Flight for Newborn
Can I take my 3 months old in a flight?
Will there be any problem?
Sometimes adults complain of ear pain and vomiting in a flight, so I am concerned that is it safe for a 3 months old?
Yes you can travel by plane at this age also
But
Remember Baby should in active feeding while take off and landing
Feed ur baby while take off and landing time
If direct breast feed is not possible then feed with bottle or just give pacifier to ur baby
It will help.
Baby may have ear problem bcz of presure difference, hence need feed ur baby to nullify that effect.

As per AAP guidelines, it is safe for a healthy newborn to take for flight after 7days of life. Ask the airline that you want to carry feeding liquid for the baby if you are not breast feeding. Plan for feeding the baby during takeoff and landing. This is when your baby will experience the most ear pressure and feeding would relieve the pain. For more details do consult.
