Baby hates car rides

Does anyone else have a baby who hates the car? She used to do just fine but recently she will start fussing after being in the car for like 2 minutes. It’s miserable to go anywhere because she will fuss and cry the whole trip. I need to get out every now and then.

Same!! He HATES them. So stressful. I have the best luck if I sing to him, and/or crack the window for white noise if I’m on the highway. I’ve also heard just play white noise from an app over the car speakers. I got a soft toy to dangle from his car seat handle which helped a LITTLE, but not for long.

Yes my sons not huge on car rides either. I only travel around nap times so he’ll fall asleep on our way to wherever. We live a good 30-45 minutes from everything (stores, family, etc) on the close side and over an hour for some things... needless to say if I can’t time it with a nap I’m not going 😅

Have you tried a travel white noise machine? My baby used to hate car rides so I used that sometimes she fell asleep but now she doesn’t even need it.

I have the same problem. His grandma is about 20-30 minutes away and she watches him 4 days a week. It sounds like I'm torturing him the whole drive
