Baby bag

Hill grabbed his wallet, passport, and the baby bag. He ran back for the twins, filled the bag with bottles, sterile water, and syrup, wrapped the twins up, re-joined the rest of his family—and only later realized he had forgotten the diapers.

Don't wait until you need your baby bag to get it stocked—always keep the bag ready to go. That way you'll be prepared to take off anytime—a very free feeling.

It doesn't have to be a special baby bag—any good-sized bag with pockets will do. An advantage of most baby bags, however, is that they come equipped with the sort of things you're going to find useful: for example, a change mat, an insulated bottle bag or compartment.
