Does a diaper bag count as a personal item on Delta?

Personal item should be of proper size to fit under the seat in front of you. A jacket, umbrella, diaper bag, duty free items, and assistive devices (wheelchairs, walkers, crutches, strollers, child restraint seats, etc.) do not count towards your carry-on allowance.
