wow nice wetbags!! i made a hot pink pul wetbag and even put a black zipper on it. not as cool as some ive seen but not bad for homemade either. it does wick around the edges where ive sewn it.
but it works well.
I use Planet Wise wetbags! In fact, we have one with the same print as the hanging bag on the post. We LOVE them. I think they’ll grow with us–such a cute (and secure) way to carry wet bathing suits.
I have a little drawstring wet bag I keep in the diaper bag, but my baby is only 6 weeks old and we haven’t yet been away from home long enough to use more than 1 or 2 diapers.
I have a drawstring wet bag to put them it. The drawstring doesn’t work very well so I usually just roll it closed.
I have a drawstring wet bag I use.
Our baby has not yet been born (due any day though!) but we are hoping to use the Planet Wise Wet Bags… we have purchased one and have turned several friends onto them as well!
Weeellll…I’ve only been cloth diapering for about a month, and have yet to encounter this! We mostly just do quick trips to the grocery store! I’ve been looking around for wetbags because I know I will need one! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I have a Mommy’s Touch zippered bag that has worked well for us for daily outings. It doesn’t hold more than about 4-5 BG 3.0s, so sometimes we’ve had to use plastic grocery sacks. Not the most environmentally friendly option, but in a pinch, they work great!
I blogged about the giveaway!

I LOVE FRIDAYS! I have a Grobaby bag.
I use a Wet Happened wet bag that is a size small, but with another baby on the way I would LOVE to try a Planet Wise Wet Bag. I’ve heard LOTS of great things about them!
I currently use a reusable grocery bag when we’re out. I’d love to get a wet bag for on the go cloth diapering.

I tried a reusable bag when my first was an infant, but it was way to small for a long day out. so now with two in cloth I just grab a plastic grocery bag. (I know it’s not horribly eco responsible but at least it gets one more use out of it before it hits the landfill)
My diaperbag has a changepad that has a wet bag attached to it with a zip lock style closure. I use this to store the wet diaper and wipes.
The truth is, we are only doing cloth diapers at home because I haven’t ventured into the world of wet bags. This drawing could be just the spark to get us going. It took us some time (and some coaxing of my husband) to start cloth diapering, but we love it.
I use a small wetbag, or if that’s dirty, a good old fashioned plastic grocery bag.
ugh! we are using our spare (the one that isn’t in the wash/dirty) diaper pail liner and just kind of stuffing it with the dirty ones as the other ones get clean. its not a good stystem! WE need one that zips or closes and hangs for the travelling we would like to do. I dont want to use disposables, but if I forget hte bag, heaven help us!

To store diapers when we are away from home, I reuse zippered plastic bags that other baby items came in. ROBeez shoe bags work well for newborn sized diapers. Some of those types of zippered bags even have handles!
For overnight trips (our extended family lives out of town) we use the plastic bag that our son’s crib bedding came in.
These bags contain messes really well, and are easy to wipe down afterwards. The best part is that they were free!
I am new to the cloth diaper world. I have been asking my mother a million questions about what she did with us kids, what worked and what didn’t. They did not have anything like a wet bag. So right now the extra canvas bag (that leaks) is what we are using like the old days.
We don’t own a wet bag so I stick our wet/soiled cloth diapers in a plastic ziploc bag. I’ve been eyeing the Planet Wise bags since before my daughter was born, but there hasn’t been money in the budget to buy one.
I reuse old zip lock bags and keep rinsing them and re-using for as long as they last. I had a wet bag with a draaw string that wore out and was never replaced. I also tried a wool bag, but that left a dampness in the diaper bag.
My CD stash is all used, and came with a Bummis wet bag. It does the job, but is only big enough for a couple of diapers. Our next LO will be here in a week or so and I know we will need something bigger/better for those EBF dipes!
My baby isn’t here yet, but I was planning to purchase a small wet bag or use zip lock bags.
i use a wet bag, of course! or in a pinch any plastic bag i can get my hands on which isn’t the most ecologically friendly but it works, in a pinch.
I have a whamies wetbag I use away from home. It fits 2-3 diapers and has sock monkeys on it. :)
I have never used this product but would sure like to. We are always on the go and since I have twins it’s double duty.
We’ve just entered the world of cloth diapering, so we haven’t had an “away from home” moment yet! Soon, though, as we will be taking a trip across the state. It would be great to use Planet Wise wetbags for the journey!
Going out is usually not gonna be messy for my 2 tots, who were recently CDed, with our most reliable ZIP-LOCK bags! When they get wet or went for the big bang, I usually toss the dirty Cdipes in a double lock gallon ZL. It’s not so stylish or glam looking but work great keeping those stinks inside the bag. I haven’t tried any wetbags yet.

I have a planet wise wet bag and I love it!!! It never leaks and it is a great way to contain that poopy diaper until we get home to rinse.
