Traveling with a Newborn When Adopting Out of State - Weekend Wisdom
Manage episode 415031553 series 2880613
Send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom.
Question: My husband and I have been matched with a mom expecting twins any day now. One topic that was a particular stress point for us that we found difficult finding resources on was the logistics of flying/traveling with a true newborn, let alone two, and handling the waiting period for ICPC (Interstate Compact for the Placement of Children). We're working with a national agency and in our particular case, we live in Texas and our twins are being born in New York. We have a lot of questions.
- Is it better to fly or drive?
- Weighing the risk of communicable disease in an airport vs the risk of driving cross-country while sleep deprived
- What the options if flying - carseat, plane bassinet, or carrying the infant?
- How to travel and feed the infant - powdered or pre-mixed formula?
- What is needed for the stay away from home while waiting for ICPC?
Resources:
- Adopting a Child from Another State (CreatingaFamilyEd.org Online Course)
- Basic Baby Care (CreatingaFamilyEd.org Online Course)
- Adoption Resource Guide
