Wow, I hope you've got a big car lol. When we went to visit the in laws for a few days we just took nappies, wipes, clothes and a couple of toys. I was breastfeeding though - maybe try breastfeeding for the holiday so you don't need to faff about with expressing etc?

Are you taking something like a moses basket or does your gran have something?

 

[princessellie]

were using a drawer lol...when u were away and didnt take much did u find urself needing the stuff or didnt it make much difference not having them?

We never really needed it. You can bath them in just water or just take one of those wee travel bottles of baby wash (doubles as shampoo), we just borrowed a towel when we were there, and there were shops nearby if we needed something. Oh just thought of something else that we took - muslins, I leaked a lot in the early days so used them to mop up lol.

I think if you can break it down to the bare essentials you'll find that you don't need that much for just a couple of days.
