Lap infants are easy peasy on planes. Gate check your stroller/car seat. Burn some points for more leg room and/or aim for the bulkhead. Get an inflatable nursing pillow if baby is nursing. Or bring some bottles. Have baby eat or suck on a pacifier for descent to help ears. As for colder climate just pack a nice cozy bunting

M1 hit it all I think. The pacifier is a big deal to avoid ear aches.

Get the bassinet on the plane. Try for night flights. Don't expect to watch any movies and she’ll be right.

I recommend buying a seat. Beyond being safer, it is also more comfortable and known to your child (like a car trip but Mom and Dad are in the back). Just make sure car seat is FAA approved (most are)

Use a bottle for ascent and descent to help with ear pressure.

Buy some new toys.

3 hours or less is easy in lap with passy and bottles

If a melt down occurs just over feed them. Bring up back up clothes in the carry on/diaper bag for everyone (you/SO/baby)

Any tips for hard launching partners on social media? For context, I’ve (Indian American female) been dating my white American boyfriend for 3 years and we just got engaged after two years of convincing my parents. They are very happy and excited now, but I’m scared shitless about being ostracized / judged by my extended family and Indian community in the US once I “let the cat out of the bag” on the engagement news. I want to be proud and confident about this but could use some moral support.

I’m so scared to let a relationship that gives me anxiety go because I’m 36 F and feel like I’m not going to find anyone else. He’s not a horrible person, but he can be inconsistent. When I bring it up to him he says he’ll try harder but then always goes back to default. I stick around because I think it’s more a personality trait and not that he’s not interested in me (maybe I’m naïve). Could really use some encouragement from a bunch of strangers.
