Article: Very young babies usually fall asleep easily, but if your older baby follows a regular nap schedule, it's important to give them the chance to rest. You might try laying them down at the hotel or making them comfortable in a baby wrap or stroller, for instance.  If your baby has a bedtime routine, try to stick to it so your baby falls asleep easily. For example, give your baby their bottle and sing to them before laying them down. Take turns swapping nap duty during the trip. If you are traveling with a spouse or partner, there may be times where one of you stays with the baby during their nap so the other can go out. A hungry infant can become fussy very fast and your baby will probably expect to eat at their regular times. If you can, feed your baby at their usual mealtime or watch their cues so you can feed them as soon as they look hungry. It might be trickier to stick to feeding schedules if you've traveled across multiple time zones. This is why it's important to watch for hunger cues, crying, rooting, or lip-smacking, for instance. If your baby has been in the car, plane, stroller, or baby wrap for a while, spread out a blanket and let them wiggle around on it. If your baby is crawling, find a space for them to stretch their legs. Try to take movement breaks throughout the day. For example, if your baby was in their car seat for an extended period of time, let them crawl or wiggle around before you pop them into a stroller or baby wrap. If you're staying with friends or family, ask if anyone would be willing to watch the baby so you can see some sights. If you and your partner aren't vacationing with loved ones, research local babysitters at your destination and book a recommended sitter. Then, get out for a few hours and see parts of the city that might be hard to visit with a baby. For example, if you really want to have dinner and drinks at a nice restaurant or unwind by getting a massage, book a sitter for a few hours. Remind yourself that you'll have to be a little flexible since your baby is in a new environment. This might mean that you have to change plans or base your activities on how your baby is doing. For example, if your baby starts teething and you had reservations for a nice restaurant, you might need to choose a casual place or order in so you can comfort your crying baby. Keep in mind that vacation with a baby will be different from trips you've taken in the past, but you can still have fun.
