baby's first road trip?

1106krystal · October 2011

I'm due November 6th and my boyfriends family wants to take me and baby Daya to Mexico on December 2nd. They say its about an 8 hour drive from where we live. If she's born on time she'll be about 3 weeks old. I'm not to sure about taking her out of the country would it be safe for her? And me if I'm about 3 weeks pp?

Doesn't sound like the best idea imo

I wouldn't go out of the country either...my son's on his first "road trip" an hour away and he's 5 weeks old tomorrow.

I took my 2 wk old on an 8 hr road trip and she did perfectly fine! Its probably one of the easiest time to travel with them seeing how they mostly sleep.

I took my 6 wk old on a roadtrip from NoDak to AZ & he did fine because all he did was sleep but of course we took our time going down & would stay at a hotel so he could stretch and lay down but of course its a 20+ hour roadtrip. Idk about going out of the country though?
