Hope it eases quickly. I'm supposed to be flying to the UK a week on Saturday with a year-old baby. Not sure how I'm supposed to feed her or keep her watered in the current situation.
I just think you're freakin' out 'cause you have to fight someone prettier than you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh man, Fiona, I really hope things are back to normal by then. At least they'll have beverages available at the airport/on the plane, I'm sure.

That's something, but don't they think bad guys could just put their bad stuff in formula containers??

Exactly one year old today, too!

They make you taste it, I guess that's something.

I've heard of people being made to taste breast milk, so it wouldn't be unheard of with formula.

She doesn't drink formula. (Fortunate that I should be able to take my breasts onto the plane with me, not that I breastfeed much during the day any more). She drinks water, but only out of a special sippy cup. She also doesn't like jarred baby food, so I make her lunch, and was going to take a jar of that along. If I can't feed her on the plane, I'll need to do it when we change planes in Amsterdam, though I'm not sure quite how that will work if I have to check in my hand luggage for the whole journey. Maybe it can go in the hold, along with the pushchair.
Also not sure what I'll do if and when we need to change a nappy.
Oh well, we'll work something out.
Edit: just checked the website of the carrier we're flying with; here's what they have to say:
Passengers may only take through the airport security search point, the following items:....
For those traveling with an infant: baby food, milk and sanitary items essential for the flight.
So we should be OK. The restrictions also appear to be just for flights leaving the UK, so we have a bit longer for that (29th August).

Thrive to spite them
Does any one know where I can find clip art of the intenational do not sign (circle with hash mark) for some reason I can't find it anywhere and it's driving me nuts. I need to make a flyer asap.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
