Can I take my child on an early trip? When should I go?

This is an automatically translated article.

There is no set timeline or rule for what age is appropriate to take your baby on a trip. Many families take their baby on a trip right after their baby is born. However, it is best to let your baby travel at a place close to home, not too far away.

1. Should parents let their babies travel early?

The infancy period is a transition period not only for the baby but also for the whole family. The family begins to adapt to a new phase with a lot of changes. Establishing a new diet and sleep regimen can be a real challenge, even if you're just staying at home and not going anywhere. After giving birth, both mother and baby need a lot of rest. This can be difficult to do while traveling.
When bringing babies to crowds or public places, there are many pathogens and the possibility that the baby may be infected is not excluded. When traveling with a baby, you will also need to protect your baby from the extremes of outdoor temperatures and ensure that he or she can get regular breast milk.

2. 5 useful tips to apply when traveling with young children

2.1. Pack the necessary items in convenient bags The items you need to prepare to travel with your baby include:
Diaper wipes Plastic bags Snacks (for mom and dad) Blankets Baby toys 2.2 Travel during the day when there is sunlight. When it is morning, the whole family's movement will become easier, more convenient and safer. Babies can also open their eyes to admire the surrounding scenery and enjoy nature, the joy of traveling with parents. Conversely, when it is dark, movement will be difficult and the baby may feel sleepy at night.
2.3. Borrow or rent furniture to use at your destination You should bring all the necessary items, but they should only be compact and easy to move. For bulky items such as tables and chairs to eat at the park, or convenient beds, you can rent them at tourist sites. Don't forget to bring a baby stroller, it will make the whole family's movement much easier.

2.4. Please choose the travel time as the time when the baby sleeps You should choose the travel time when the baby sleeps so that both mother and baby can rest while sitting in the car
2.5. Always keep essentials close to your reach Children can vomit, spit, cry, pee while mom's hands are always busy because she has to hold the baby. So all items you may need to use should be kept within reach of mom or dad, whether in the car or at a tourist destination.
