The_Kincardine Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Nail everything down. I half agree. Wee weans need stuff to explore. Just move anything of value. The rest is fair game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weirdcal Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Nail everything down.Tv on wall, everything else high up. Baby gates at kitchen and man cave... For someone who couldn't work out forwards, once he got it he's crossing rooms almost as fast as I can walk them! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Took Wee man on first plane today, alone. Mum drove ahead, we didn't fancy driving baby 8 hours to this cottage. Airport went smoothly, he fed, watered and amused himself. Nappy changed just as boarding was called. So far so good. Then he took a massive dump on the transfer bus to the plane. Changing a v soiled baby in a plane toilet cubicle while the stewardess is thumping the door telling you to get a shift on so we can push back is no doubt the most stressful holiday start so far! He's having a ball now, it was all worth it. And... Relax! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shat just as we took off (50 minute flight) and just after changing him, he done it again. A pretty stressful flight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Where did you fly from and to? Edinburgh to Stornoway. Cracking views of Skye as we went over. Good day! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggie_Murray7 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 We took our eldest away to the US early on. I don't remember what age but I'm sure she was less than 9 months. Glasgow to Seattle vis Chicago. Nightmare. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ando Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 We've taken the kids on a plane to France, Italy and Spain since the oldest was only 5 months, never had a big issue. The boy, who was 17 months when we went to Barcelona in June was a bit more difficult. Wanted up to walk all the time. Didn't help that he was on my knee and I was squashed in next to pretty big couple who weren't happy with his antics. The two girls (now 6 and 4) have always been fine, just packed loads for them to do in an easily accessible rucksack. One new thing for every 30 mins, colouring in, snacks, movie on a tablet, leap pad, dolls/soft toy etc. Booked up for flights in to Pisa next year and the boy gets his own seat which will hopefully make it easier. Don't think I would do a flight more than three hours with them though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 We flew with our kids (4 and 1) for the firs time at the start of last month, Edinburgh to Paris. The kids were great, to be honest. After we landed in Edinburgh an old woman commented to my wife how well behaved the kids had been. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest Saints Fan Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 My cousin and his wife have taken their 6 kids, who range from 8 or 9 years old to less than a year old to Turkey this week. I couldn't think of anything worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest Saints Fan Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 The tax payer certainly hasn't paid for their tele. They are probably the most organised couple I've ever met, I've no idea how they do it though. One child sounds hard enough work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty79 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 The wife wants to get one of those 4d scans done to see if we can tell if it's a boy or a girl, also so that our daughter can be there as there's a good chance she'll be at school when we go for the 20 week scan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
