An irrational fear, but humor me...

I am in a wedding in California over 4th of July weekend. I am leaving DH and DS at home and going to the wedding with my sister. I hate to fly to begin with, and now the thought of getting on a plane with my baby at home makes me want to vomit. 

Has anyone else traveled sans baby? I am just so nervous about flying - I joked with DH that I will need to take a Xanax before the flight!

    I would be really nervous too :(  especially this soon..don't think I could do it but kudos to you!  I did think about the flying thing when I went to FL with DS when he was six weeks old.   I could tell my husband was kind of sad and secretly nervous when he dropped us off at the airport.  My mom mentioned, well, what if that was him leaving with the baby and I thought, s%*t, point taken!  

    Anyway, then someone else mentioned to me, when it's your time, it's your time, you can't stop living your life b/c of what COULD happen.  So true...

     Good luck!

    I absolutely HATE flying.  I have panic attacks.  I couldn't even imagine getting on a plane with my babies.  I would have to be heavily, heavily sedated! Makes me quiver just thinking about it!

    I don't mind flying, but I'll be doing this in July.  There's a workshop I need to go to and I'm already panicking about leaving LO!!  Good luck!  And take a Xanax if it helps.  There's no shame!  My DH has to have a drink before any flight we go on to help calm him down.

    I hate flying too, I get the dry heaves and the big D (get the D for days before). I see nothing wrong with going to your Dr. and asking for a script for Xanax or something else. Just try taking it prior to flying to see how you will feel the day of. Or if the bar is open get a drink!!! Try to think about how much fun you will have with your sister! You will be fine!!
