[quote=Anonymous]Chances are it'll be fine (hence all the people chiming in saying they did it and things turned out ok for them so you will be fine too.) but no, I wouldn't. There's a small but significant risk in taking the baby-an unvaccinated (or very recently vaccinated=not yet immune as it takes weeks to kick in and only with the first round in series of vaccines) newborn and also a small but significant risk to a 6 week postpartum mother. Plus it's a long flight probably with a connection if you're going to CA, plus it's during flu season. So no. Think how terrible you'd feel if your newborn did wind up getting rsv, whooping cough, the flu, etc. [/quote]
