According to the Luxury Travel Blog, travelling with a baby can – paradoxically – be less tiring than traveling with older children. More hours of sleep, breastfeeding, less need to invent dedicated activities to pass the time. The baby on the road or on vacation will simply enjoy the pleasure of being with his mother.

Also by plane? Yes, even by plane. After the first month, there is no contraindication on the fly. Try to believe, read the policies of the airlines: there are those who accept children after just two days of life, some after a week, some after 15 days. Ergo, you can do it without risk.

In fact, at three months your baby will presumably have consolidated a sleep-feeding-exchange routine (hopefully.), And it will be strong enough to face a new environment and new conditions.

Of course, going on a trip with a baby needs some foresight and a minimum of programming. First of all: to travel, to leave Italy, children need documents. For the rest, read our advice and you will see that the fear will pass and you will be able to enjoy the first few holidays with your child.

Adjust your expectations

The golden rule: accept reality. And adapt your vacation idea to the situation. You have given birth to a few months, you cannot think that you will spend all the nights bonfiring on the beach and the days on a motorbike. This year, your summer will be made up of more intimate pleasures, a few hours of sleep, maybe, but new discoveries. Even if tiring. If you accept the idea, and stop comparing these holidays to those of two years ago with your best friend, you are already a step ahead as shown by the Luxury Travel Blog.

A good strategy is also to organize holidays with pairs of friends who have small children. This way it will be more fun to get into your new clothes, and you can get help. Indeed, perhaps together you could look for a baby sitter to share to disconnect from time to time. To help you choose, read our baby-sitting advice for babies.

First of all. With a very small child it is better to have a house, or a bungalow, or a farmhouse than a classic hotel. More flexibility in times, in the use of the kitchen and spaces. If you fear the idea of having to do household chores, consider the idea of bringing a babysitter on vacation with you. What does a babysitter do? Well if you agree clearly, he also helps out at home. Last but not least: go where you have access to a washing machine. The alternative is to pack a royal baby outfit, you can’t do it.
