moving house, tips needed for how to make it go smoothly witha 10mth old?

[alibo]

we are moving house the friday before christmas, mad i know! anyone out there moved with a baby? ds will be 10 mths and would appreciate any tips on how to make the move stress free for him, and how best to make him feel settled. thanks in advance

Get his room sorted out asap, or at least a corner organised with a few familiar things in it. Buy a small musical cot toy NOW and get him used to it, so his cot feels cosy immediately. If you can, rope in a friend or babysitter to take him out of the house altogether for a walk or a drive during the height of the activity. If you can afford it, get a premium level of removal package (eg they pack and/or unpack for you) leaving you more time for ds. You will still be run off your feet and will still have to make sure the unpacking instructions are being followed, but at least some more of the donkey work will be done for you that way. Good luck; Ive done a house move with a. a 2yo and a 10mo, and b.3 kids while also 7.5m pregnant. That was insane but we live to tell the tale. I'm not moving again though until it's time for me to be wheeled out to the Dunroamin Retirement Home