I store my diapers in a regular trash pail with a lid as a diaper pail. And as a bag I us a large planet liner this way it keeps my house smelling clean and when the bag is full a throigh everything in the laundry with two little ones in diapers I find this is the simplest way.
I store my girl’s wet diapers in wetbags. The ones we have now are not totally leakproof, so sometimes other things get a little damp…
I made my own wetbag.
I use any plastic bag I have on hand.
I actually have 1 planet wise bag that I use when away for short trips as the bag only fits about 2 diapers. I LOVE this bag, functional & stylish! I use another brand that I got from soft cloth bunz for longer trips.
I have a small wet bag I’ve been using. It holds about 5 diapers. We haven’t been out long enough yet though.
I have a very small wetbag we use for quick trips but really could use another or bigger one for weekend trips.
I use two small for outings and a large one for home.
I know someone who uses cloth diapers and this would be a nice gift for them.

My baby isn’t due until the end of July. This will be my third child, and I used disposable for the first two. So, I’m not sure how I will store the cloth diapers we have bought for this child when out. I actually didn’t give it much thought. Thank you for helping me with this!

We just stared cloth diapering as our son was born May 1st. So far I love them because the diapers are so soft against his skin. I don’t have any wet bags so right now we use small plastic bags for when we’re out. These hold the messes, but it’d be nice to have a larger one so I don’t have so many tiny bags in my diaper bag.
We use plastic grocery bags… terrible I KNOW!
My new little girl is due in 20 days and I still don’t think that I have everything that I need for her diapering needs! And these wet bags are SO CUTE! I am so glad that we have decided to cloth diaper! As if I didn’t have enough reasons before how great it is for baby and the environment, we get to add the cuteness factor, too!
Usually use a small Gladware sealable container with a little baking soda in it. Absorbs smells, and keeps things DRY! As a bonus it can hold the dry one too, then switch when changing!
The tubs can be hand rinsed, then steralized in the dishwasher, so no mess, no fuss!
Storage both home and away is my collection of small wet bags that home from 3 to 6 diapers each! I stuff until full and pull out another. I’d REALLY love a large bag for home to make it so much easier!!! And my Step Daughter is due any day now with her first, and is cloth curious, so I’m putting together a package for her and if won, the small bag will go to her! :)
I usually only do short trips, combined with EC, so I rarely even bring a spare diaper on the run. I just put up with a stink if it comes out (: For day trips, I just bring a plastic grocery bag, I didn’t even know that these existed.
I am sooo excited I usually use a rubbermade container, for home use. Out and about I have a smaller wet bag that is aplix sealed, fits 2 diapers
I have 2 PUL wet bags I use when away from home, but would love to have a PVC-free alternative.
When out shopping we use either plastic bags(we haven’t bought small wet bags yet) or our large wet bags to store soiled diapers. Whe on the road and visiting family, we use our wet bags and wash a load of diapers while we spend the weekend with our family.
I have a small wet bag that I carry in my diaper bag. I have a large wet bag I use at home. I bring both with me when I am traveling. I really need a few more for when these are in the wash.
My DD has PL’d and all of our old wet bags are just about worn out. We’re having #2 in October and I’d love to get a nice pail liner/wet bag set! These are so awesome looking and I’ve heard a lot of great reviews on them!
How adorable, I love both of them!! We have a small zippered pouch we carry in the diaper bag, this is used when we go out. It only holds 4-6 diapers! As for home- I have a diaper pail…no liner. I sanitize it while I do my diaper laundry.
We use a Goodmama wet bag right now but I like the idea of separate clean/soiled compartments!
In a wetbag I bought from a WAHM off HyenaCart, but I need bigger ones…
I previously used bummis bags but after years of washings, they weren’t waterproof anymore. Now I use plastic grocery or newspaper bags.
I don’t… we always put disposable on when we go out! These things look great!
So funny that I can get another entry… I had already posted about the new product and giveaway on my blog… just because I like to support you guys and saw it in the newsletter, then I came over here to enter the contest and saw that it could get me another entrance!
Thanks!
I don’t have any wet bags, so I’ve never taken my baby out in a cloth diaper. I got some good ideas of alternative items to use from the comments. Thanks!
We use a WHAMIES wetbag for small outings. Not big enough for our stash though. We use big Ziploc(s) for trips.
you store them in a planet wise wet bag
I’ve been using old grocery bags to store wet cloth diapers when we’re on the go. It’s not the most odor-free method, but it gets the job done.
I bought a whammies wet bag and it’s great for short trips but I end up putting diapers in plastic bags if we spend the night anywhere. I’d love to give up the plastic bags finally :)
I have a small wetbag for outings during the day. My in-laws are a 3 hour drive away and we end up there about one weekend a month to visit. At first I would take the cloth but I felt like it offended people- we’d stash the used ones in a trash can in our bedroom with a plastic bag and man did it stink! I ended up putting a pillow over it to contain the smell, but would stink up the whole laundry/kitchen area when I went to clean them.
