Eurotunnel

[booreeve]

We are travelling over to france with a 7 week old on the Eurotunnel - should I be worried about pressure in his ears or anything...advice appreciated...

just back from Pris on eurostar - hope u have a fabby time,

imo nothing to worry about but for reasssurance take a dummy/bottle/something to suck on if u worried - justa train not pressurised contained environment, but faster than rail here tho

Thanks

i travelled with a 6.5 week old.
he was fine. much easier than traveling with an older child.
are you breastfeeding? that will help you both.

they also have baby changing facilities on train, well ecquipped clean, plastc mat with paper disposable paper to put over it, plastic bags for nappies etc and nappy bin. located at end of carriages well signed too

baby change in ladies loo in gard du nord too

in paris staff were really helpful pointing out lifts etc - so exciting for u have a smashing time

Unfortunately, assuming it is Eurotunnel as opposed to Eurostar, the toilets and baby change are not quite so luxurious! Mind you, you are only on there for just over half an hour.
There is no pressure at all - it is like being on any other train. It is fantastic - you just drive on and you can move about either side of your car within the carriage. One tip well worth bearing in mind - unless you are the last car within your carriage, make sure you get anything you need out of your boot BEFORE you drive onto Eurotunnel. Unless you are the back car, the cars are parked so close together that most cars can't open their boots - something we learnt the first time as we'd prepared a picnic to eat on the train but we couldn't get to it as we'd put it in the boot and the car behind was told to park so close we were not able to open the boot!
Have a lovely time and don't worry about the train journey - it'll be no probs at all.

No, no pressure problem in the tunnel
