Hi all, we're all booked up to take our little one (10 Months) out to visit his grandparents in Vietnam later this month...
We had all our jabs, but due to his age, he isn't allowed the Typhoid or Hep A, so I already have concerns about the water out there !
Has anyone been that direction and have any advice on feeding/travelling to/from...
We will primarily be in Ho Chi Minh (Saigon).
General precautions were already thinking is to boil water and keep a store of pre-boiled and cooled to make up bottles, as he is still on formula, had to abandon breast feeding due to complications early on :(
What about local fruit and veg, he loves strawberries and oranges, but guessing most products will be locally grown, using questionable water sources, so washing them will only take care of the outside... is that me being over cautionary?
At the end of the day, we can always obstain from the fruit and just go with pouched food, which should be readily available (I hope).
Other questions really stem around, is it worth taking our pushchair, last time we went out there, the pavements were mostly used for motorcycles and chairs by the locals, so not really much room to push an oyster 2 around anyways...
We have also tagged 2 days in Dubai on the way out, any advise welcome on that country too, especially In relation to the HEAT!
