Creator's Key Takeaways

I want to share with you guys my packing mistakes that I made for my daughter's first cruise

I brought too many bags so if you've seen my other video about quitting carry-on only

I brought too many diapers and that was including using Diapers at my parents house too

I brought way too many supplies too many um I brought a 30 day supply for a 19 day trip

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Pack only five outfits for yourself on a cruise, especially in high humidity areas
✓Bring disposable straws instead of reusable ones for a child with feeding issues
✓Vacuum seal diapers to save space and avoid overpacking
✓Limit toys to a few small items as children may not play with many on a cruise

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Overpacking bags for the trip — Limit the number of bags and consider using a suitcase to reduce carry-on load
Managing feeding tube supplies for a child — Bring only necessary syringes and accessories, and avoid overpacking gravity bags
Keeping a child safe and engaged on the ship — Use a stroller and bring a few small toys, but rely on ship amenities like playgrounds
