actually depends on the age of the child, 0-3 months a 85litre bergan will JUST fit what you take with you, 3-6 months you'll possibly get away with 45l, at 12 months you'll likely get away with the response pak.
i'm not kidding here, your first outing will be so heavily loaded you'll wonder exactly which army you're moving kit for.
Yes that sounds about right for the first one
And then the second one
we used an old laptop bag
I used an old rucksack, about 30l I think, used to carry one with me all the time with water, waterproofs, gloves, hat, little waterproof sheet, some food, bino's etc. Adding a couple of nappies some, toys and other small assorted items didn't seem to be too much of a problem. It worked for three of mine...
I have the perfect solution for you - doesn't get more tactical

Well now i've retired i have one of these going spare !
Can't see it fitting in very well at the mother(sorry) "parent" & toddler group though...

So far I think I will be getting a Finnish gas mask bag and an armour plated pram
Chris do you want me to bring my Swedish gas mask bag to the next Suffolk meet, for you to look at? Now I have the response pack, I'm thinking of selling the gas mask bag on.
Colin is yours like this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-S...01?pt=UK_Women_s_Handbags&hash=item5d3a0e0d0d If it is I would be interested as mine is grey/blue and I don't like it, I reckon mine must be for the navy or air force
I used to go out with a foldable mat in a pocket and a bag of wipes, a couple of nappies and bags in another. Spare bottle and carton of milk. Granted he could hold his head up and I stuck him in a baby carrying rucksack. He loved looking at the trees.
Now he's walking (albeit very slowly) which is much more difficult to deal with because everything takes ten times as long and he won't fit in the carrying rucksack.
I have one of these: http://www.kiddicare.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/productdisplay0_10751_-1_142338_10001

I've got a Downeast 1603 frame - was thinking of getting something to strap the kids to it - like a kifrua cargo panel - one way to justify the stuff I 'need' to the missus
Oh how wrong you are. I have brought my daughter up since she was 4 months old, now I'm no looker but I have never been offered it on a plate as many times as when I was out with my daughter or at nursery etc. If I was that kind of bloke I would have had a ball. Thankfully I'm the faithful type and the missus knows it. She used to laugh and say I could tell when I'd been propositioned as I looked terrified!
As for the bag, just get a small rucksack as its out of the way and stable on your back. It leave both side free for carrying baby through narrow gaps in shops and your not at risk of taking out displays in shops or peoples dinners in a café whilst trying to manage baby and pram. It also doesn't look like a manbag.
When baby is older the rucksack can still be used to carry changes of clothes, toys and snacks etc. Basically you don't end up with a redundant piece of luggage but rather something you can take out on walks and bike rides etc. I still have my rucksack and today the missus is using it as a day bag as she is off doing a spot of navigation on the hill. Last weekend it was a toy carrier when we went on a trip to visit family.

1+ to this, our first outing after my daughter was born we took like 3 changing bags and half the house in the shopping basket underneath the buggy !

I used to use my 5.11 rush 12 when we went away for the weekend. It looked the nuts with all the toys in the molle webbing and pouches on the sides for bottles and dummies.
When going out for short trips I use the response pack. It the perfect size for 2bottles, 3 nappies, wipes, bags, change if clothes and muslins. I use a bandanna for a changing mat.
My son is 6 months and I take him out for 2full days a week so my partner can work at home.
This is enough for 5 hours. Anything more and I tend to just leave if in the car in a carrier bag.
It's far too easy to fill a bag with tonnes of stuff you don't need.
There is a great book called 'commando dad'. I'll bring it to the meet next weekend.
Do you know what sex the baby is yet?

You're spot on there. When my little lass was tiny she was the ultimate chick magnet. I recall heating her bottle up in a cafe once. I had waist length hair, a ZZ top beard, wearing an M65 jacket and oil stained jeans. She was cooing and tugging my beard. A college netball team were entranced by her - within three minutes every seat in my booth was occupied and I had the last girl sat on my lap. Normally they would have crossed the road to avoid me

There's a picture we'd like to see Hugh.
