Re: traveling with 2 week old newborn

Just a personal non medical opinion. I would not take a 2 week old baby on an airplane especially not before the baby's first round of shots. Airplanes are breeding grounds this time of year for cold and flu bugs. Just remember you are a captive audience in and enclosed cabin for whomever may be sick or hacking on that plane. Its a germ swap fest in the air!
