Traveling with 8 week old

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months

We are getting out of town for a few days before I go back to work. We will be traveling by car and staying in a hotel for 3 days. Any suggestions on what to pack for our 8 week old. She is breast fed but we supplement with formula. Here is my list so far

bottles, clothes, formula, bibs, pack and play, stroller.

Am I missing anything glaring here? Any good tips?

    burp cloth, diapers, wipes, extra clothing, socks/jacket depending on where you are going, blankets, changing station pad, something to put dirty diapers in, hand sanitizer, bath time supplies...anything you use on a daily basis including gas drops or other medication

    I grouped things by category when we traveled with him the first time:

    Diapers + wipes + 2 changing pads + ointment + hand sanitizer + Tylenol + gas drops + thermometer + shampoo, lotion, powder + 2 washcloths + diaper disposal bags

    Clothes + onesies + pjs/SwaddleMe + blankets + socks + bibs + burp cloths + hat + jacket (plan for 2 outfits per day so you have extra JIC)

    Formula + bottles + bottle brush + dish soap + bottled water in case the tap where you're going isn't good

    Toys + books + bouncer + playmat (or whatever she likes as a place to be set down)

    Stroller + carseat (duh) + PnP + Bjorn or Moby

    Extra: Monitor, camera

    Great tiem to travel.. they are so portable at that age.

    ?

    When I pack, I usually go through a normal day at home/out in my head and pack accordingly for example, when we get up I get a bottle so I pack everything related to bottle ( formula, bottle brush, sterilizer, liner for bottle etc), then change his diaper (pack everything to change diapers.. diapers, wipes, ointment, change pad etc) then get dressed ... you see what I mean? That way, I don't forget anything

    ?

    Have fun:)?
