Has anyone seen a nice, huge bag I can use as a change bag for twins?

I'm not bothered about it being a 'proper' change bag, but it would need a long shoulder strap to hang on the buggy, and it does need to be enormous to get all the clobber in.

Not too expensive, maybe up to £50

Any ideas?

I've not got twins but 3 under 3's and have become v.streamlined in what goes in the bag! I've got a Boden baby change bag that expands right out but is then a bit bulky hanging off the buggy. Also got a regular shoulder bag that gets everything in - not got all the compartments like a baby bag does but is less bulky to carry, and one like the skip hop bags (mine is lollipop lane which was cheaper) that fits loads in and has big extra pockets on the front for bottles or anything you need quick.

I have a kipling change bag tis very roomy and has handy straps on either side to hang from buggy, mines is a different model but here's one www.amazon.co.uk/Kipling-Womens-Changing-Attachment-Expresso/dp/B001MBUSU8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=clothing&qid=1305293638&sr=8-1

TBH after nine months of solid use it still looks new.

I never had a pram or buggy but I think the straps of the biggest Longchamps Pliage (bout 60 quid) would go over?

I used mine as the strap drop is ideal for using with a sling and they don't slide off. Plus they are huge and washable in case something spills. No compartments, if that's your thing.

And congratulations!

I've got twins and another older one who was still in nappies when they arrived. Ended up getting a changing bag rather than a nice bag (!) and went with a Skip Hop duo - it's lasted well and the real plus point is that it clips onto the handle of a double buggy.

Congratulations on your twins!

Would the Skip Hop Duo fit on the handles of a tandem buggy? I know they're designed for side by sides, but we've got a tandem style buggy. Not sure if it would be too big.

The Longchamps Pliage looks gorgeous but was £115 where I looked! I'll keep looking!

The skip hop duo is very wide jojay, the clips fit beautifully on an Mountain buggy double so may be scrunched up on a tandem. I found it very heavy to carry around tho and quickly sold it on, they're huuuuge.
A messenger style one might suit as they have long straps. I've been using a backpack for some time (kipling one) and just use one of those heavy duty clips to hang it off the buggy. Buggy buddy I think. But my dts are older now (2.6) so I need something I can swing on my back.
(BTW, have a mothercare one fs that has long strap and very roomy, but didn't fit my baby jogger).
