TRAVELLING TIPS
CLOTHING/BATHING
Take several changes of clothing and bibs for possible car sickness.
Disposable nappies and liners are very handy while travelling. Since
it is often warmer in the car, dress the baby in light clothing. When
cooler, it is easier to place a blanket over the baby than it is to remove
the baby from the restraint and change clothes.
Take a pack containing baby soap, oil, powder, cotton wool, small
towel and wet washer in a plastic bag.
FEEDING
Never breast feed a baby while car is in motion.
Babies will require
extra feeding if travelling in the heat. For bottle fed babies, make up
the bottles and refrigerate before leaving home for a day trip. Place in
a cool bag and reheat as needed with hot water from a thermos.
Alternatively, bring boiled water in a thermos and pre-measured
amounts of baby formula in small containers. Use the water from the
thermos to mix with the formula when required. Regardless which
method is used, it is always a good plan to carry some boiled water
in a sterile container or bottle.
Do not attempt to carry warm milk because germs multiply rapidly in
warm milk.
