We are going to turkey in just over 3 weeks, my son will be 11 months has anyone got anything they would say are essentials for holidays? I’m starting to stress
I’d prioritise 6 things 1) making sure baby is comfortable when on the move - good stroller, baby carrier 2) entertainment on the plane. Now when they’re very mobile, it’s much harder to keep them in a seated position on the plane 3) sleep - arrange for a cot if not co-sleeping 4) think about how you’re going to do bath, We ended up buying an inflatable bath and it’s been great for travel. Other people take babies with them in a shower but I’m just too worried baby may slip out of my arms. 5) any medication + spf - e.g. calpol etc if needed. 6) health insurance for the baby. Enjoy your holiday!
