Tips for having to take a road trip with a baby my grandfather just passed away and we have to travel to Texas my son is 4 months old
Help I feel clueless
@djcjej luckily for me he loves being in the car I'm just scared I'll forget something
Oh okay. Well I think it will be alright. It isn't going to be smooth just because you are taking with a baby but it'll be alright.
One of you could sit in the back as well just so the baby can see you and it will be easy access as well.
Well we fill the bottles with the water beforehand so we only have to put the formula in there. We bought a cooler so they wouldn't get hot.
Make sure if you are breastfeeding then to pump every 2 hours if you do not stop during the drive. Bring lots of batteries so you can pump during the trip.
We just drove 14 hours with a 7 month old...we tried to leave at a time when we knew he would sleep the longest and then go to sleep for the night. We took him out everytime we stopped to let him move around, change his diaper and everything. Is your baby breastfed or bottle fed?
Most baby that age sleep a lot but if you stop often and take the baby out to get fresh air and feed. He should be fine 🙂
@elfghostqueen of course diapers, wipes, grooming items, baby wash, extra clothing, any medicine the baby takes, the items to clean the bottles, wash cloth, diaper cream if you use it, blanket, burp cloth, extra firms just I'm case it spills or something, stroller if you need it.
