I am going back to work in oct..looking for infant care near my place but totally no slots and i managed to find 1 slot near my workplace. However the travelling time is slightly more than 1 hour and involves taking bus and train. Any mother out there also have to bring bb on long journey everyday? can you share how you cope and any tips?

One of my friends who is in a similar situation as you shared that she was a bit apprehensive travelling a relatively long distance with baby on public transport but as she got into the groove of things and got comfortable with the routine, she realized that it wasn't too bad. She used the baby carrier and carried baby's essentials in a pouch which fits nicely into her huge work tote bag. On the buses and trains, people are always kind to her and she hasn't had to stand in her journey yet, someone always gives her a seat. She also considers the extra time she has with her baby in the mornings a blessing. On days when she feels like taking half a day off, picking up her baby is a breeze and she can head out into town immediately.
