[quote=Anonymous]An emergency situation with a newborn (& toddler) isn’t normal travel. Yes, our families are several hundred miles away, and yes we visited multiple times a year starting when oldest was 2 months. It’s actually easiest to find the time before school starts. Now in the teen & tween years, we go 2-3 times a year. We flew when we had babies, because they screamed in the car seat. The infant stage isn’t too hard if you are flexible— we co-slept, I breastfed, and we never used baby food. Mostly used a carrier/sling vs a stroller. Toddler age is harder because nothing is baby proofed. Make a quick sweep of breakable/dangerous stuff to move with you first arrive. We bought a spare car seat to leave at the grandparents’ house for when we flew in. [/quote]