It’s a hassle now for us so I’ve started using disposables when we go- which I don’t really like doing. I’ve been looking into getting a hanging wetbag/pail liner to use when we go. I think the Planet Wise would be perfect because I can also keep my daughter’s clean diapers stored in it!
We use a wetbag with a zip closure. It is a beautiful flower print that coordinates with my red diaper bag. It only holds about 4-6 diapers, deepending on the kind of dipe. My baby is only 5 weeks old, so we haven’t been away from the house for long stretches yet.
Wow! I just got the email telling me that there was a wet-bag giveaway! I am so excited-I use my wet-bag all the time when I’m out and about. It works great when I get someone to baby-sit my beautiful son, Adison. And now i’ll be going back to work on Monday and he’ll be staying with a nice lady. I’d love to have another wet-bag so I don’t have to wash the same one over and over. Yay!
Right now I’m using Wal-Mart bags. I want to get a wet bag to keep in the diaper bag, but I can’t afford it right now, I’ve already spent more than I could afford getting started with cloth diapers!
Since I only cd my ds at night, if we are out of town, I throw them in a plastic grocery bag :(:( My second ds is due in a month, so I really do need a wet bag!!
I love the planetwise wetbags!
When I am out and about – I just use a plastic grocery bag….but sadly, when I am out of town for more than a day, I switch to Disposables (just because I don’t want to have to carry around soiled cloth diapers.) A wetbag would come in SOOOO handy. I could do away with disposable diapers forever.
The Bum Genius AIOs fold up nicely, and keep the wetness (but not the stench) contained until we hurry home. I’d love a wetbag!
We keep a size med planetwise wetbag in our diaper bag. Sure beats carrying a grocery store plastic bag, especially since we use green bags to grocery shop anyway.
I posted on my blog!

i use a bummis tote to store my soiled diapers. mine is getting a bit worn, so a new free one would be so nice! :)
I currently use a Planet Wise wet bag for ds, amd I love it. But we’re about to start taking care of a foster care baby and I’ll need to add a wet bag or 2 so winning these would be perfect!
We have a what happened wet bag. However, hubby packs the diaper bag on Sunday mornings…and it never fails that he forgets to include it. The poor nursery workers must think I’m crazy!! They always keep grocery bags on hand:-)
when away from home I use a plastic zip loc bag for diapers. I’m hiding my head in shame.
We’re currently using a dry bag that has been repurposed from our camping gear. Generally, if we’re only out and about for the day i’ll reuse produce bags for a diaper or two but the camping bags come in handy for a weekend away but I’ve been watching for a fantastic deal on Planet Wise Wet Bag just to have something prettier!

I’d love to purchase a wetbag eventually. We currently use gallon size ziploc bags.
I’ve always used plastic bags when I am out. I’ve never had a wet bag and would love one!!
I use happy tushies wetbags. I have several homemade PUL bags as well. Of course in a pinch, I’ve used a raincoat, a grocery bag, and even a bathing suit.

I can’t afford a wet bag, so I just use a grocery bag :( Kind of sad and totally NOT environmentally friendly at all, but its all I have….. Those planetwise bags are beautiful, it would be a dream to win one!!
We have a stash of plastic grocery bags (although Target bags seem to be the best) in the diaper bag and in our car for wet diapers when we’re away from home. We just haven’t gotten around to getting a wet bag and with two in cloth diapers who are both heavy wetters, we have to get a wet bag that’s big enough for our needs.
I have 6 children and am currently building up our diaper supply so we can make the switch to cloth full time for #5 and #6. :) If I needed a wetbag at this point I would probably use the plastic case that came with our diaper bag, but it is tethered so it’s hard to clean. These new Planet Wise bags look like a great option for us to use in the future!
I always use a handy wet bag. Zippered ones are better, in my opinion, since they keep everything in, that needs to be in, without letting any offensive odors out! I’ve been CD for about 1 1/2 and this system has worked out well for us so far!
I have a WAHMIES wet bag in the diaper bag and a Mother’s Touch wetbag for daycare. I would LOVE to have a hanging Planet Wise wet bag to take traveling to the grandparents!
I use a small wetbag from a WAHM. I got it free on Black Friday a couple years ago when I purchased diapers. My daughter loves it, as it is the “bubble ducks” pattern. We fold it up in fourths and tuck it in with the changing pad. In a pinch I’ve rolled a diaper into the cover (fitted), but luckily I usually remember the wetbag! Would love to have another one to add to the collection!
My baby is due in July so I haven’t had to store wet diapers yet. I’ve got a nice stash of cloth diapers to use when she’s born and have been looking at the Planet Wise wet bags. I would love to win this to help feed my stash!!
