Things to consider when taking a long journey with the baby
Going out with babies might seem pretty easy. Get him in the stroller and get out. But this is not what it seems. There are two layers of clothing per head, at least two feeding pads, two different breastfeeding covers, three or four pieces of cloth, wet wipes and other materials. When we go on a long journey, we need more than this.
Don’t stay hungry with the baby!
Yeah, we wrote it up for the baby. It was just a fraction. We’ll give you a list below. However, do not leave yourself hungry while taking food ingredients for your baby. Especially on train trips, they allow you to eat in the sleeper compartments. Don’t forget to get yourself a meal. Because you will not have much time to eat at the stations and have a meal.
Be sure to take fast, fast-consuming food according to the length of the train journey. Quick-cooked noodles, quick soups or similar foods. Cold sandwiches can feed you too. Don’t forget to buy drinks :)
We also think that you will sleep with your spouse during the night travels on train trips. In this case, such as coffee can open your sleep with content that can accommodate drinks. There are hot water on trains.
You have a limited space in vehicle journeys. However, there will be areas where you can stop. However, fast food can still get you a little bit comforting.
You may not need to carry a lot of food as you can meet your food need in these areas on boarding and ship cruises. However, according to your needs rich in content, but easy to carry food can choose.
Entertainment is important
Do not forget to take your baby’s toys during the journey and keep the materials to entertain yourself. We can think that half of the journey can be spent outside the country, especially when the country changes. In this case, the internet on your mobile phone or tablet will be inaccessible. You can choose books.
We recommend that you choose toys from which you can also connect your child’s toys and that there will be no trouble to fall on the floor. In this way, you will get rid of the trouble of washing with clean water and minimizing your need for cleaning and searching for clean water in your journey.
Your baby needs are important
Here’s a list of things that you and your baby will need during the journey. You can tailor this list to your needs. The list was experienced and prepared for travel with a 7-month-old baby for a minimum of 12 hours of travel.
