Re: going on cruise with a 14 month old

We went when Christopher was 8 months old.

We didn't bring the car seat, but we brought the stroller and a booster seat for dinner.

I brought:
sheets
swim diapers
3 outfits per day (usually included a bathing suit)
toys
diapers
blankets
wipes


He was younger, so I brought more babyfood and formula, but since Cadi is on table food, that makes it a LOT easier!

I don't think there is anything you can give for seasickness, but Christopher was fine, and it was rough somenights!

Re: going on cruise with a 14 month old

DS was 14 months when we went on our cruise last year.

We brought:
Diapers
Wipes
Sunscreen
Baby Food (DS was on some table food but he was still on baby food too)
Swim diapers
Small toys and books to keep them entertained
An umbrella stroller (easier to get around in and takes up less space in the room)

FM me if you have any questions. Like I said DS was 14 months too when we went on a cruise last year...Chat Icon

Re: going on cruise with a 14 month old

We went on a cruise with DD a few weeks ago. She was a little over 13 months old.(now 14 months)
We had such a great time! We want to plan another one for next year.
We went on Carnival. The only annoying thing was most of the public restrooms didn't have changing tablesChat Icon

Bring a lot of diapers (I almost ran out), swim diapers
sunhat
sunscreen
water shoes for the pool and beach
day clothes, dinner clothes
bathing suits
etc.


DD had no issues with getting seasick. I was nervous but she was totally fine.

Have Fun!!!

I have a huge list at home. I went when Andrew was 23 months old.

It was sooo much fun and def would do it again.

Andrew didn't get seasick because it wasn't rough at all but he did get car sick in PR. I ended up buying him those wrist bands with zero medicine in them and they worked perfect in Tortola and St. Thomas. He didn't get car sick and the ride was worse then in PR.

Have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Oh and bring her favorite stuffed animal or blanket. I did and I brought a travel mobile and attached it to the porta crib. It worked out great.

Also a bottle brush, your own dish soap. This came in handy every night when I would wash out his sippy cups.

I did not bring a booster because they supplied that for us and they had a highchair if we needed it.

We also brought a DVD player for dinner but he was older so I don't know if DD would be into that but it def helped!!!
