I am pregnant and planning a trip to India, Thailand, South Africa and Australia. Is it OK to fly and take a 3-month-old to these countries?
I think the safety about traveling with a 3-month-old is up to your pediatrician. My biggest worry (having children myself) would be about access to good medical care in case of illness, which is not uncommon (viruses, needing immunizations, etc.) in infancy."
