We are taking our annual trip in August (the joys of being a teacher on a school year calander ) It will be DH, DS 3 1/2, and MIL, myself and the newest addition. The youngest DS for his first trip was 9 months old, but that was for the millenium on New Year's Eve and that trip definately had it's own unique issues. My questions are.....1) sunscreen for the baby. We are all VERY fair and burn quite easily. When DS was an infant, I just kept him out of the sun, kind of impossible in Florida in August. So they make safe sunscreen's for babies under 6 months old? 2) We will be bringing a stroller with the infant carrier for the baby. Almost every sroller I've found is navy blue or black. I'm afaid my poor child will cook in the sun/heat even with the sun shades closed. Note that we only plan on being in the parks in the am and then in the evenings, but it's still hot and sunny even before noon. Any suggestions for kind/brands of travel system strollers? 3) Given that it will be very hot and I am not slender , would a baby sling or snuggli be worth getting? I had one for DS and HATED it because it had no back support. I am also worried about cooking the child against my body if they were in a sling stype carrier. Any suggestions? Thanks!!
