Moms are always prepared. Need a Band-Aid? She’s got you covered. Want some hand sanitizer? She’s your go-to gal. Yearning for a snack or a drink or a coloring book? Look no further — Mama has it all in that big ol’ bag of hers. Bottomless pits of stuff, mom bags need to be both large and functional because we like to carry everything but the kitchen sink — and that’s only because it doesn’t fit. With lots of practical pockets and smart features, these stylish and roomy handbags can hold veritable pharmacies — because #momlife means being ready for anything with all the things. We’ve rounded up the best baby bags that aren’t actually meant to be diaper bags, because you’re going to want to hold onto these spacious accessories for years to come.
