Congratulations! You’re having a baby! Whether your baby is coming from your body, a surrogate, or from a complete stranger you’ll never know, I congratulate you on taking this journey! It is full of ups, downs, sideways turns, and upside down moments where you are running blind next to a self imposed cliff of failure. There are thousands of books and articles and movies and classes you can devour to brighten your path…but where do you start?

I’m not here to sell you a way of parenting, or give you all the answers, as honestly that doesn’t work. Parenting is about finding your own answers, your own solutions, your own style. Only you will know what is best, and sometimes that means not having a clue and figuring it out on the way. This article is about getting you started on your journey.

Traveling with a Newborn or a Baby can be a daunting thought, let alone reality for many; however, if you are properly prepared, it can be a fairly enjoyable and liberating experience.

My son was born on November 21st, 2018; the day before Thanksgiving. Thankfully, we didn’t have any major complications (apart from Shoulder Dystocia during delivery) and I was able to leave the hospital the very next morning (on Thanksgiving). We took the baby to Two different family Thanksgivings as soon as we left the hospital. 3 Weeks later, we traveled with our baby boy from our home in Virginia on a Ski Trip to Breckenridge, Colorado for a week. We haven’t spent a solid week at home since he was born. We are always at least traveling a half hour to family or staying somewhere for fun.
