Flying w/ Our Baby for the First Time

This was our first time taking our son on a plane. We were super anxious about him crying during the flight and upsetting all the passengers.

Griffin is such a freakin CHAMP! What an adorable sweet baby. Cheers to you guys going on your first flight with a newborn and it being 8 hours.

[@MattandAbby]

Thank you so much!

Griffin has no choice his parents are the worst in the world. They had this kid for views. Go to sleep- beat his back so hard to get a burp out- never play with him put him in the closet Literally

He did such a good job! No need to be embarrassed when your baby cries. He's only communicating. I don't necessarily get annoyed by crying babies. I actually feel sympathy for the parents who are trying to calm them because I know they (the parents) are probably frustrated from trying to keep baby from disturbing others. I'm glad you didn't feel judged! ❤️❤️

[@racheloshaksmusic]

The slow mo part with the music was too funny 😂😂😂😂😂 Griffin smiling so hard as you tell us he’s having a blowout😂😂 I love how real this all is. Shout out to Matt for the great editing 💯💯 God bless you guys and I’m so glad you both arrived safely. You guys were very prepared! I’m learning from you guys even as you guys are learning !

Currently 35 weeks pregnant and I've been so nervous thinking about how we're going to have to take our baby on multiple long plane flights when she's 3 months old. Thanks so much for sharing your positive experience!

[@alican5695]

Griffin is a trooper! I know it feels like everyone is staring at you when your kid starts screaming but honestly, anyone who has ever had a child themselves understands and feels for you. Don’t listen to the negativity. ❤

It is so important for young adults to see it is possible to still do fun things and take your baby with you! Fun doesn’t end when you have kids! We’ve got a three year old and an 8 month old and we still do lots of things we love with them. Actually it makes it MORE fun watching our toddler start to love what we love and experience our favorite things for the first time. Thank you Matt and Abby for being such a solid example of a loving marriage and loving parents. I wish we lived in Arizona, we could be friends 🤣❤

Griffin did so well! I’m so proud of you guys! You did crazy well, you guys settled with a plane and really considered everything and anything. It’s not easy travelling with a baby, I’ve done it with my younger sister (she was 2, and it was only half the time, so 4 hours), so it was super crazy and hard. You guys worked together and made a perfect team! ❤

[@abbyroberts3]

I’m bringing my 2 month old daughter on a plane for the first time tomorrow morning so you guys posted this at the perfect time. Funny enough, our names are “Max and Abby”. Hoping our little girl does as well as Griffin!!!

People are honestly super surprising. One time my whole family (including my 1 year old baby cousin) took a trip to Disney. The whole flight over he screamed and cried. Everyone including the passengers, flight attendants, and captains were so nice. Everyone asked if they could help and they even took him into the cockpit. People like this really make the world a better place. ☺️

awww cute, you guys took care of this so well for your first time!! woww!! i remember when i was little my family does lots of travelling because we are very fortunate to have lots of money to be able to do that but since my little brother is only a toddler his flights dont tend to go well even though hes not a newborn anymore! but my advice if griffins ever screaming sometimes it may mean his ears need to be popped. my advice is to hold griffins nose for afew seconds and take it off for afew seconds every so often and it will sooth the pain, hope your both doing well you guys rock at this whole parenting thing! cant wait to hear more about your trip! :)

I hate Dallas Airport.

[@marybeth1644]

I am that lady on a plane who adores babies, even if they cry. I remember when I was seated with a Mama and her 2 babies on a packed flight. The connecting flight got cancelled and it was announced we would all be put up at a hotel. I could see the panic in that Mama’s eyes. I took that Mama and her babies under my wing. I helped her on the bus ride to the hotel. We went to dinner and I held her infant while his Mama and toddler sister ate a good meal. The next morning I helped her pack up and I helped her and her babies get back to the airport, get through security, back on the plane, and I stayed with her until her parents picked her and her babies up at the end of our rescheduled flight. I was so lucky to be able to help a fellow Mama. The entire experience was such a blessing.
