While taking off and while landing, the mother should breastfeed her baby. This will prevent uneasiness in the baby's ear cavities, that usually occurs due to change in air pressure.
Other than that, there isn't any usual risk. Just keep the baby warm and breastfeed well, before, during and after the journey.
