Italian term or phrase: Tracolla mamma
I'm translating an text that is made up on short phrases and not very much description to help me.

I've come accross "Tracolla mamma" and I'm not sure how to translate it.

I found this on amazon http://www.amazon.it/Peppa-Pig-Borsa-Tracolla-Mamma/dp/B00H8...

which makes me think it's not a nappy bag as I first though...

Any suggestions?

Many thanks!

diaper bag
Explanation:
I think it corresponds to what we call diaper bag. I'd leave the mamma part out

More specifically, over-the-shoulder diaper bag

neutral  Dr Andrew Read: There's a slight problem here as in the UK (where the asker is) we call ' diapers' 'nappies', therefore we'd need 'nappy bag' if it's for a UK audience. I hope the asker reads this!
