If you are planning a few days of fun, whether in the country or abroad, and therefore have a baby at home, you probably know the following dilemma: whether to travel with the baby or leave him with dad, or with grandparents if there is such an option. You can decide from a considered and responsible place, you should first ask yourself if you are breastfeeding (then traveling without the baby can be more problematic), do you think your child will cope well with the breakup then for a few days and if you will deal with
it .
Will be able to survive the breakup, but still not sure whether to travel without him or not - here are some points that may help you reach the important decision: Should you travel with the baby or without him for vacation
?
● Because you're going to miss him - your baby will probably miss you these days, and even if a few days of freedom pass quickly, you may prefer that he be with you, nonetheless.
If you feel that longing will outweigh your enjoyment - take it with you.
● The smaller the baby, the less "burdensome" the vacation is - if you share this determination, take the little one with you on vacation.
At younger ages you may need to deal more with anesthesia during the day, but you will not need to find attractions, which are definitely important as you age.
Just take care of a comfortable space for it wherever you are and you will be tidy.
● Because the holiday will do good for the baby - how do you say, change place changes luck?
It is possible that the change of location and atmosphere will be better with your baby and he will sleep better and be more relaxed than at home, just as yours will have fun in a few days of respite from everyday life.
Against traveling with the baby
● Because it's not really a vacation - if you feel you are enslaved to the baby and you can not enjoy while caring for him, not even for a moment (because the partner is less cooperative because you will not be able to release), bet on interest.
● Because it seems that the character of your baby will not allow him and therefore enjoy - if it seems that the baby is related to his familiar environment and will not respond well if you move him away from it, or if it is clear that he will not be able to sleep in a bed that is not his own bed. This.
● Because you are planning a schedule that will not work out with a baby - which is perfectly fine. If you want to go out late, enjoy extreme experiences or just have a drink on hand 24/7, the baby will probably fit in less with
the vacation you are planning.
What's good for you and your baby and what the needs and options are for you. Make the informed choice and remember that there will be many more vacations, and what you did not choose now - you can do the exact opposite next time.

The Jama app was established with the aim of addressing mothers of babies from birth to age three, and centralizing for them content, activities, tips from experts and videos that will accompany them throughout this challenging period.
All the content in the app "grows" together with the baby and is precisely adapted to its developmental stages, so that the mothers receive only what is relevant to them and interests them at any given moment.
The Jama app is the place for mothers in Israel to meet and get to know other mothers around them, and create new and exciting friendships in the fascinating journey.
