Re: Flying with infant...

we have my BIL's wedding in Michigan in a few weeks. We are flying there.

Carter will be 6 weeks old. Chat Icon But I'd rather fly for a little over an hour than put him in a car seat for 12+ hours! Doctor said it would be fine...

Re: Flying with infant...

I took my son on a plane when he was 3 weeks old. He got horribly sick after though and ran a fever. Probably from the icky germs.

I'm taking DD on her first plane ride when she's almost three months.

Re: Flying with infant...

We took our DD to NY to see family at 2 months old- two days after her shots. She did great- slept both ways.

The stewardess on our first flight was awesome- she brought me food from first class since I was nursing and announced Grace's name at the end of the flight as a first time flyer and everyone appaulded. Then she presented us with a bottle of champagne.

Great first time experience Chat Icon

Re: Flying with infant...

I have somewhere to go when DC#2 will be about 2 months old, I am not worried about her doing well just wondering if the doc would say yes/no for germs, etc...
Glad to hear others did it so early, thanks!

I just flew with ds for the first time at 8 months...I would have earlier though. I think when they are little it is the easiest time to fly with them.
Very easy to keep them entertained!

I totally agree, I am more concerned with my 2 month old picking up some sort of illness on the plane...
