When Is It Ok...?
Posted: 07-24-07 08:02am

Hiya Ladies,

I was just wondering, when is it ok and safe to take a baby on a plane over sea's? The reason I ask is because mid July next year, my mum, my dad, my nan, and me planned going to France next year in mid July, Paige would be going on 10 months old then, would it be safe for her to fly on a plane? It's only an hour flight from where I live. ??

Did you take your baby on a plane? If you did how old were they and was it ok?

Thanks ladies.

I guess you shold ask your doctor but I don't see why it would be a big deal,especially when it's only an hour!

10 mths is totally fine, unless they have health problems of any sort i woldnt see why not. joseph was 11 mths old when i flew from florida to germany. Depending on your child u may need to buy a seat for her to put the carseat in, unless she turns out to be a good kid that will sit in your lap. joseph wouldnt sit in my lap but of course that was 11 hrs total on 2 planes. Just the dr might suggest something to give her to make it easier with the ear popping etc.

my sister flew with my niece when she was 2 weeks from california to hawaii. they suggested she wait until she was 6 weeks but said it was fine at 2 (she lived on the island and didnt have a choice)
talk to your doctor but im sure 10 months is fine.

Thanks, I'll talk to a doc closer to the time when it comes to booking the flights etc'. I'm so excited to take her away next year with my family, and she ain't even here yet! Laughing

oooh I want to try so bad but hubby hates cooked spinach and that is WAY too much for one person, I'll have to hold on to the recipe.
