Ugh. Baby boy and I are getting on a plane in a couple of hours....and he has been SCREAMING since 4pm yesterday afternoon. For no reason. I'm freaking out. I'm just praying he decides to quiet down and sleep during the flight. My nerves cannot handle this. Please wish me luck, and share any advice you have!!!

No experience on the subject here but I've heard that nursing/bottle and or a pacifier while taking off and landing are important.
I hope he settles down for you while you're on the plane! Good luck.

BFP!! 8/29/16 --> EDD: 5/11/17....it's a GIRL!!!
good luck! the only advice i have is to visit the lavatory often (his cries will be muffled) and to let him nurse as much as he wants on the plane.
keep in mind that everyone who has or loves kids will understand if he cries. last year i was on a five-hour flight with a really cranky toddler who kept wailing "i wanna watch sleeping beauty!" over and over before turning to his mom and yelling "mom, i hate you!" having a kid of my own really made me appreciate how well the mom kept her cool.
Hopefully he won't scream the whole time on the plane! If he does though, 1. You will never see those people again! 2. anytime a baby is on a plane, there is a chance they might scream the whole time. so if they didn't want to hear it, they should have got some of those Bose noise canceling headphones! Hope you have a good trip!
