Flying with 4 month old
I will be flying with my 4 month old to Florida the end of July. Is there anything I should be bringing on the planed besides the obvious(Diapers, formula, bottles etc)?
Also are you allowed to bring infant tylenol on the flight?

Giver her a bottle on take off and landing to help with her ears popping! Other than that I think you have it covered. It's so much easier to travel with them when they are that little. Have fun!

Also a pacifier to help with ear-popping and try to keep up for an hour or so before getting on plane so will sleep on plane.

Re: Flying with 4 month old
I carried Tylenol and saline spray with me... you just have to put them in a separate quart sized bag and pull them out for the TSA agent (just like you do for your own "liquids")
Other than that, if there is some toy / teether DC is attached to...bring that. And I'd put in a small blanket...in case the air conditioning is too much...
Then just your regular diaper bag stuff, bottles / formula...

Re: Flying with 4 month old
We did the exact same flight two years ago when DS was 3 months old.
I agree with everoyne else to give a bottle or nurse on take off and landing and bring a pacifier if you use one.
Also, for the airport, you can bring your infant seat and stroller right to the gate and they will check it there. I also wore DS in my Bjorn and it was easy to get around like that!

we went to DS with my son when he was 3.5 months. He slept most of the flight. I used the bjorn and it was great.
