    would you take a 2 month old to Bali?

    DH is keen for Bali and has found a good deal, but our baby will be just over 2 months. We would stay in Nusa Dua, so not in tourist packed Kuta. I have just heard a few dodgy stories about illness coming out of Bali at the moment and it worries me. What do you think, too risky?

    Personally, I wouldn't go. Not with a baby that small. I know she is fully bf, so should get some immunity from that, but I would be thinking about myself or one of the other family members giving her something too.

    I also wouldn't go with a bub that small. To me Bali would just be too risky when she is so little! My DD is 6.5 months and I wouldn't even take her now ha ha!

    I wouldn't either. I don't know if I could take my kids at the age they are, but I am paranoid about things like that! I've been to Bali (pre-kids) and loved it, but while there the two friends we went with got soooo sick they ended up going home early. DH & I were so lucky not to have gotten sick.

    I have been before with no problems and also had no problems in Malaysia. You really have to watch what you eat and drink though.

    I told DH and he agreed in the end she's too young to go.
