can i purchase baby milk and nappys in the local shops?
Answer
Better to take milk and nappies with you. I can remember wasting a lot of time looking for somewhere to buy nappies. Nappies don't weigh much, and you can easily cut down on other stuff to make sure you have room for these two essential things. Make space for them. It will be worth it. Cut down on clothes instead. You can always wash some while you are there. Take a tube of travel wash with you. It's concentrated detergent. You only need a tiny bit to wash a sinkful of clothes. You can get travelwash designed to wash baby clothes too - it's kind to their skin. But if you can't find it, then a little baby shampoo works just as well for all but the most stubborn of stains.
We have had holidays backpacking with our children - one with our first child at the age of 4 months and some more as they grew older. Each time we travelled with the bare minimum of luggage, but travel wash and my boobs (in your case formula) are two things we always took. For holidays like that we started out with just enough nappies to get started and bought more as we went along, but that was a necessity because we were always moving around. It wasn't always easy to find nappies.
But during a package holiday, when we could have taken enough for the whole holiday, we ran out, and, as I said in the first line, spent a lot of time looking before we found any. That was in Majorca. It's best to take enough to last the whole time and then it's not a problem. Have a good holiday.

What should I put in my carry on for a 20 hour flight with 4 hour stop?

So early next month I'm moving to Australia from Ireland and will be flying for approx. 20 hours with a 4 hour stop in Abu Dhabi. And I have some questions...
1~ What will be worth putting in my clear ziploc bag? Like should I put a mini shamoo in there or not bother because obviously there are no showers on the plane. Should I put my toothbrush in a separate ziploc bag or the same one? (I know the airline I'm flying with gives you toothpaste and a brush anyway)
2~ Do wipes count as a liquid and are they allowed in my carry on? Like a pack of face wipes and a pack of baby wipes.
3~ Do I have to declare hair oil, perfume and a regular sized shampoo that will be in my suitcase because they are liquids or not?
4~ Since my carry on will be above my head and I don't want to be reaching up or getting someone else to move so I can get it, can I have a little makeup bag like in front of my feet to put my hairbrush, my "monthly items", hand sanitizer etc. in?
Thanks ⤠And I just put it in this section because I haven't gotten any answers in the travelling section plus I'm presuming many of you have flown before so yep â¤
Answer
1. No to shampoo. Yes to a travel size of dry shampoo. Put it in your liquids bag just to be on the safe side but I'm not sure if its technically a liquid. Yes to travel toothpaste, no to toothbrush if they're giving you one anyway. And yes put it in the same bag, just make it easier on yourself.
2. They do not count as liquid and yes you can put them in carry on, but I wouldn't bring a whole pack I'd just stick a few in a ziplock and call it a day.
3. No.
4. Almost all airlines allow two carry on items. Bring a cross body purse for your essentials and boarding pass, passport etc and put bigger/heavier stuff in the other bag (I recommend a backpack.) make sure you grab your book or magazine out of the bigger bag before you sit down.
Bring a tiny bottle of mouthwash, mascara, and facial & hand lotion. Trust me you will be glad you have it when you land! Go to the bathroom 30 mins or so before landing and use your face wipes, then put on some lotion, mascara, and illuminator or blush so you don't look like a zombie when you get off the plane. :) recycled airplane air is evil. Also, hand sanitizer, tissues, and cough drops or gum are great to bring.
Good luck with your move!
