Hey Sherie, almost snap here!!! My brother gets married in country vic late oct 4-6 weeks after bubs arrrives here in Perth!!. We did alot of travelling with DD when she was young, and we found it quite easy. It's particularly easy if you are bf, to help with the popping of ears you simply feed then going up and down in the plane (or use a dummy). Also for ease of amount of luggage, we arrange for the pram to be loaded at the boarding gate, you go to special check in for this, and as bubs is so small he will be able to sleep in the pram too instead of having to take a portacot.

Have fun and best of luck
