I am a new mom about to go on a small road trip (driving) with my breast fed baby. Any tips and advice on how to make this easy? What I need to bring, ect?

So so so cute.

I just did a 5 hour trip and we stopped every hour and a half to feed bubs. I just made sure to wear a maternity bra and a nursing top so I could whip it out easily. I fed her once in the car and then once again at a road stop with a muslin to hand to hide myself while she latched.
So much easier than faffing with a bottle!

I think breastfeeding on any trip is much easier than carrying all the equipment needed to prepare formula bottles!😝 the only thing you need is some nursing bras and tops to have easy access to the boob

Just stop every couple hours stretch a little check baby’s diaper make sure she’s all clean and then I just breast in my car when on the road so much easier

I just got done with a 10 hour road trip with my newborn and I am breastfeeding as well.
I wore a nursing tank top and fed my baby in the car. I was more comfortable and I know my car is clean rather than taking my baby into some store. I have a small car so changing him was difficult but I brought a towel that I put on the seat and changed him in my back seat.

I did a 13 hr trip with my 2 month old a few weeks ago. She basically slept the whole ride. We would get out every 2 hours to stretch, diaper change and feed. 😁
