I think I have a good grasp on *what* supplies to bring. But my question now is: *how* do I carry it all? What do you use? Does anyone use a compartmentalized medical bag? Rolling cart? Duffel bag?

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I have an awesome canvas diaper bag that has 5 deep pockets on the outside and 5 deep pockets on the inside as well as the center well. As time has gone by, I know what I need to bring to a certain visit and what I should always have with me. I dont' keep things in the car because my car is usually full of kids/dogs/groceries/etc!

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 First of all welcome to the wild and fun life of private practice :)I used to have a big canvas bag i got free from one of the Conferences -not advertising anything medical on the front- then end of last year I got a wonderful hardcase bag -that is not looking clinical- with dividers and many strap, and a zipped partition to hold things in place for $9.00 from IKEA. They had a choice of orange and navy blue. I went with the later one as I thought it wouldn't show the stains etc.As I am going more and more paperless with every passing day it is more than enough to carry my couple of nipple shields, tubes, syringes,etc. So it is light and durable, and was a God sent when I was 42 weeks pregnant and went to see a mom who lived in a house with three flight of stairs :)Kindly,AnnAnn Faust, MBChB, BA (Hons), IBCLC, RLC BABY AND ME LACTATION SERVICES LLC www.BabyAndMeLC.com Facebook: Baby And Me Lactation Services phone: This information is for general informational purposes only and is not intended to provide specific authority, advice or recommendations.
