WWYD- Travel with a 3 month old
Almost every year my extended family likes to get together for a big trip somewhere in the Caribbean since my step siblings live all over the country. This year , the trip will be in Aruba and they planned it in December.
Would you go and travel with a 3 to 4 month( depending when he is born) old or would you skip it this year? A part of me really wants to go , but another part of me is scared to travel with such a small infant.
Edited for my terrible math skills, would be at least 3 months

Re: WWYD- Travel with a 3 month old
I would...I would also think its easier to travel with an infant than a toddler....baby cannot walk yet so you have control over that...
I want to go to a beach now

Re: WWYD- Travel with a 3 month old
I would def...at that age it is much easier. We are taking DS to the Bahamas and he is 2 and I am so nervous-what if he has temper tantrums, gets off his schedule, etc. He's a good toddler but he is a toddler and you don't know what to expect

Re: WWYD- Travel with a 3 month old
I would definitely go...they only get harder to travel with when they are mobile...you'll need lots of stuff, but it will be worth it!

Re: WWYD- Travel with a 3 month old
I was in this situation when preggo with my first. I could not imagine what it would be like. We ended up going and it was great. Much easier than traveling with dc now.

Hubby and I are still planning our trip to DW in Feb. will be a little over 3 months old. We made plans with another family to go before I found out I was pregnant. I would definitely go on with your plans...

Re: WWYD- Travel with a 3 month old
I would go. My parents took me on my 1st international trip when I was just shy of 6 months. No problems.
I would just take the necessary precautions regarding the water, etc. . I think a big concern can be babies getting earaches because of the air pressure on the plane so ask the Dr. about this.

Re: WWYD- Travel with a 3 month old
i guess i'm the minority, but i wouldn't have taken DS to aruba at 3 months old. we took him to ocean city, md at 3 months old, but i personally wouldn't take him or #2 out of the country at that age.
have fun!

Re: WWYD- Travel with a 3 month old
i would definitely go! traveling with a little infant is MUCH MUCH easier than with a more alert, mobile baby/toddler. i would take advantage of the opportunity!!

Re: WWYD- Travel with a 3 month old
Totally. We went to Florida with DS at 3 months and on a cruise at 8 months.
You will have to get DC a passport tho.
