Decide the time of day for the move

Parenting can be a rewarding challenge, even in the best of times. Having your baby on a schedule is vital. When you’re making your move, figure out a time that fits baby’s schedule. And remember, long drives should be done at night when the baby is already asleep.

Moving long distance? Know airport restrictions

Getting to the gate on time is a minor concern when going on a plane with an infant. Every airline has their own policy regarding carriers and strollers. It’s important to research before booking a ticket with a specific airline. Find out you baby will need to be secured in a car seat or if they can sit in your lap. If breastfeeding, double-check with the airline and TSA about the appropriate way to transport breast milk.
