Hi Ali & everyone,
We first took our son camping at 4 months old. We too took a bassinette for him to sleep in as well as his pram for basically sitting in and watching everything going on. We boiled all his bottles etc and made up a thermos and made his feeds as we needed them. I think because we were camped near the beach all the sea air must have made him sleep alot better than at home. We are about to take our 51/2 month old daughter camping for her first time and will do exactly the same, except for a bigger mosquito net for her. My son has loved camping as much as we do and we go about every month and a half, yep, we LOVE camping. He has always occupied himself whilst camping and definately does not miss the TV and all the other bits you have at home. Last year we went for 5 weeks and my husband and I discussed that you really don't need half of what you have at home, I told him I could live in a tent and be quite happy!!! Anyway let me know how you get on. The key is to relax.
