Okay, not really alone. I am bringing my ten year old niece for assistance. My husband is worried I will be turning around in the seat if the babies start fussing and drive right off the road. No need to worry, I am ultimate careful when driving with my babies.
We did do one 5 hour (turned into 9 hours) trip before. but Gus was with me. The way there was fine, the way back a nightmare.
The trick is to drive when they are sleeping. This means getting up early, like 4 AM cause they will sleep till 7 AM, when it is time for first bottle. They then have their cereal at 8 Am and are ready for a 2 hour nap at 9 AM which means another two hours of uniterrrupted driving. Then 11 AM bottle, 12 PM lunch and back down again at 1 PM. The two hour stops make the trip much longer but truly more pleasant than driving with them awake in their carseats, they get bored and fussy after 20 minutes or so when they are awake.
Will post again upon return.
