nappy days, a rucsac on longer days

I just use the bag that came with my pram but any bag will do you dont need a special bag for cloth nappies. The thing you will need is wet bags for dirty nappies and possibly a small sized one for carrying clean but damp cheeky wipes (also very useful when weaning at 6 months), I bought both of mine from Alva Baby via Fill Your Pants (i think!) both have been great.

I gave up using an official changing bag and just take a backpack and used wet/dry bags to store the nappies and wipes.

One tip is to carry the wipes around dry and take a spritz bottle to dampen when you want to use them, rather than storing wet wipes.

You definitely need a wet bag for the used ones, and I would recommend a compression bag for the dry ones (not necessary at all, but lovely to save space and keep everything organised) but apart from that you really can use any bag that suits you! I mostly use a leather rucksack because I can wear it easily with my sling. I also have a Storksak Elizabeth, which is lovely soft leather and just looks like a normal handbag. I love it to bits, I've been using it for years and it still looks great. It has loads of pockets, which is really handy. They are expensive, but they're often pretty reasonable on eBay!

I've got the bambino mio change bag, I received it as a gift from a friend it it honestly has been the best present i've ever received!! It is made for cloth nappies so the best thing about it is that there is sooo much space inside, loads of pockets for extras and it has a handy pocket on the outside to put all your used nappies or wet wipes in. Really comfy to wear too so I would really recommend that one. :)
