A lot of the time I just carried him in my arms anyways. <br /><br />I never got to use a bassinet on a plane, but it must be nice to have. I was lucky with my flights that I had empty seats next to mine and I lay him down on the seats to sleep. My arms would have killed otherwise! <br /><br />I'm going to keep up to date on your adventures from your website. Happy travels and thanks for the comment :)K Bron Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15568810726327536470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2888681339270658137.post-51874107440862543452010-06-01T20:46:35.554-04:002010-06-01T20:46:35.554-04:00Hi,

My husband and I are traveling in Asia and Europe with our 3 month old for 7 months and I'm reading as many tips as I can. <br /><br />We are fortunate in that we are flying thru LA a few times and can dump stuff and pick stuff up that we need or didn't think about.<br /><br />Regarding bags - my husband and I each brought a carry-on with our laptops and personal stuff and then a bag for Ripley. That was a mistake. I wish we had each brought our own bag & put Ripley's stuff in ours. I would include some mini bag that has his diapers and wipes that can be stored in the magazine pocket or under the seat.<br /><br />We checked in our stroller the entire way from Los Angeles to Singapore where we are now, and I just used the Ergo the whole time.<br /><br />The big issue with the Ergo in Singapore is that the infant insert is very very hot. I think it's made for cold wintery days. Ripley can't hold his head up yet so that's why we are using the insert. I need to figure out a way to put him in the Ergo and keep him from cooking. It's too hard to use the stroller in some parts of Singapore because the sidewalks are narrow.<br /><br />One thing that we didn't get on the long flights from LA to Singapore was the baby bassinets in bulkhead. It was a nightmare trying to book them on American. On the first leg we got bulkhead but another lady got the one bassinet they had. On the second leg we couldn't get bulkhead and it was booked by people that didn't even have babies. It was frustrating and something we need to talk to American about as we have many flights ahead of us.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />TaraTara Tiger Brownhttp://tarathetiger.comnoreply@blogger.com
