[quote=Anonymous]We do the 7 hour car ride a lot because my ILs live that distance from us. At 10 months, DS was pretty good in the car, but we always timed it to coincide with a nap or got up super early (we left once at 3am and knocked out half of the trip before he woke up again). Plan your stops wisely. Do not drink too much water so you require a stop when your babe is sleeping. Expect that he will cry for the last 45 minutes or so back home, because that's just how it is. I always sat in the back with DS -- or, I started out in front, but would move to the back for the last leg of the trip. Toys and books were only so helpful by the last few hours. Maybe puffs or something to eat would help pass the time and provide something to do. I played a lot of peekaboo from the back seat![/quote]
