How can I keep my baby on a schedule on vacation?
Going on vacation with a baby can definitely be challenging, but there are a few things that you can do to help the trip go more smoothly in terms of sleep. For instance, try to keep naptimes and bedtimes as close to their usual times as possible. You can also bring along some familiar things that are comforting to your little one such as a favorite story from the bedtime routine. Another thing to think about is sleep environment – if your baby typically sleeps in his own room at home, then if possible, having him sleep in his own room on vacation will also be best. Finally, remember that this is a vacation! If his sleep schedule gets thrown off then that’s ok – you can readjust when you go home.
