We are going away for a week. I have the nuby prep machine and have sorted some things but I can't help feeling like I have missed something. If anyone has any handy tips for travelling and being on holiday with a baby I would love to hear them!
Thanks x

Red book with all details of vaccinations
Thermometer
Calpol/Nurofen
Travel insurance

Place to sleep in

How do you travel? If you fly do have a good number of nappies, formula and spare outfits with you in case of delays. And spare clothes for you as well.

Definitely a change of clothes (or two) for the adults. Travelling is not fun with the smell of milk sick all over you, not to mention poonami.

Babies travel really easily. Ok I breastfed and coslept which made life super easy but don't overthink it but I did used to book places with access to a washing machine eg motels with laundry on site, just in case!

I presume you've already got their passport (and GHIC card too, actually).

Honestly it’s easy.

Nappies, clothes, wipes and calpol are the basics. Sleeping bag and monitor, depending on what the set up is.

Sling is far better than a pram for wandering round places, and I’d make the most of adult places (galleries, nice restaurants ect) before your plans are focused on playgrounds.

I really wouldn’t bother with the red book - photo the vaccination page if you feel the need.

Remember babies are born everywhere, so it’s no weird for them to be anywhere in the world, and you can always buy supplies.

Hi, are babies ok to travel to Europe before their 16 week vaccinations?
