Getting up at 1am for the airport... change babies routine ?

Baby will be due their bottle at 6am, but waking up at 1am, what do you do on this situation? They will think it's morning and want a bottle, shall I give it them or try to stick to the 6am one ? We take off at 6am so would be handy sucking on the bottle for take off but can't see them waiting !
Baby is 11 months

Just see how it goes, if they want a bottle at 1am I am sure they will still have another at 6am

Routines go a bit out the window on holiday

Hope you have the best time!

I would give them the bottle whenever they want it.
I used to fly a lot with my little one and tried to give the bottle during take-off. (They must suck on something during take-off anyways, so it works well - timing-wise). However, if she needed it earlier, she got it!
As pp said, routine goes out the window while travelling. Don't be surprised if the feeding time completely changes- the good news is that they settle themselves back into the routine just as easily when you arrive home.

Agree with PP - no point in trying to plan these things, as whatever you plan for, they'll likely do the opposite anyway. (Said from bitter experience)

Just wing it and give a bottle if and when they want one.

We transferred our baby from cot to car seat and he stayed asleep. Worth a try?
