I know a routine is not for everyone, but for those who do follow one, even vaguely, how do you plan long car journeys etc with your baby?
We're travelling from London to Swansea (about a 3.5hr journey) tonight and I was hoping to time the journey for when baby sleeps (7pm-11pm) as she usually sleeps very well in the car and we wouldn't have to stop for feeds etc.
When we reach the in-laws, I was hoping to feed her and put her down in her travelcot quickly and hopefully she would settle easily as she does at home.
Should I have timed the journey for the daytime instead, but risk her sleeping too much?! I don't want to upset her night time routine, it's going so well. But I couldn't think of a better plan. Panic...!!
