Diaper bag of a 2nd or 3rd time mom: Her purse with a few diapers thrown in...and hopefully baby wipes.

The putting away of baby clothes by 1st time mom: Folded neatly with all matching pieces together. Each drawer perfectly organized according to pants, shorts, shirts, long sleeve and short sleeve, socks...etc...
The putting away of baby clothes by a 2nd or 3rd time mom: Stuffed in the drawer that once was the designated place for such items, but is now a jammed mess of random articles of clothing. (The drawer is just going to be emptied AGAIN in a day or two by older siblings anyway)
