  1. everythin u use for the baby in a day


  2. Oh... good luck with that. I would pack everything....that's hard.  

  3. If you are travelling with a young baby you need to plan ahead carefully, and only take what you will actually require with you.

    Breastfeeding a small baby whilst travelling reduces the amount of extra implements you need to take. When flying, breastfeeding is also invaluable for pacifying a small infant, particularly during take-off and landing, as this can cause ear discomfort.

    The best solution for bottle-feeding babies is to use a ready-to-feed formula, available in handy cartons or disposable bottles. These can be offered at room temperature, but if your baby prefers warm milk, you could use a travel bottle warmer.

    Take more feeds than you think you will need for the journey, in case of delays.

    Stock up on baby wipes and disposable bibs to clean up any messes and try to avoid anything that melts, such as chocolate.

    Your baby may of course be interested in sampling your own airline meal, but if you prefer to eat in peace ask for your food to coincide with your baby's sleep time, or when another pair of hands are free to take over.


  4. Ohh thats REEEALLY hardddd....

    I suggest bringing

    -a second set of clothes....

    -maybe some food or water

    -diapers about 7-10 just in case

    -bib

    -pacifier maybe 2 if one gets lost

    -toys, maybe 5 or so. depends on the baby.


  5. diapers

    little plastic bags for the dirty diapers

    wipes

    infant tylonal (what ever brand you use)

    blankie

    if theirs any toys they play with like a stuffed animal or toy keys

    2 extra sets of clothes

    ***just bring what ever you pact in the diaper bag but pact enough of eveything that you use in the amount of time your on the plane.

  6. for baby

    enough bottles for flight. (not premade though)

    a small tin of milk

    (please note, these are only if you're bottle feeding)

    12 nappies (overestimate just in case)

    a change of clothes

    a few small toys

    a blanket in case it gets nippy or to help with sleep

    for you

    snacks

    light entertainment

    change of top

  7. Heyy, you will be coming right near me!

    I live in RI..bout 45 min from Boston.

    You will need everything it takes to take care of him.....

    Bottles, pacifier, formula/breastmilk, diapers, wipes, clothes...extra outfiits, light clothes for the day time it's pretty hot over here, light blankets, toys, CAMERA! :), changing pad..everything you use on a daily basis.

  8. In addition to baby's things, don't forget a change of clothes for yourself! There will be spit-up and diaper leaks for sure if you don't take anything!

    Take lots of extra clothes for baby. Zip-top plastic bags for soiled items.

    Food, formula, bottles, pacifiers...whatever you use in one day, take a few extra. Have a few blankets in case it is too cold on the plane.

    Bibs, burp pads, and a few toys to keep baby entertained.

    Lots of diapers, a changing pad, and plenty of wipes.

    Take a pack of disinfecting wipes for wiping off surfaces that baby will touch (like public changing tables...ew).

    Don't forget to take a few basic medications: Infant Tylenol, Mylicon or other gas drops, teething meds like Orajel or tablets (if baby is teething), and diaper cream in case of rash. That would be horrible for all of you is baby was to get sick on the plane and you had no Tylenol for fever or anything like that!


  9. -Diapers

    -Bottles

    -Baby food (if 4 month old babys eat food yet unsure sorry lol)

    -Change of clothes

    -A warm blanket, planes can get chilly ( also take the one the baby actaully sleeps with at home as it will be familier and comferting)

    -The babys faviroute toys, so it feels comferted and semi entertained

    Try and do lots of things before the flight so you baby gets worn out and is more settled on the plane

    Good luck! your brave
