Diapers and Trips

When you go on a trip, always be sure to pack the essentials PLUS extras! This means that if you or your little one goes through 3 to 4 diapers a day, bring an extra diaper or two per day to ensure that you or your little one will always be protected no matter what. If you think you might need baby powder or baby wipes, bring them. If you think you or your little might need a stuffed animal and/or their pacifier(s) to keep them calm during the car ride, bring them.

So let’s say you’re going on vacation for 7 days. You or your little one would use up 21 to 28 diapers in those 7 days if you were at home, but we all know that vacations and road trips can throw a curve ball your way; ever change a messy diaper in the bathroom of a gas station or a rest stop on the side of the highway because someone had a tummy ache come out of nowhere? At minimum, you’d have to bring two bags of Betterdrys or three bags of any major ABDL diaper company’s diapers (ABU, Tykables, Rearz) for just 7 days.

This means that instead of 21 to 28 diapers for the week, you’d have to bring 35 diapers to 42 diapers. That’s at minimum three bags of Betterdrys (45 diapers) or four or five bags of any major ABDL company’s diapers. What happens if your vacation gets extended or your flight gets delayed? You’d have extra diapers, so it wouldn’t be a big deal at all!

Of course, this doesn’t account for the diapers you should have stashed in your trunk. I always keep a bag of Betterdrys stashed back there. What happens if you did an oopsie and forgot to restock the diapers in your purse/backpack and you go out? You’d be totally covered because you have your backup stash!
