in Babies: 9 - 12 Months

We are planning on going to Cancun with our LO in June. He will be 8 months old at the time. I am getting total anxiety about the trip and am just trying to get suggestions on how to travel.  Suggestions would be greatly appreciated especially in the area of:
Flying with an infant *This is really freaking me out*

What to bring (stroller, car seat, etc...)

How to clean bottles (He ff)

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!

    We are going to a wedding in mexico and not bringing DS.  But I thought about your same questions.

    You don't have to bring a carseat for a cab ride from airport but if you feel better about having one most airlines let you check them at gate.  Rental car companies have them as well.  Also, if your baby will be in a convertible carseat by then you can buy a little cart for the seat that has wheels to use in the airport.

    I would bring a very small umbrella stroller.

    Also, the bottle thing freaked me out a lot.  How long are you going for? I would maybe consider bringing those individual size ready to feed bottles that you can attach a nipple to.  It would probably be heavy to carry all those bottles and expensive but the water thing would make me nervous.  Maybe your hotel can give you suggestions. Or help with transportation. 

    Hotels have cribs you can use also, although it is not the safest idea.  We have the baby bjorn travel crib which is super light and great for travel. 

    Hope this helps.  I should also say, I've never flown with DS but we have gone on short vacations by car.

    we are going to cancun too!!! but on may 1st! and sara will be 10 1/2 mo by then....PP pretty much covered it for you but I could add thatyou can boil the bottles (I'm sure your hotel will aloud you) or bring a microwave sterilizer SP!? most hotels have microwaves in every room (maybe give them a call?)

    besides that...where are you staying? we are staying at the cancun palace for 10 days :)

    have fun!
