Traveling With A child!
Posted on July 15, 2013
This year will be my son’s first time traveling! As a new mom, you get filled with so many mixed emotions: happy, excited, but yet a bit nervous all at the same time. It’s only normal to be nervous because you don’t know what to expect. It’s like having a child, you can hope, wish, and believe you will have a great delivery, but sometimes it’s not always the case.
Needless to say my “J” preference was kicking into gear, for all those who know about MBTI. For those who don’t, let’s just say I like to plan ahead – a lot. I went to the airline site in which my husband, son and I will be flying from, and I must say I am glad I did. It has totally prepared me for what I should be sure to bring with me and even where to check in when traveling with a baby. I then said to myself, ok, so I now know the documentation I need to bring, etc., but now what and how much do I pack for my little one.
Well thank goodness for technology. I was able to find this website http://www.babytravelchecklist.com, that provides a detailed list of all the things you might need when traveling with a child. Of course not all may apply, but it really has come in handy and has helped me make sure I have all the basics covered. Here are two tips to help you when traveling with a child. One, be sure to request or go visit the website from which you purchase your tickets, and read the guidelines/instruction on traveling with a child. Two, look for a checklist online that will help you ensure that you have everything you need for traveling with a child.
