out and about with CDs question

Hi everyone,

This may be kind've a piddly question, but I'm wondering ... do any of you mamas have issues with odor, etc. carrying around your dirty CDs when you're out and about? I ask mainly because I don't drive and wouldn't be able to just stash the used ones in the trunk or backseat of a car till we got home, we'd be carrying them around in a bag all day on public transit potentially.

Thanks for your input from this 1st time CD-ing mom.

I have a waterproof bag that came with my diaper bag (a Land's End one, love it) that I keep wet/dirty diapers in. I've never had an issue with smell when the wet bag is sealed inside the zipped up diaper bag, even with some of DS's toddler poops! Check out some diapering sites for a good wet bag, or heck, I've used a ziploc in a pinch. As long as it's sealed inside something and inside the diaper bag, you should be fine. You can also put some baking soda or drops of EO if you're worried about it though, I'm sure.
I have a wetbag and I usually just keep it inside my diaper bag. I have never had any major stinky issues. It seems like it would stink worse if locked in a hot trunk all day! LOL!
I have a drawstring wetbag and have never had issues niether. If there's a solid poop, I shake it off in a toilet if one's available, though.
I have a zippered wet bag that I love. I carry it with me in my diaper bag, and I've never had any stink issues.

I keep a wool wetbag in my diaper bag and I never have an odor problem.
I just use plastic grocery store bags. I take enough with me that I only put one or two diapers per bag. I just tye the bag with the handles.

We use a wet bag and it holds the odors in.

We also use a wetbag in the diaper bag and have no odor problems. If I recall, I read about a mama that takes a wipe and sprinkles it w/ lavendar EO and keeps that in the wetbag and she said that masks ANY smells that may creep up. It also keeps her bag smelling nice and pretty

Thanks for the responses, everyone -- I didn't even think of using essential oils to keep everything smelling pretty!

Makes me feel a lot better about CD-ing on the run (though my DP might be a little hesitant still when it's just him).
