How do you keep your infant from crying while shopping?
Q. I have an 11 month old infant who has a difficult time keeping entertained while I shop. The only way I can doing any shopping is if I know exactly what I want, purchase it, and then leave immediately. Whenever I need some time to browse, my 11 month old begins to fuss and eventually begins to cry. I've always fed and changed her before our outings so those reasons go out the window. Is there anyway that I can keep my daughter entertained better while I'm doing errands? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Babies are going to cry... even if there is nothing wrong. Babies cry to relieve stress too. Not just when they are hungry or need to be changed or tired. Alot of time shopping in the morning not too long after the baby has gotten up and been fed. Not too close to nap time though : ) Sometime I bring cheerios and juice. Or I let them bring a toy... Once they get sick of… [cont.]

A. You had to claim that at the airport or the border crossing when you came back. If you're already home, it's too late.
