[quote=Anonymous]Quick poll: Would you take a 4 or 6 week old on a 3 hour flight from DC to attend your sister's wedding, in May/June? Assuming a healthy full-term baby. I thought I should avoid plane travel with a baby until 8 weeks when he gets his shots, typically. I will ask the pediatrician as well, but am getting a lot of push back from family (which I will ignore if I need to) that I am being hypervigilant, etc. The older kids are in elementary school and preschool and so I know germs are not completely avoidable. Am I being silly? DH has of course offered to stay home with the baby so I can attend, which I may opt for, but I know I will not want to be away from the new baby at that point. And pumping ahead of time to build up enough for time away, plus pumping while away would not be fun at all. [/quote]
