Packing the perfect suitcase for a weekend with baby

So, are you ready to go on a weekend getaway with your baby? Don't panic, we're here to guide you through this adventure! Packing the perfect suitcase isn't rocket science, but it does require a little organization. We'll help you sort through what's essential and what can stay at home. Let's go, let's have a great weekend with your mini-me!

1. The diaper bag: the essential ally

The diaper bag is a bit like the superhero of your getaways. But it still needs to be well-stocked! Here's what you need to pack:

Essentials not to forget

• Diapers: Plan on twice as many as you think you'll use. Especially if you're the type of person who wants to change your little one every time they make a suspicious noise.
• Wipes: for little accidents, sticky hands or a little monster face.
• A swaddle: ideal for everything from sun protection to an impromptu blanket. Don't hesitate to opt for the Sofia cotton gauze swaddle , soft and practical!

The extras that make the difference

• A small first aid kit: some bandages and disinfectant, just in case.
• A toy or two: for those unexpected moments of boredom.
• A change of clothes: because a little accident can happen quickly!

2. Clothing and accessories: anticipate the climate

Before you pack those adorable little outfits, think about the weather! Whether you're heading to the mountains or the beach, it won't have the same effect on your suitcase. Here's how to get organized:

Baby clothes

• Wear clothes that are appropriate for the season: bodysuits for summer, sweaters for winter.
• Socks and a hat: even in summer, little legs can get cold.

The essential accessories

• A hat: to protect your little head from the sun!
• Sunglasses: Yes, even babies can be stylish!

3. Food and meals: leave nothing to chance

If you're breastfeeding, no worries, but if your little one starts eating baby food, here's what you need:

For breastfed babies

• A breast pump and bottles: so you're ready for anything!
• Nursing pads: for small leaks, you never know!

For bottle-fed babies

• Pre-prepared baby bottles: stock up before you leave.
• Baby food: choose the ones your little one loves, otherwise good luck with the meal.

4. Take care of yourself: don't forget the parent!

And yes, a weekend with baby is also an opportunity to treat yourself. Here are a few things not to forget for you:

• Comfortable clothes: you want to be comfortable, not like a model!
• Your beauty essentials: even a little swipe of mascara can make a difference.
• A book or magazine: for quiet moments when baby is sleeping.

5. The return: how to put everything away properly?

Once the weekend is over, it's time to tidy up. Here are some tips to avoid chaos:

• Sort everything as you go: this avoids finding a bodysuit in a corner after three weeks.
• Use storage bags: ideal for separating dirty clothes from clean ones.
