[quote=Anonymous]OP - I don't know what your circumstances are, but I just want to say that I would not travel by plane with a newborn. I had an emergency that required us to travel when DS was 10 days old. Our ped advised against a commercial flight due to the germs on planes. Your child has no immunity and the odd of catching something are high. If he/she ends up with a fever, a spinal tap is mandatory. I ended up not flying commercially as a result of the information I received from a lot of sources (ped included), but did make the trip. And, the trip was hard. We were trying to establish breastfeeding, my c-section incision wasn't healing properly, I was in a daze from lack of sleep, and 1000 other things. I had no choice in making the trip and would say that it's not worth it unless absolutely necessary.[/quote]
