There's so many things to consider with each one! I think you are probably right @regberdaisy - it depends on how the LO likes the car :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drive-or-fly#post-239269 Sat, 28 Jul 2012 13:14:14 +0000 pastemoo 239269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We took a 1500 mile road trip when he was 7 to 8 weeks (9 day trip). It was fun!<br /> I don't know if it would be better to drive or fly since we haven't flown with LO yet, but it was fine driving.</p> <p>Just... you have to stop for 30 minutes every time LO wants... sometimes that was 1hr 15 mins, 2 hrs 30min and once 3 hours. Remember to make yourself pee every stop or you'll never arrive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drive-or-fly#post-239268 Sat, 28 Jul 2012 13:14:12 +0000 kokobee 239268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i say fly! 12 hours is a long time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drive-or-fly#post-239258 Sat, 28 Jul 2012 13:01:28 +0000 Arden 239258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're going to have the same dilemma next Spring. </p> <p>In May, just under two months after this Sesame is due, we'll be moving from Florida to Michigan. </p> <p>We can't change the dates, it is set in stone, so I'm starting to think of the best way to handle that 20+ hour drive with a two month old... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drive-or-fly#post-239166 Sat, 28 Jul 2012 11:02:07 +0000 regberadaisy 239166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We drove 6 hours to NYC when our LO was 2 months. Not a big deal! She did really well :)<br /> I might wait till s/he is here before you make the decision. See if they like the car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drive-or-fly#post-239130 Sat, 28 Jul 2012 09:56:45 +0000 heffalump 239130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Id be too worried about the germs in an airplane when my lo is that teeny tiny. We kept her out of public places until she had her 3 month shots, so id rather deal with driving. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drive-or-fly#post-239095 Sat, 28 Jul 2012 09:30:17 +0000 mediagirl 239095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are flying to the in-laws when M is 2.5 months old. They live 12 hours away and there is noooo waaaay we would want to do that drive with her at this young of age!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drive-or-fly#post-239093 Sat, 28 Jul 2012 09:29:21 +0000 chopsuey 239093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We drove 3.5 hours a few times when Lo was that age.. Misery!!!!!!<br /> Fly! Definitely fly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/drive-or-fly#post-239057 Sat, 28 Jul 2012 08:57:13 +0000 photomommy 239057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband and I are due on September 22. Every year for Thanksgiving we meet his family in NYC. It's some of the most fun we have all year, and are hoping to still make the trip. We are thinking of driving the 12 hours in 2 days instead of flying. Baby girl will be around 2 months old (hopefully a little more!) by then. What would you do? </p>
