our baby's first holiday abroad (what I packed vs what we actually used)

Our baby's first holiday abroad! ✈️ We took our 4 month old to Portugal for his first flight, first pool swim and a week in the Algarve with the grandparents. Plus everything I packed for him versus what we actually used. Welcome to Hares House 👋 This past year I got pregnant, got engaged, had a baby, got married, launched my own business and we're about to complete on our first house (a full renovation!). Life has been life-maxing, so I'm bringing back vlogging to take you along for all of it: motherhood, business, travel and the house renovation. In this vlog: → Packing for a 4 month old (I packed the entire house) → Baby's first flight → Our Airbnb tour in Vilamoura → Seaweed beach fail + rough waves in Albufeira → Carvoeiro clifftop walk, caves and the cliff jump → What I ACTUALLY used for a baby on holiday (less is more!) 👶 BABY HOLIDAY PACKING: WHAT WE ACTUALLY USED ✔ Travel cot, travel pram and car seat (your free baby items on most flights) ✔ 2 packs of nappies for the week (I packed 3) ✔ 2–3 swimsuits + reusable swim nappies ✔ A vest and a sleep onesie for every day ✔ 7 muslins + 7 burp cloths (used every single one) ✔ Baby monitor, Owlet sock, bath thermometer, bottles, milk bags, breast pump ✘ Trousers, evening outfits and socks: never touched them Top tip: if your Airbnb has a washing machine, pack half what you think! 🏡 NEXT VIDEO: we complete on our first house and show you around the full renovation project.
