When travel = 15-18 hours travel time, minimum 3 flights and 7 hour
time diffference? 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. |

![]() 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. not quite sure what you want me to say, as it is an obligation, I'd be thinking as soon as you've recovered from the birth, to be honest babies are easier the younger they are when flying as they are much more likely to sleep for significant proportions of the time. I'd definitely want to do it before 6 months, avoids all faff with solids! Anne |

Assuming all was well with the baby, I'd probably take the baby out as soon as I felt like managing such a trip. They're easy to travel with when they're small like that. Best wishes, Ericka |

I don't think mine will be ready for a trip like that until she's in college. Amy |

If it's in the US, then when you can travel comfortably. If outside the US,
then once some immunizations can be given. -- Sue (mom to three girls) "cjra" wrote in message oups.com... When travel = 15-18 hours travel time, minimum 3 flights and 7 hour time diffference?

I had a much shorter trip at 3mos and it was no big deal. They are easy at this age because all they do is sleep and eat and want to be held. It was much easier then when he was 15mos. -- Nikki Hunter 4/99 Luke 4/01 Thing One and Thing Two :-) EDD 4/06 |

We did this at 5 months. (From SFO to MUC). This part was easy. We also toured the Italian Alps for 3 days. This was the hard part, as Clara hated the car seat, and would howl endlessly. Larry |

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.

Thanks for all the comments.
Since I will have no vacation time after I return to work after maternity leave, DH and I were hoping to take the baby from the US to Switzerland for FIL (who can't travel and is not that well) whilst I was still on maternity leave, around 8 weeks. But after a very stressful 2 weeks there at 15wks pg, I was thinking we might be nuts to consider it and was having a mini meltdown at the thought and DH agreed to put the thought out of his mind for awhile. But then upon saying goodbye to FIL, I realised we will really need to go ASAP.... I want to wait til round one of shots are done, but I also want to have a week at least of recovery *after* returning before I go back to work. And of course we need the time to get both passports, which we can't exactly request before the baby is born ;-) |