I use a small Bummis wet bag for wet/soiled nappies. I love it because it is small and even when full fits nicely into my diaper bag.
I just love the prints on the giveaway bags!!!
This is a great question because I am not sure yet! I just ordered my first package of cloth diapers and are new to the cloth diapering world so a wet bag would be perfect!
Posted on my blog.
I use a WAHMies while I’m out – but I need something hanging for upstairs.
I currently have a small planet wise wet bag and a medium whamies wet bag. I love the planet wise, but the small is very small. I would love to add these.
We use old plastic bags or place it in the lined part of our diaper bag if not messy. I need to get one of these:)
I just started CDing out of the house now that I have gotten the hang of CDing a new baby. I have a Whammies wetbag that I put her diapers in & have been wanting to try a Planet Wise wet bag after hearing how AWESOME they are!!
I have a small zippered wet bag. Man I could REALLY use another one!!
I use a wetbag that I stash in my diaper bag or purse. But I would love to carry only the wetbag as I pack light! This would make that possible!
Haven’t had much time out of the house with a little one yet, but so far, using doubled-up plastic bags inside a prettier bag! Can’t wait to try these wetbags!
I toss them in a small zippered Pooh wet bag that a friend made me.
I have tried several different wet bags. I learned I didn’t like drawstring style. I bought some from different WAHMS with various degrees of satisfaction. One set of bags had very thin plastic stuff that didn’t last. My large wet bag for home now has a plastic trash bag inside because the plastic stuff ripped. The medium from the same WAHM that I would send to daycare is also shot. My toddler is at day care 5 days a week and having several wet bags makes things a lot easier for getting the diaper bag ready for the next day.
I use a happy tushies wonderbag. It’s been great, but I’m ready to try something new!
I currently keep a wet bag in my active diaper bag and gallon size ziplocs in all three diaper bags. I try to keep an “extra” bag in the trunk in case of an emergency.(Hey I have 5 boys, you dont always have time to pack a diaper bag before going to the ER.)
I keep one bag by the front door and one in my room. That way I always have at least one bag handy. I keep meaning to buy another wetbag or two but get busy with the boys.
I think having a couple more wet bags will make things easier. My husband will be able to keep one statshed in his car and I would have one for each diaper bag. Now if I could convince my kids ages 3mo-15yrs to clean up behind themselves my life would be perfect.
Currently I am using/reusing a plastic baggie, and let’s just face it, it’s no where near as cute as these wet bags : ) I’m new to cloth diapering I just started CDing my son who is just about potty trained and we are expecting our next little one in a couple weeks so I would love to win this! : )
I store the dirty diapers and clothing in plastic bags while we are out.
I have two wet bags that are in constant circulations, but these are nicer. I think I will have to get one next time I order.
I’m trying to use up my stash of plastic grocery bags, so that’s what I do with my CDs when away from home. But I’m coming to the end of it though, so these wet bags would come just in time!
I use a wet bag or sometimes a plastic bag. These look so cool!
I use a small Bummis Tote Bag. It’s water resistant and has a drawstring. On the outside of my diaperbag I have a carabineer(?) that I hook my tote to. This way I have still have room in the diaperbag for all the other stuff I have to carry!
We use a PW wet bag! It is so cute, but has a bleach stain due to DH :(
Would LOVE to win a wetbag! Right now my wetbag is highly impractical :)
Sorry! My post got cut off so, if you can delete it, please do so! When we are away from home i fold up the diaper and place it back in my diaper bag. YUCK! If we are gone for a longer time, i’ll put it in a plastic grocery bag…
I have a small zippered wet bag that I use but it only holds 1-2 diapers plus dirty wipes. I like the planet wise wet bags because they are PVC free!
I have three Natural Baby Company wet bags and I rotate them in my diaper bag. I also use the large size in the nursery. I have two and rotate them as well.
I’m going to store the diapers in a smaller wetbag. I haven’t purchased yet because I just started building our stash. There are so many nice patterns on the Planet Wise bags.
Actuallly I have never used my cloth diapers when we go out. Mainly because we do not have anything to put them in, until we get home. I have a 2 year old and a 6 month old who are both in cloth while we are at home and disposible when we go out. These bags look very convenient, Im thinking about investing in a couple of them now!
Hi! When I had a kidlet in cloth diapers, I made myself wet bags out of some random bright yellow waterproof fabric I bought at Joanne’s.
Now I’m making cloth diapers for my school chum who is exclusively cloth diapering. I haven’t made her a wet bag yet, but if I won some, she’d get good use out of them. :)
Oooh, pretty wetbags!
We’ve been cloth diapering for almost 2 years now, so we have a few small wetbags that we keep in the diaper bag– 1 that zips and one that has a snap.
