Micralite - what bags fit?

I posted this in pregnancy as well and not sure where best to put the question but just wondered about getting some advice. I'm due on Friday and have a lovely micralite ready and waiting but realise I have no bag. I'm just wondering what bag will fit with it - does anyone have any bright ideas...? any thoughts or advice very welcome - thanks so much.

You need to be careful with the Micralite - its not called lite for nothing. It will tip without a baby in it if you leave any bag on the handles, as I discovered (and repeatedly forgot) many times. (You could try buggy weights to stop that though). It is fabulously easy to steer though which is why I loved mine.

Are you talking about a change bag? Anything with an adjustable shoulder strap should be fine to sling over it - I actually hung a clippasafe net bag over the handles and left it there, and the little bag that comes with it is fine for purse and bits and bobs, unless your using it with a maxi cosi car seat and have the pram body in that bag of course!

If you havent got a cosytoes yet, I don't actually recommend the micralite one - I find it stiff and so low down it doesnt cover a baby unless you flip up the big flap, and then it obscures their vision completely. In hindsight I would have bought a buggysnuggle.

Best of luck!

thanks so much lynniep - much appreciated. I am as you say talking about a change bag but think i'll stick with one of those travel change mat things in the basket and for the time being will keep keys/phone etc in the pram bit whilst the baby is tiny - will cross the next bridge when I need to!!
Annoingly I did get the micralite one as thought it easier to do it all at the same time....umm - not doing to think about that though - will be a while until the little person is in the push chair mode I think!
Thanks again - really appreciate your help.
