Travel with 2 months old baby
Hi doctor,
My baby is 2 months old and we are planning to go to Lansdowne next week. Temperature there is 21/13c which is colder than Delhi's temp which is 32/26c. Can you please suggest if it is okay to travel? Will he going to catch cold since temp there is different?

Greetings to you. You are going for sake of enjoyment. It is not advisable specially during Covid 19 Pandemic.
, Stay at home, is the mantra to be safe.baby is too small. we are having higher mortality.Why to take risk. You can always go after a few months. IT IS NOT OK. That is my reply. You have to do immunization that is more important, you have to establish feeding . So again , ITIS NOT OK

You can travel if there is no choice. Better to avoid travel till 3 months of age when baby's immune system matures. Weather change can definitely cause illness.

My advice would be to wait till baby is around 3-4 months before travelling. First covid and second baby is just born and still immunity is developing only .
Travelling naturally to a different climate region causes fever, cold and other issues. Better to avoid
