[@blackstardhall96]

Girlllll, I'm due in february as well and already have a one year old girl. //\\

[@emilypogoda1484]

We just got back from a cruise with my 9 month old! What a ride that was 😅

[@amyjrp]

We’re traveling to Turks & Caicos in May! Bubs will be 23 months old for his first plane ride! ❤ thank you for all of these tips & tricks!

[@MsAngelique1984]

Traveling to Hawaii with a toddler and a 6mo old soon!

[@louise_g5265]

As a former flight attendant, i would strongly advise against using the boiled water on a flight as I noticed a number of times that the tanks were not cleaned regularly! I never order a hot drink as a passenger on a flight for this reason!

[@BethGraceMoore]

Ohhhh freaky 😬 thank you for sharing!

[@dothedo3667]

What about the blankets?

[@crimsonbride]

Omg. Any other tips please?

[@dominiquesdailydose]

Yes I bring a thermos with our own filtered water ! Game changer 😅

[@louise_g5265]

@crimsonbride always carry antibacterial wipes!! As soon as you get to your seats give as much as possible a wipe over. It's very very rare that seats and trays are wiped between flight, it tends to just be a general pick of of large litter

Tiny small tip from my previous experience that super helped me since I did it by myself bringing my one year old just to add when it comes to the change of clothes; rompers or onsies w/ the zippers are like the easiest & fastest clothes to bring.

[@erickaomnasjamoyot]

Love your tips and in addition: Diaper bag has to be tote, you can squish that better under the seat infront of you. Nothing spills out. Formula: I use plastic individual pouches from Amazon. Less space for it too. Pre-fill the bottles with water TSA doesn't care. I wash bottles with Ubbi travel drying rack and I use castille soap for everything.

[@emilyyann17]

These are great tips! I’m almost 36 weeks with our first and we’ve talked about taking a short flight to visit family when she’s about 6-8 weeks old and this is so helpful, even though she’ll be so small and won’t need entertaining like a toddler. 😂

[@rajwinderkaur348]

I am travelling with 22 months old next month so this video is going to be very helpful. Thank you 😊

[@taralopes5465]

Thank you so much for making this video!! I'm moving to HI from the east coast very soon and my husband and I have been dreading the upcoming 13hr trip with our two toddlers (4 and 18m). These tips and tricks were super helpful and I feel like I'm more prepared now than I ever was before. You are definitely helping parents out here 🙌🏼

[@RendtheHeaven]

Thank you for all the tips! About to take a 24-hour flight with my then 6mo so I will take all the tips I can get. Pls pray for us haha 🫠

[@hoangvanle3045]

This year I am traveling with my 1 year old🎉 Thanks for the tips❤❤😊 ❤❤❤❤

[@amandaburns6294]

This was so helpful. We have traveled with our now 10 month old in long car trip destinations. But we will soon be travel on a plane this month. To the virgin island.it’s pretty nerve racking but these tips put me at more ease! Love the content. Much love to you and your growing family ❤

[@acornautumn9927]

I am literally 16 so I don’t need this but i LOVE that these videos exsist so i can learn how to live my life without having to be stationed as a mother and stop traveling until my kids are like 12,

[@BethGraceMoore]

Travelling with them is so much fun and totally doable!!

[@cyndianne03]

Great tips! Also such a cute bag. Mom of 4 here and in a few months taking a our first trip as a family of 6. My youngest is 2.

[@suzannejimenezsanchez9681]

Thank you for this video! One of the best one’s I’ve seen!! This year we’re travelling for the first time with our baby (he will be 13months for that trip and it will be an international flight), so this was super helpful!

[@raae-lm3dr]

Security is required to allow you to bring breastmilk or formula in any quantity (even if the baby is not present - for breastmilk and dry formula) because it is considered medically necessary and therefore exempt from the liquids rule! It does need to go through extra screening, but you can absolutely bring it!

[@nepptina]

I’m actually headed to Sweden this summer with our (will be) 14m baby! We’ve done trips within the US and to Canada but this is our first one with a time change and transatlantic flight 😮

[@BethGraceMoore]

That’s so funny, it was the same case for us!! 😂 you’ve got this. Check out the travel vlog we did in Sweden for more tips on making that trip! We loved it so much there! You’ll have such a great time.

[@roxanneonthemove4187]

Years ago when we traveled with our son who was not quite two, to have him drink something when taking off and landing. As they get older, swallowing food or drink helps with clearing the ear “popping” which can be painful. That is why most of the times you hear babies or young children crying is because they are unable to clear their ears from the pressure.

[@themomchronicles171]

Glad I found this, thanks Beth

[@milaniaa.932]

Going to London this summer with 14 month old baby ❤

[@suself]

Will be going on our first trip with our baby in the summer (to france from the US!)- he will be one by then! This was super helpful- thank you!!!

[@Honest_Mom]

Snacks for takeoff and landing. My secret weapon is chocolate coins.

[@rena_wang]

Thank you for sharing your experience and helpful tips! Traveling on an international red-eye flight next month and I’m going to be using all these tips ❤

[@thehillsmdofficial]

This is such a great video! I’ll definitely try these things on our upcoming cross country trip to California.

[@CassieDeJarnett]

Thank you! We’re planning to visit our best friends in Europe next spring and our baby girl will be just over a year so this is so helpful!!

