UltimateMama will tell you that most mothers or fathers will admit to at least one time in
their child’s lives where they were away from home and did not have the proper
diapering supplies.
One mother took her child to the zoo and discovered that she
forgot to bring an extra set of clothes.
Unfortunately, the discovery took place after her child leaked through
her diaper near the zebras. Luckily, it
was a rather warm day so she was able to put a fresh diaper on her child and
cover her bottom half with a blanket. UltimateMama wants you to be prepared and avoid these messy situations.
UltimateMama offers two tips:
1.
stocked with the necessities.
2. Replenish: Replenish the supplies from your home stash or make a trip to the store for essentials.
UltimateMama's diaper bag includes the following items.

– diaper disposal bags (you can purchase environmentally
friendly bags)

antiseptic wash/ointment)