I use the smallbummis tote bag now when I am out with my one month old which is more often than not because my older children do a lot of activities and my husband is deployed right now. It works alright but have found the drawstring part of it to be a bit of a hassle because I need to have two hands to do it and sometimes the situation does not allow for it.
I have a drawstring wet bag I use away from the house, or if desperate, I use a plastic bag.
I use a large drawstring (arrghh!) wetbag for overnight trips. I’ve got a small zippered one for trips to town.
I store my wet/soiled cloth diapers in a drawstring nylon bag that I think used to hold tent stakes when I’m away from home. If I am visiting family or friends I like to use their grocery bags and then recycle them when I am done.

When i’m away from home i normally keep the dirty dipes in a small Bummis wetbag which is fine for short trips but when visiting family for a day or other longer trips i usually carry a pail liner which is bulky to say the least or a couple of the small Bummis bags.
I use BUMMIS small bags and a HAPPY HEINYS small bag for the diapers while out and about. We also use a WAHMIES wet bag for all of the reusable food containers during the day while baby is at Grandma’s house! There are so many uses for them-I need some to put the BUMMIS swim diapers in during this hot weather and swim lessons!!!
We used a ziploc bag. On long trips I used scented small garbage bags.
All those lovely plastic bags from the grocery store. I used to have so many they were over-flowing out of their container. Now, my pile os almost gone.
I actually just purchased a little beach cloths bag from the grocery store that I have been using for my daughter who is potty training and still has accidents. Unfortunately, we had to use it today. I do not have a wet bag, but would love one since I have one other child in diapers and another baby on the way due this summer.
Wet bags or zippered compartment in my diaper bag
Since I never came up with a solution for dealing with wet diapers when out and about, we always used disposable. I would love to have a solution that is as simple as this!
We have an old wet bag that we use. I’m so overdue in buying a new one. I think this may be just the one for us!
With our little one (or ones – fingers crossed!), we intend to use biodegradable/flushable diaper liners for actual travel through airports, etc. We will keep the wet cloth diapers in a wet bag and wash at our destination! I’m really looking forward to the Planet Wise wetbags because of the sealed zipper – no leaks or smells!
I use a bread bag to store the yucky diapers when I’m out – if I have access to a sink, I wash the diapers out first but if not, they get wrapped up in the bread bag and the stink and dampness stay very well contained. I’d love to have a real wetbag though! (I just can’t bring myself to buy one when our free bread bag works just fine!)
I just started using cloth diapers and haven’t felt comfortable enough to use them outside the home. Mostly because I don’t know what to do with them! These would be great for me so I can finally stop using disposable for good!
When I am actually thinking ahead, I store wet diapers in one of the re-used ziplock bags that I TRY to keep in the diaper bag. Of course, there was that time when we had a diaper explosion and I had no bag…thank heavens that I had an empty 5 gal bucket in the car!

We have 2 drawstring bags and a zipper bag. All PUL, the zipper one is by far the easier to operate. The drawstring keeps getting stuck! I have been on the lookout for a good deal on a new zipper one. =)
Well, I am pregnant with my 3rd but this is my first adventure with cloth diapering. I’ve been reading so many message boards gathering ideas and tips. I will most likely be asking for recommendations for a suitable wet bag to keep with us while were out.
I have a PW wet bag and it is definitely my favorite! I also have a WAHM wet bag, but it leaks :-(
I currently have 2 PUL zippered wetbags. I have 2 kids in CDs… they hold about 4 diaps, so I have to keep 2 in the diaper bag at all times. I also have some plastic grocery bags as back up. I love my wetbags.. and when I walk into the restroom with a CD and a wetbag.. I get lots of questions.. and I can tell everyone about cloth diapering!
I re-use a plastic bag from the supermarket, but these look much cooler and more functional!
I use plastic bags from the grocery store or I have also used large ziploc bags if I run out of grocery bags.
I have a zippered wet bag from Whammies. I also send it to the sitter for her to use at day care.
I have a zippered Planet Wise wet bag that I love (the snapping loop handle is ingenious), and could really use another to alternate with the wash cycle -one to use and one in the wash. ;) I also have some small drawstring wet bags that were badly designed: the drawstring is elastic cording and it’s a pain to pull closed!
I posted on my blog, too:

Here’s my blog post: http://www.facebook.com/note.php?created&&suggest¬e_id=103775446927&id=
:)
For our baby due this summer, we’re hoping to get a small wet bag to stash in the diaper bag for when we are away from home.
I use ziploc bags since this is my first baby and haven’t gotten everything I need for cloth diapering my 4 month old with traveling. I would love to have a wet bag to take along when I’m out and about.
Hi! I linked to your contest. Thanks!
http://knitikas.blogspot.com/2009/05/contest.html
I use plastic grocery bags or ziploc bags if I’m out and about.
