that is the only suggestion i would make too. Make sure you stop and stretch. Christmas 2010 my family drove 28 hrs with a total of five sttops. Not a good idea

I don't have much advice. I traveled by plane for 5 hours with a toddler on my lap at 6 and then 10 weeks. it was hell dealing with her and my nausea. Like another said, stop often and stretch your legs.

All I can suggest is frequent stops to strech and when you are not driving, lean the seat as far back as posible to accomadate you with space to switch positions every now and again.
