Going out with a baby or toddler is a muscle training activity for me. With her growing bigger and heavier, it is impossible to carry her without the help of my trusty 3G Boba carrier, but going out for a day trip or anywhere for more than 3 hours, I will usually bring along a list of essentials with me.
This is my list of essentials for going out with a baby or toddler:
Picture this image - me carrying all the above and a almost 10kg baby boarding the bus, going up/down stairs, shopping with bags of stuff from the shopping spree and sometimes even continue to shop for grocery in the supermarket (with additional basket for grocery).
Don't I look like an octopus with 8 arms?
This is my list of essentials for going out with a baby or toddler:
- 3G Boba carrier - This is where baby likes to be when we are out. She enjoys shopping with me in this carrier. I tried two other carriers before but they can't make her stay quiet and comfort as long as the Boba. I don't know what I'll do if I've not chanced upon this carrier.
- Combi Well Comfort stroller - This usually acts as the stroller for the bags and shopping cause Ayra prefers to be carried. But lately I try to let her stay seated in the stroller for as long as I can so that she will get used to it. This Combi stroller is the lightest with one-hand open/close system I found when I'm shopping for one. My fist one was by Capella and it was too heavy for me to bring out alone when I'm taking the public transport.
- Big bag filled with essentials for baby and me
- 2-3 pieces of diapers, pack of wet wipes and a changing mat
- 2 clean hankies
- 1 set of clean clothes - in case of any unforeseen situation
- 1 pair of socks and leggings - due to our humid and hot weather, I usually dress Ayra in shorts or dress, leggings come in useful when we are inside the shopping mall
- Wet wipes for the mouth, hands, food and anything that needs to go into her mouth
- Milk powder container
- My wallet and stuff
- Feeding bag - If it can't fit into the big bag, I'll have it in a smaller bag where I can hang on the stroller. This content milk bottles, drinking cup and hot water flask.