[@AnnaTravels]

Thank you! About to go on our first flight with our baby.

[@BaebooVlogs]

This is so helpful. Especially im going with my soon 13month old this November. Thank you for sharing your tips and experience

[@BethGraceMoore]

So glad! Enjoy your trip! 🤍

[@Rite1010.]

Call the airline before you book tickets to make sure they have a bassinet. Then book your tickets. Most airlines allow them to be used up to 2 years old.

[@cassandraz3035]

That diaper bag was a clown car 😂 well done!

[@BethGraceMoore]

Literally 😂😂😂

[@kennedypavlik5234]

This was super helpful! We are traveling with our 7 month old and I was wondering if you have any tips for babies wanting to be up and about moving. She’s right on the cusp of crawling and LOVES tummy time so I will do lots of floor time before the flight. Any other suggestions?

[@lumadeoliveira5473]

This video is super helpful. Thank you for sharing!

[@fatinesa9684]

i love your tips, they are so practical and detailed. thanks!!!

[@JoST41]

They allow extra water milk and formula for babies over the regular liquid allowance

[@rebekahwestwood]

Love these tips! Side note you are so pretty 😍

[@BudgetTravelKids]

Great tips, thanks!

[@barbarajackson5746]

Such a helpful video! I’m 28 weeks pregnant with my first and am planning to fly home to visit family with my baby when she’s about 6 weeks. Any special tips for infants? How old was your daughter on her first flight? Did you ever breastfeed or pump on a plane? :))

[@alexrambo3325]

Thank you!

[@HopeAndrea_HFG]

These are helpful tips, thank you

[@charityw2249]

Will you link the formula canister you used

[@evelynsblessedhome]

Yes! We’re going to Florida and this is so important! Definitely saving this when we go! Thanks for sharing!! Did you notice your stroller get damaged?

[@BethGraceMoore]

It's hard to say because we never took any photos before/after so I can't tell which things were already there or not haha but no! No noticeable damage from travel 👍🏻

[@rockerchic07]

Thank you for this!!!

[@marica-kris8788]

Hi! Thank you for your tips!! We’ll use them on our upcoming trip. Kinda anxious with that but let’s seeee haha. What did you do with the water for formula? Did you bring your own or just got it from the plane? My baby is now taking atleast 200ml per bottle 😅

[@evelynsblessedhome]

Where is the Moses basket from? 😍 it’s so cute! I can’t wait to hear updates on the baby! We’re pregnant again together 🥹🥹

[@BethGraceMoore]

It's from Indigo 🥰 and awe yay!! Congrats to you! Going to post a second trimester update soon :)

[@muzm4103]

I don’t see the link for 4th month linkrd

[@manaswinikundeti1856]

Thank you for sharing so many tips. Have a question. What was the sleeping arrangement you guys went with for the little one on the 9hr flight? Did you guys take an extra seat? Or car seat into the flight? Or was it an on the lap?

[@BethGraceMoore]

On our laps! :)

[@Hoopla29856]

I would say it doesn’t hurt to overpack some extra diapers and formula/milk. We ended up on what should’ve been a short flight with a short layover in Atlanta with my 10 months old and had decided to check our bags and just take a minimal diaper bag with us. Of course our flight got delayed, we trusted the employee at the gate who said we would totally still make our connecting flight. We didnt. And it was the last flight out for the night so we had to stay at an airport hotel. I panicked a ran around looking for somewhere to buy diapers or milk in the airport and who would’ve thought, there is not a single place to buy a diaper in an airport?! I had like 3 diapers left and one bottle of formula to make it to the next day. We got home with my baby wearing the last diaper I had and had to make it work with yogurt and random airport snacks. It was stressful. Not even the airport hotel we stayed at had diapers or milk. We had no car and only the shuttle to get back to the airport. Don’t book flights with a layover late at night.

[@lavender8980]

I’ll pack extra. This sounds scary enough 😮

[@zoelizapaulamariano1072]

This is very helpful. Flying alone with my baby soon. Do you recommend to filled the baby bottle with distilled water before the flight? Thank you:)

[@BethGraceMoore]

Only if you're able to do it after you're past the gate since they'll dump it in security! But yes that's a great option esp. if your baby is fine with drinking at room temp :)

[@Velveteen2]

They should not dump it in the security. You just need to say that it is for the baby. I did the same. Parents are allowed liquids that are for the baby. I had 1 liter of water with me

[@angelicamartinez4739]

All tips are very good thank you… That said, with formula you’re supposed to put the water first and then formula powder 🤔 So the pre prepared bottles with just the powdered formula in them and no water is not gonna work…

[@SydneyLedbetterxo]

What do you suggest about kiddos who are on whole milk? 😭😭

[@dublasvega]

You mentioned bringing your marriage certificate and the birth certificate but what if you aren’t married?

[@themodernhomemaker]

Did you bring your car seat or get baby her own seat?

[@BethGraceMoore]

@@themodernhomemaker we bring the car seat as part of the stroller attachments and it goes under the plane. We hold baby on our laps for the flight under they’re over 12 months and require a seat!

[@olyagrechyna6206]

ok you are great, but lighting is horrible ... my eyes were in pain. Thanks for the info tho :)
