[quote=Anonymous]Would I do it? No. Can you do it if you have the support system and some things set up? Sure. Assume you will not breasfeed and dry up before you go since pumping would suck. Work on getting baby on formula and bottles after a month and assume she'll take a bottle easily. Write up and notarize power of attorney for medical decisions for a grandparent. Since a fever in a newborn usually leads to a spinal tap. Make sure grandparents know and can handle the possible round the clock care. Have them visit overnight with you and do bottle feeds then. Buy travel insurance. This is what I would do if I had to leave for some reason. For vacation of take the baby and a nanny or a couple grandparents. [/quote]
