Re: Taking Baby Abroad
We took our daughter to Pakistan when she was 2 months old (the airline was Emirates).... I popped in a pacifier for her to suck on during take-off and landing so pressure on ears was not a problem. I stayed there for 4 months, she was absolutely fine mashaAllah :)

Re: Taking Baby Abroad
You don't go to French Polynesia with a baby, you come to Vancouver :@:
Re: Taking Baby Abroad

french polynesia is *exactly *where you go after baby- to rest, relax, recuperate and rejuvenate yourself. think about it- the beach, the blue, blue water, the fresh air... dammit, I want to go too!

Re: Taking Baby Abroad
Lol SGC! 
Well it’s a case of what Khumar was saying the other day… can’t remember the exact phrasing she used… but it’s like when people get excited about going to Paris and i’m all “ok.. and big woop” kinda thing 
And Vancouver is beautiful! And awesome for snowboarding… i need to get back into sports… i miss it! 
Sayyma, i’m going to check with the airlines that we will be using for either destination to see what their regulations are… thanks for the info! 
Re: Taking Baby Abroad
van city is beautiful, i agree, but its i still say its weak competition for french poly. hoooowww about you send me to french poly and you can head out to van city with the baby? i think that works really well. :p
Re: Taking Baby Abroad
The only concern I'd have about international travel with an infant is the risk of exposure to things like Polio and other diseases which the baby is not yet immunized against. Best to talk to your pediatrician about this and also look into the travel info for the country you want to travel to - get all advice on prevention before you go.