I stitched up a few zippered wet bags using pul that I rotate in my diaper bag. Each one holds 1-2 diapers depending on type. They work pretty well for short trips, but do start to wick moisture if left for more than a few hours.
Bad I know but all I have is used plastic bags. I tend not to go out with cloth diapers but some times I just grab my son and go and froget he has them on.
Since I don’t have a wet bag yet, this is the method I use when my baby and I are out and about:
I put the wet/soiled cloth diapers in a biodegradable, eco-friendly bag, tie it up and put it in a separate section in the diaper bag.
I just started cloth diapers a few months ago with my daughter and I know, I am bad too, I used the plastic bags, but on the plus side, I then recycle the bags. I didn’t really know about the wet bag til I got the email for the contest.
I use a large hanging wet bag when we’re away. Nothing beats a wet bag for it’s capability to keep those smells at bay! And, you can never have too many. I look forward to using the smaller ones for pool days/swimsuits. I hope to pass them on to the kids for their dirty linens when we travel.
I use a “Wet Happened” bag that I got at Target. It’s awesome, but I’d love to try these out!!
The lady who runs the charity thrift store where I donate lots of clothes gave us the most awesome diaper bag. It looks like a military green messenger bag, it’s called “Diaper Dude”, and it has a zipper in the bottom that opens up to a built-in wet bag! However, our little guy is 2.5 months old and we’re just getting started out with cloth diapers. I’ve only got 2 AIOs and a diaper cover and some prefolds! I must escape the clutches of disposables!
I am new to cloth diapering and waiting for my diapers in the mail. I love the Planet Wise bags and have been eyeing them for weeks! I love the stylish prints and the reputation, and would love to wim these bags!
I am still working on a way to store my son’s dirty diapers away from home. Right now, we use plastic bags! I hope to find something much better soon, as I grow more confident in cloth diapering away from home!
We currently use plastic bags. I reuse these so they dont go to waste. I would love a cloth bag to store dirty diapers in :)
I’m not sure how I will store my diapers when I’m away. This is my 4th child due in 2 weeks but my first time going “green.” So any suggestions would be great. We go camping a lot and we could find a laundromat, but not every day.
I’ve just gotten brave enough to leave the house with my 6 mo. old in a cloth diaper. I have a little Bummis drawstring bag, but envy the cute zippered ones other women I know use. Maybe I’ll win these!
please enter me. the wetbag i bought off of ebay leaks so bad.
I used to just use plastic bags while we were out. However, my daughters recently started daycare and they have accepted the cloth! Instead of having them put each diaper into a plastic bag and then into a wetbag (sort of negated the “green” part of us using cloth), I had a friend make me a bunch of small zipper wet bags from pul and then got some small whamies too. Each diaper is put in the small wetbag and then added to the large purple dot Planet-wise bag. I now have a huge appreciation for wetbags and plan to continue to use them for wet bathing suits, clothing, and anything else I can think of.
I just would put them in a plastic bag…nothing special!
My baby is not due until Oct. but I plan to use plastic Wall-Mart bags to put the dirty diapers in.
I use a wet bag, which works great. We need to invest in another since we are constantly on the go with three other kids in baseball and softball.
I use a small zipper wet bag. It controls the odor and worked fine for us for a while but I’ve found that I need 2 bags… one for wets and one for dry dipes. I’d LOVE to have a larger one with 2 pockets! Brilliant!!
I’ve been looking for an additional (and different!) wet bag. These look great!!!! I’ll have to check them out!
I just bought cloth diapers off of your web site and love…LOVE them but now it’s time to find something to keep them in when dirty, both at home and on the go. These seem very neat i just have to look into getting some.
I just started cloth diapering and don’t have a great system yet. So far I’ve just been using a drawstring canvas bag.
I DO NOT USE ANYTHING FOR MY CLOTH DIAPERS YET…I just think this is such a great contest so you can try out new things that i just had to tell the world!!!!
GO CHECK OUT MY BLOG!!!!

I took a Dollar Tree waterproof laundry bag & cut it to make 4 bags. I have been really pleased with my frugal (um, cheap :) way of a small wetbag. They actually hold up to washing too. I’d be delighted to win such wonderful bags.
I have been cloth diapering for 8 mo. I started diapering 2 kids, but one of them is finally potty trained. The other one is only 9 mo. When we started buying diapers we were getting what we absolutely needed to get by and never even got a wet bag. We’ve been using plastic grocery bags or ziplock bags, which I hate. So I would LOVE to win the wet bags!!!!
I save and use the plastic bags from when you buy fruits and veggies. So after I buy potatoes, they store poo diadies. Reduce reuse recycle!
I don’t use anything for my cloth diapers yet either!
When my grandchild is here we just use old grocery bags! It would be great to have these!
For a short trip I use a small wet bag, or an old grocery bag. For a longer vacation I take my Happy Tushies diaper pail liner.
