Flying with baby

We are leaving for Florida tomorrow afternoon and I am totally freaking out about the plane.
First, I DO NOT like to fly one bit
Second, I am going to have my 10 month old with me. My stomach is in knots.
I know I probably sound like a jerk, but I cant get past the plane thing. I am afraid of how she is going to be and that she will probably sense me being nervous. The only good thing is it is a fast flight.

so, anyone have any tips for me to keep her occupied? 2 hours can feel like 3 days if she is not happy.

maybe i should just stay home Chat Icon

I flew to florida with my DD when she was 8 months old and she was much better then I expected. My only suggestions would be to try to bring a few new toys or toys she hasnt played with in a while to keep her busy. Also give her a bottle, BF or binky during take off and landing to help with ear pressue.

Good Luck! Chat Icon

Re: Flying with baby

a bottle for takeoff and landing is essential (even if its water and/or juice)
