🧳 🍼 Baby Essentials for travel 🍼🧳 (<12mo)

⭐️• Portable crib- halo

⭐️• Portable crib sheets

⭐️• Portable changing pad

⭐️• Diaper bag

⭐️•Portable White noise machine (deemed *essential) you can usually find these for not that much $ and when you need them, oh man do they make a difference. Bite the bullet and get one

⭐️• Dog poop bags w key chain dispenser (we like the eco friendly ones) for dirty diapers!! So useful when at a guests house. You don’t want to leave a stinky trail behind you!! #momhack (*essential if you want to still have friends lol)

⭐️• Baby car mirror – for road trips (perhaps a bougie essential, was a straight up essential for me because I would get anxious if I couldn’t see them and know they were doing okay.

⭐️• Stroller – We bought a travel umbrella double stroller for our trip. We were lucky enough to get one for a good price on fb marketplace. We didn’t want to ruin our expensive stroller from travel. See what’s out there and weigh pros and cons to see what’s best for you.

⭐️•Travel bottle sterilizing bags for microwave – I bought these on amazon. I used these ALL the time at work to sterilize pump parts!! You don’t need many, each back last for something like 30 microwave sessions. One pack is probably more than adequate.

⭐️•Portable mini cooler for foods and bottles. Make sure to bring reusable ice packs if You will be able to refreeze. Lots of hotels have a freezer part in mini fridge.

⭐️• My husband and I like to use the strap on baby carriers for those in between stroller times

⭐️• Pacifiers – we use wubanub

⭐️• Bottle cleaning brushes and a small travel dish soap (esp if staying in a hotel).

• Bring enough diapers, wipes and formula to last at least until to make it to wherever you are staying. Packing a few extra diapers and onesies for unexpected delays/situations are a smart choice in my book. Never know when you might have a blow out diaper or major spit up.

• Consider bringing less clothes if you have access to washer and dryer. Some hotels also offer a laundry service that will wash items & return. Check with hotel beforehand for cost and turn around time. Can be on the pricy side $$

• Boppy – nice to have if you’ve got the room (now recalled :/)

• bring a couple outfits per day. The light onesies are so nice in hot weather. You can put each days outfits in a zip lock freezer bag and just grab a bag for each babe in the morning. I made separate bags for my son & daughter. Made packing so much easier, and I also compressed the air out of the bags so the clothes took up less room.

• Baby toy straps so you aren’t constantly picking up toys off the ground – get silicone ones. My kids love the silicone straps by themselves!

•Food containers- for snacks or baby formula to dump in bottles

🚗 🍼For Car Travel🍼 🚗

• Stop when you need to feed the babes. Esp when everyone on board is getting cranky lol.
