stroller and carry her through the checkpoint) but not so early that she gets restless even before boarding; always preboard if you can so you can grab premium space in the overhead compartment and get your baby situated without a crowd waiting impatiently in the aisle behind you; time feedings to coincide with takeoffs and landings (If you're still nursing, offer the breast; if not, offer a pacifier or sippy cup to minimize baby's ear pressure); and bring plenty of drinks, snacks, and entertainment.