Confession: I store my dirty diapers in grocery store bags when we’re on the road and transfer them to my diaper pail when I get home!
I have a small drawstring wet bag that I carry in a very large diaper bag. When I get home I dump the dirty ones in the pail along with the bag and add a new wetbag to my diaper bag for the next day.
I have yet to take the cloth diapers on an extended trip from home. I don’t have a wet bag so I am un-eco-friendly and use old grocery bags! I could really use these bags! Thanks for the chance to win!!
I found these bio bags which are biodegradable plastic sacs that we use in our green waste. ANd since DD is in a home day care, I send a pack of these once every two months, the dirty diapers come back every day in the biobags, and i wash the diapers and then reuse the bags in my green waste trashcan. i keep thinking i should buy something truly reusable, but she is 17 months now and i think, she will be potty trained soon, do i want to buy yet another diapering accessory? now that we are in the US for a while, I must have something, cause I dont know what her new daycare will do or want and since I brought all of her diaper supplies with us, I dont want to subscribe to a service that uses their own.
Wish I had a set of these! They look awesome and would def beat re-using the plastic bag I got from the grocery store!
Oooo, I was just saying I need another wet bag for win my main one is in the wash! So I’ve been shopping around…
When we’re on a weekend trip or something I just bring our usual bag. When we go out to eat or go somewhere for just a couple hours, I use this little mini waterproof plastic detachable pouch that came with the diaper bag. (I’m pretty sure for that purpose?)
Thanks for the giveaway!
We plan to use wetbags but have yet to actually purchase one! Baby will be here anytime, we better get on that!
I have never cloth diapered, but plan to do so when our new baby is born in September, so I have no clue how to store them…
I actually found a day care provider who will do cloth diapers, a Planet Wise wet bag would be perfect for theirs and my use.
I am expecting my first baby in 6 weeks and we are planning to cloth diaper, but haven’t come up with a method for storing soiled diapers while on the road outside of plastic bags. Sounds like this is a great product; it would be more environmentally friendly and easy to use.
i dont yet! we havent been able to get a bag that we liked to bring dirty dipes home so we have actually used (omg, i hate it) disposables when we go out. you can imagine that we dont go out often. but my baby is only 7 weeks old, so there hasnt been much of a time for opportunity, either.
i imagine soon we will be using trash bags because i am out of hospital sposies and im not going to buy anymore!
When we are away from home we have a homemade wetbag that my mom made me. It holds the diapers well, but it doesn’t close well. It has ribbons to close it and it is hard to open and close, so it is usually open and folded over. I would love to get these to replace what we have.
getting these things would be so nice. I have one still in diapers full time. My newest one is due in Augest and I have one that wets once in a while. having a place to put the wet things so that the diaper bag and car do not smell would be a life saver.
I only have a small wet bag for the car/diaper bag that holds one/two diapers. Getting the bigger bags would make things so much easier!
Walmart and Target bags is what we use if we’re on the road. We keep them in the car from the days of morning sickness.
We have i small wet bag, but it only holds 1 diaper, so plenty of times they just get rolled up and tucked onto the diaper bag pocket:(
I use a zippered wet bag. Today I forgot my wet bag at home and definitely needed one at the park. It would be nice to have an extra one in the car!
I love the little planetwise bag i have. it works great and keeps the smell away! yay! an extra one to rotate into the stash would be awesome!
I have one wet bag that I love but I so need another one. I have to use plastic bags when I wash. I would love to have more than one to rotate with in my stash.
We use a small Wahmies wet bag. It often wicks though if the inside is quite wet. I have also used a mother of Eden wetbag but I didn’t care for it as it had only one snap to close it.
I have a small jam tots wet bag that I carry when we are out of the house for an extended period or to send to the child watch at the gym. I tend to use plastic grocery bags when we are just out and about during the day running errands.
I currently don’t use cloth when out b/c I don’t have a great way to store them. When on vacation I just use a trash bin and wash frequently. I’ve looked at the wet bags but haven’t broken down and bought one yet.
We have been usuing a small wet bag but are in need of a larger bag with a new baby due next month.
When we’re away from home, I just throw soiled diapers into our Bummis small wetbag, which I keep in our diaper bag. It works fabulously! For longer trips, we use couple larger wet bags- one to store the clean diapers, and one to store the dirty diapers!

We’re currently using a planet wise wet bag, but it would be great to have another to use while the one is in the laundry.
I use a small waterproof laundry bag, that I bought from a sporting goods store, it is intended to be used for camping/hiking. My problem is that it contains the wetness, but not the smell :(
Anyway I can! I travel a lot with them, so sometimes a grocery bag, a wet bag, a waterproof laundry bag or just wrapped up in a large prefold!
