If you are travelling by air try to feed your baby on take off and landing to ease ear pain. Bring nappy rash cream, bags for dirty nappies, enough nappies for the trip and infant paracetamol for relieving pain and fever. Bring hats and sunscreen for your baby. Babies under six months should be kept well out of the sun and babies between six months and a year should have only very limited exposure, especially between 11am and 3pm on hot days. Get removable window shades for car windows to shield your baby’s skin and eyes from the sun.
