TRAVELLING TIPS
43
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.
