I hv few questions for the India trip. Hope you don't mind answering...

1. Did you guys take the regular stroller for India trip or did you take any smaller or umbrella stroller? Which one is good? Should I buy a small stroller for this purpose? I won't be using the stroller in India, it will be just for the transit.

2. Did you take nursery water to mix formula in flight? Do we use the nursery water as it is or should I boil it before using?

3. Does babies have jet lag in India or after they are back here? For how long?

4. Do babies sleep fine in the flight? Will they be cranky during the fly time?

5. The dimensions of the bassinet looks small for my daughter. She is 29.5 inches tall. How will the bassinet hold upto 2 year old in that case?

6. Did u guys use anything like mosquito repelling cream or repellent in India? Which one? Is it safe for babies?

7. Where did your baby sleep in India? on your bed or any seperate cradle? Shalika sleeps in her crib, now I don't want to break that habit by putting her in my bed. Any suggestions?

8. Did your baby fall sick for no reasons after reaching India? Was it fever/diarrhoea/vomitting?

9. Does baby get frequent diaper rashes because of wearing diapers all the time in hot weather?

Oh God, I started off thinking of 2 questions and the list is going on and on. I'm worried abt all little things abt the travel, hope u guys understand. I very much appreciate your responses.

Enjoy your day moms, and Lots of Love to li'l ones,
CK
