Hi
As its the first time abroad with baby i've no idea if supermarkets will stock certain baby items and as luggage allowance isn't a great deal it would be ideal for me to buy these items when we arrive instead of trying to fit a whole 2 weeks worth of nappies and swim nappies, etc in suitcase.
Can anyone tell me if supermarkets will stock the following, I would think so but if anyone can confirm that would be great:-
Nappies (junior 5) such as huggies
Swim nappies again huggies
Baby wipes
Dummies?
Milk Full Fat, i never know what would be classed as full fat as they are diff by the colour on carton, also i read somewhere on here that the milk does go off very quickly so i'd need to buy a new carton everyday??
Any help with this would be great.
And if there is anything else i should know about taking baby abroad then please do let me know.
Thank you
J
i'd advise taking a few swim nappies as i didn't see any in supermarkets. nappies, i bought what they had on offer, not huggies, they have sizes on packet so its not difficult to get right size. full fat milk does go off pretty quickly as locals tend to use uht milk, this will do as a substitute but if you'd rather stick to cows milk, which i did i'd advise buying it first thing in the morning when it has been delivered and get it in the fridge asap or fill a sink with cold water. i took drinking cups/bottles for my daughter and cleaned them in boiled bottle water to clean them with although nhs direct, i checked as i was a little worried, said you can boil the tap water and its perfectly safe. my daughter was only 6 months old on first holiday and i took couple boxes of baby rice as alternative to mashed veg in restaurants. you will find dummies in resort but the teets are quite big and rounded, best to take them with you. i also found wrist/ankle bands to ward of mozzies helpful, bought those in boots at home. hope this info helps, if you haven't gone allready. have fun!!
