Default How early (what is the earliest age) would you travel with a baby?

Assuming of course the trip would not be planned until after the baby
is born, but this wouldn't be a holiday/pleasure trip but a familial
obligation.


Did a trip like this at 6 months and it was awesome. We could have done
it comfortably as early as, um, say 2 months old. I was fully
recovered, breastfeeding was well-established (I leaked like a hose for
quite a while, would have soaked a crate of breast pads by the time we
got there), baby was healthy and had had first round of immunizations
etc.

Don't forget to take your own recovery into account.
