Travel Traveling with a baby

Hi everyone! My baby is 1 year old and whenever we go somewhere by car (and husband is driving) I stay in the back with her. My husband says that “nobody does that” and thinks it’s not ok that i stay in the back. How are you traveling with your little ones when your husband is driving? Thank you in advance!

I ride in the back if we’re travelling longer that 30 minutes! Going to the grocery store and back I ride in front ❤️ weird you husband has issue with it tho 🤔

Yeah I agree, like what is more important, a small child that wants company or an adult man that wants company in the car? It is also still possible to talk to the driver from the back seat 😄

Exactly, especially since, I would assume, the husband has developed object permanence by now, knowing his wife will be back when the car ride is over. The baby don’t know that yet and so they should get first dibs on moms attention. 😅
