A 3-week round trip with a 7-month-old sounds like an exciting adventure! Here are a few recommendations to make the journey smoother:
Frequent Breaks: Plan regular stops (every 2-3 hours) for feedings, diaper changes, and short naps.
Comfortable Seating: Ensure your baby has a comfy seat or travel cot for naps during the journey.
Packing Essentials: Bring enough diapers, wipes, baby clothes, formula (if needed), baby food, and bottles for the entire trip.
Car Entertainment: Use soft toys, soothing music, or baby-friendly videos to keep your little one entertained.
At 7 months old travelling in the car shouldn’t be that difficult. Just make sure you have supplies and changes of clothes for bubs easily accessible for your journeys,
We always plan our trips with regular stops and try and start our travel off at nap time. Lots of stimulation after lunch which will help with any afternoon naps during travel
Also it is a good idea to stay at family friendly places along the way that have facilities for washing and cleaning and taking care of any hygiene needs.
Yes plenty of breaks and make sure you have distractive toys connected to the car seat. Whilst one adult drives, the other adult may want to sit beside baby
Always be well prepared and organised for every possibility. Always take breaks and stay well nourished and hydrated. Always have a plan and adhere to it and lists really do help!
Take your time and have lots of rest break not just for your little one but also for you. I personally don’t like driving in the big cities as it’s harder to pull over for a quick pit stop.
