Help me pack & prep!

We’ve just booked a holiday for next month. I found out last week I’m pregnant and DS is two in a few months, so we wanted to utilise the free infant space while we can!

I like to be incredibly organised, or I find I get anxious and it takes the fun out of things for me! I don’t even know where to begin with a list of what to pack. We haven’t been abroad with DS before, so I’m worried I’ll miss something that seems blindingly obvious. I’d be very grateful for any ideas/tips!

Before anyone mentions it- DH has offered to help but I’ve delegated him the organisation of our UK break instead, because I’m a control freak 😂

Pack a little bag for the 2yr old with lots of different bits to keep them occupied. I found wrapping things up individually stretched things out but mine might have been slightly older at that point.

Remember though that the under 2 travel means the 3 of you will be on 2 plane seats with little legroom so quickly grabable stuff is best!

Oh and some kalvol incase the small one struggles with their ears on the plane!
