I was terrified to take my son on his first flight at only two weeks into potty training. But, I trusted him and our ability to work as a team, so he did an outstanding job with this new milestone! Check out how we made this big step a success.
Our first flight with Lewis was when he was two and a half months old. I spent about two months of the time leading up to this trip preparing for his first flight, and our first flight as a family of three. Here are some details to think about when you are preparing for your first flight with your newborn.
Every new environment I found myself in during this time created a little bit of stress because society has turned this natural occurrence into a polarizing topic. I learned that the more I understood my rights as a mom, the more empowered I was, and the more confident I felt! I'm here to share this knowledge with you.Â
The thing about babies racking up those frequent flyer miles early in life is that kids change a lot, really quickly. Like, everything changes on every flight so there is no such thing as a standard routine. But the secret is, practice makes perfect and it's helpful to learn from others. So, book that flight and read on!
