First - you need to call relative and make sure they are fine with you putting up a pack and play or stroller on 2nd floor or room far away from noise of Seder.  (as in, not requiring you leave baby in room adjacent to dining room)

then once you know you can have baby sleep there out of the fray, you can either do:

1 (easier, I think?) arrive before baby's bedtime and install baby in pack and play upstairs and put to bed at normal time.  [of course, this will mean your hosts are fine with you doing this, or it's the plan to arrive 2 hours before meal to socialize before mealtime)
 
2.  put baby to bed at home at normal time, then transfer to carseat asleep (ha!) and go to their house, then transfer back to pack and play or stroller (whichever is easier for YOU) once you get there, hope baby stays asleep - or goes back to sleep after a quick feed

A true infant might do all of this - a 9 month old (ish) baby isn't going to be as easily transferred all these times... [/quote]