I actually use those little green (sort of biodegradable) bags to contain our cd’s when we’re out and about. They work well and fit very nicely in to our regular diaper bag but I’d rather use a wetbag.
I also have 2 large wetbags that I use instead of a pail. I think they are great, especially when they go right into the wash with the diapers. :)
I use a wool pouch, which does NOTHING to stop my diaper bag from getting smelly. So I would LOVE a new wet bag!
I use a large white zip bag that held the bulk diaper wipes. I would love something cuter :-)!
I’ve been trying to use up what plastic bags I have left in an attempt to rid my house of them for good, so I usually use one of those in a pinch. I LOVE the idea of a wetbag with a zipper instead of a drawstring!!!!
I had to change the link to my blog because my email subscriptions weren’t working right… Here’s the new blog:
http://daveysdiapers.blogspot.com/2009/05/planet-wise-wet-bag-giveaway.html
I have a great water proof purple bag. I think it’s a bummis one, but it’s sadly wearing out and starting to wick, so a new one would helps tons!
We have a small wahmies wetbag, hold 3 dipes, not big enough, so we use Ziploc gallon bags :)
We have 2 boys but have a “girly” wetbag we got for super cheap…
Save my boys!!
I have one small wet bag for when I’m out but would love another one for when it’s in the wash.
Usually I have to beg a plastic bag off of someone or store it rolled up in the diaper bag because I usually forget the wet bag at home. :/
I have been looking for the best or favored wet bag from moms who already use cloth diapers. I have heard the best things about Planet Wise. I am going with this one, the large hanging one when I have my 3rd in August.
I use a wet bag that is made by a SAHM. I LOVE it
Right now I just use a plastic grocery bag. Sad I know. I need to get something a little more environmentally sound!!!
We use wet bags when away from home and have to send one every day to daycare. Sometimes I forget and dirty diapers have to be sent home in plastic bags (eek). I love the PlanetWise wet bags because they zip and therefore don’t leak. I have turned on my sister and two friends to cloth diapers and had them buy these wet bags too!
I usually just take a plastic grocery bag, but I’d much rather use something that I can keep washing so I’m not throwing plastic away!
I take our pail liner that has elastic around the top w/ us. Not super practical, but I just roll it over at the top to “close” it. We travel quite a bit in the summer and would love to have a wet/dry bag!
When I’m out, I have a medium Plant Wise wet bag that I use to store soiled and wet diapers. I’ve owned several brands of wet bags for when I’m out and about and the Planet Wise bag is the best by far.
It’s gross, but in desperate times….I just roll up the diaper & shove it into an empty compartment in my diaper bag. After reading all these posts, it might be time for a Planet Wise Wet bag!!!
I use old shopping bags if we have them, if not I usually wrap them up as best I can and put them in a separate pouch in our diaper bag… than get home as fast as I can to wash everything before people start to notice the smell. We are fairly new to cloth diapers so I don’t know all of the tricks yet… as a matter of fact I didn’t even know these bags existed! Live and learn!
When away from home, if it’s just for the day, I take a grocery bag…if it’s while traveling, we use wet bags :) …you can never have too many!
thanks!
For the beginners: I have been cloth diapering for a year and nothing fancy here, we use a 5 gallon bucket with a lid, I put in a regular pillowcase and the outside folds all the way to the floor, Im still breastfeeding so no bad smells yet but I have diaper dust ive been using for fun just in case!! I just pull the pillow case out dump it in the wash and throw it in the load with the diapers, I have a second that I rotate out while washing. Its cheap and practical.
Forgot to add that I would love to try planet wise for traveling!
I will eventually get wetbags for the used cd’s when out and about. Proud to say I’m in the process of switching from disposables to cd’s now!
I am pretty new to cloth diapering and just have not been able to invest in all these little things yet, so I currently just use a plastic bag when out and about. Would love to win something like this!
I just used grocery bags for my first son or the heavy duty plastic bags that the crib sheets came in. I am getting ready for our 2nd son and really want a wet bag. I like the idea of the dry/wet bag all in one and they are super cute!
I just use grocery bags…or the trunk of the car if I’ve forgotten to restock my diaper bag. Yuck!!
I store dirty cloth diapers in a zippered wet bag while I am away from home.
I posted a link on my blog: http://melissalange.xanga.com/
I just bought my first planet wise medium bag and LOVE it. Up until this purchase, I was using a drawstring wet bag that didn’t do such a great job at keeping the smell in, especially if I was out all day long and collected a number of diapers in it. Yuck. I can’t wait to grow my planet wise stash!
When my 1st grandchild arrives and is visiting at my house, we’ll probably use gallon, zip lock bags for the soiled diapers until we can get a wetbag. I’ve also thought of reusing a big sized plastic container (I would only use it for soiled diapers and keep it in the trunk) sprinkled with baking soda or borax. Thanks for the opportunity to win a wet bag!
