So, if all goes well, the new baby will be about 3 months old when we go to WDW in December. I've been wondering-- what do you all bring to hold the baby when you're either getting dressed, taking care of the other kiddo, or just need to put the kiddo down. Do you bring a bouncer? Boppy? Travel swing? Or do you just put the baby down in the pack and play?
 
Our first trip we had a 6 week old, we also drove.
I didn't bring anything, we had the carseat (since we drove), in our room, and the stroller fit, not folded up. So we had those two things. She slept in bed with me, we pretty much hit the parks from opening to closing, and while we were out I wore her in a sling 95% of the time.
That trip we traveled with friends who had a 10 week old, they brought their portable swing....never used it, not even once.

If you are wanting to save room, bring nothing. Baby can go on the bed, floor, pack n play for a week.
 
I didn't put my 3 month old on the floor. Although we flew, my parents drove and brought our bouncy seat down. I was glad to have it. It allowed her to look around the room and play with the toys on the bar above her head. I also had a crib size quilt that I put on the bed when I wanted to lay the baby down.
 
We took our baby when she was 3 months, and we packed her playmat. It folded up nicely in the luggage. The toys are detachable, and we took whichever ones she seemed to like best.
 

We took our youngest when he was 5 mos. We flew and brought his car seat (the baby bucket/carrier kind). I also brought a blanket to use as a playmat. So, between the car seat, the blanket, the pack n play, and DH, there were plenty of options for places to put the baby. We also had the stroller in the room, so that was another option.

Good luck and congrats! :goodvibes
 
dd was 6 months when we went and she spent some time in the pack and play. It may just be me but I cannot leave my two year old with a baby in a bouncer seat (even just for the time it takes to pee) because she leans on the back and I am afraid she will launch a baby one day :eek::rotfl2:
 
I wouldn't bring anything other than the carseat/carrier at 3 months, but we fly. If we drove I might also bring a playmat.
 
We either put them in the stroller, on the bed (with pillows around) or we took turns getting ready.
 
A small blanket and put them on the floor. They cant fall anywhere and will be quite safe.
 
Awesome. Much less complicated than I expected! Thank you all so much :)
