Taking your first plane ride with a baby and wondering what to pack in your carry-on? Here are nine helpful things to pack with!

#1: Nursing pillow This is super helpful if you’re flying and it gives the baby a place to rest comfortably. I stow mine in the bottom of my stroller when I’m in the airport.

#2: Baby carrier  This was very helpful to have when I flew alone with Logan and needed to do things hands free. I’m so glad I had it!

#3: Muslin blankets They are breathable and nice to have if the plane is cold or you need to nurse the baby.

#4: Diapers and wipes Pack more than you think. Much more than you think you need.

#5: Changing pad This is nice to have to lay down on a public changing table

#6: Change of clothes You never know what kind of messes will happen

#7: Medicine I prefer to put this in my carryon bag for the baby in case something happens. You don’t really need to bring medicine unless you’re worried baby is getting sick and will need it.

#8: Hand sanitizer

#9: Feeding essentials Bring anything you may need to feed your baby (formula, bottles, age-appropriate snacks, etc.)
