Yup - I just checked her through to Dallas and picked her up on the luggage belt. It was no sweat! As easy, an illegal, as that sounds - Sofia and I travelled to Dallas and back ALONE and surprisingly it was okay. I was a very proud momma bear with my little girl sprawled out on top of me, sleeping with her mouth open and gently farting at 20,000 ft. But almost no crying, so everyone was happy.
Here's was my secret: almost starve her before the flight so she was desperate to get her lips around that bottle at take off. The Thanksgiving-style meal promptly put her to sleep and when she woke up, guess what, it was time to eat again right as we were descending.
Sounds too easy? Well that was the warm-up, the real adventure is when we take her to the UK for Christmas! Watch this space!
