Summer vacation is here and the family and I have so many eventful and fun days ahead of us. But wait – I’m pretty sure everyone does, not just my family. Let’s talk about the must-haves for a family trip and why it’s something special to my heart. It has been in my family since I can remember and I’m pretty sure it’s been in many other households for decades. Let me tell you why I use my mom’s go-to since childhood with my own family now.
Kids are out of school and the planning of road trips, staycation or vacations begin. Many of you have been planning your family vacation since last year. So the whole family is already prepared to take off. We start buying all the must-haves for the trip. Like your shorts, tops, flipflops and sunscreen amongst many other items that are needed for the trip. But the one thing we might tend to forget is what if one of the family members get an upset stomach? Do we plan for the days that just don’t go as planned? I know I have to always pack my Pepto Bismol just in case.
Growing up my mom always had Pepto Bismol in the medicine cabinet. I still have memories when she had an upset stomach, she would always take her Pepto Bismol. Memories of my siblings and even myself getting an upset stomach from eating way too much of our favorite snacks. I still hear my mom saying, “I told you – do not have that much. But you don’t listen, haha.” But that’s being a child, right!? My mom would always read the directions before giving us anything. I highly suggest you do the same. I know that it would always make us feel better.
Another moment that I will never forget when I was a child. My parents had mentioned to us that we were going to visit Las Vegas. I had no clue where that location was because we really never traveled that much when we were younger. My mom quickly got everything ready for me and my brothers. I remember my mom carrying a separate bag for any emergency we had along the road. We were halfway to Las Vegas and I remember I wasn’t feeling good. All I remember is that I told my mom that I was feeling nauseous and out it came, that magical pink savior Pepto Bismol. It wasn’t long after that I was excited and ready for all the fun we were in for.

We all grew up on the traditional bottle but luckily Pepto Bismol is now giving us an option of new Liquicaps. They are easy to take on the road. Trust me you will feel so relieved if your stomach gets upset. You will be the hero of the day.
Let’s start making some unforgettable memories with Pepto Bismol!
Omg this is so great! We always had this in the medicine cabinet too and we still do! I really works great!
OMG I always bring some pepto too! Seriously you hope you don’t need it, but you definitely don’t want to be stuck without it!
My husband ALWAYS brings Pepto on our trips. I always laugh at him because there is almost always a pharmacy near by that he can pick some up at. He refuses to leave home without it.
Oh yeah, this is a staple in our home. My husband especially has stomach issues, so I always pack this when we go places. Just in case!
It never fails when we go on a short vacation my system will get all out of joint. Thank goodness for the pink stuff. Works everytime.
You definitely have to have some of this around for any sort of common stomach issues. It really does the trick quickly!
Definitely a must-have on vacation. You eat so many foods that you wouldn’t normally eat that something is bound to affect it and you don’t want to spend your whole vacation in the bathroom!
This sounds like an amazing product to take while travelling, you never know what could happen
This stuff has gotten me through a few hard times. I used to get car sick but loved to travel with my husband when he was a truck driver over the road and having this made a few trips to Michigan possible. I love it!
Oh great! This is what we need when we travel. I always bring different medicines for those. Glad I can bring just this for those symptoms.
Gut health is real and it’s a good idea to always be prepared. Thanks for sharing!
I also make sure to take a medicine kit with us when we travel because you never know when you’re going to need those medicines.
First – how cute is your Mom bag? Love that! Second, yes to always having Pepto on hand! At home and on the go – its a life-saver when needed!
This is a product that’s a staple in my cabinet!
I thing this is a great product to always have on hand too. You just never know when you’re going to need this. This is one product I’ve been using for years.
Pepto Bismol is a summer staple in our house. The kids are always eating things that disagree with them so I always keep this on hand.
My mom has an acid issue. She always travels with Pepto Bismol or similar products.
We don’t have Pepto Bismol here in the UK, but I’ve used it when I’ve been in the US and it worked wonders!

Pepto is essential for traveling. Nobody wants to find themselves on vacation with tummy troubles. Pepto is a staple in our household too.
I never leave behind my first-aid kit with the basic meds in it. Gotta be prepared at all time especially when in vacation.
I don’t think that I should ever travel without it. My stomach does not like it when I change up foods.
We always take Pepto with us when we travel! It is definitely a good things to keep on hand at home and on the road.
pepto has always been in my first aid kit and has saved me a few times.
