baby essentials backpack image

Every year my husband and I go camping with friends and family for a weekend July. This year it will be a little different now that we'll have a 5 week old baby with us. I just want to make sure I pack everything I'll need for her.
Answer
A mosquito net for her. A collapsible playpen for the tent. Those car seat carriers are perfect for toting a newborn around and you can easily keep her next to you with a mosquito net around it. Also if you are familiar with using a baby sling (the sarong looking thing you wear around yourself to carry the baby) I always found them invaluable to me, but you must use caution that your baby's mouth and nose do not become obstructed. Plenty of bottled water, extra gas for the stove cause if she's on the bottle those things need to be sterilized. Extra cloths, for when she spits up and needs changed. You must keep her and her area extra clean, so you don't attract ants. It's really not anymore difficult to take care of an infant while camping than it is at home. Frankly the most important thing they need is YOU. Just make a list of everything she normally needs on a daily basis and check off that you have everything before you go. And pack an extra set of everything that's baby essential, blankets, bo bo, nipples, bottles and cloths. I'm assuming you don't mean rustic camping, there is just no way to carry all you need on a backpack camping trip with an infant!

What do I need to pack in my babies diaper bag?

I am having a baby girl and I need to know what to pack in her diaper bag.
Answer
The other people gave a good list of items. One lifesaver for me was a container with small disposable bags for when a poop happens at a friends house.
Advice: Make an emergency bag and throw it in the trunk of your car. I filled up a backpack with water, individual formula packets, a couple bottles, diapers, wipes, a roll of paper towels (trust me, it comes in handy) extra clothes, sunscreen, snacks, ect. Unless you have a diaper bag the size of a shopping cart, you just can't carry everything around. My advice, take a small diaper bag with just the essentials and have the other bag for backup. Afterall, you will forget things from time to time.
