Q. I know 0-3 aren't able to do a whole lot, but when do they start to benefit from toys, like stacking blocks/rings, playing with pots and pans, and such?
0-3 months I mean. Not years.

A. She started using little rings and infant toys around 2 months, like holding them and looking at them, that's about it.
Around 3-4 months they start playing, 6 months we did pots and pans, walkers

What should I bring when traveling/flying with an 8 month old baby?
Q. We are flying to Ohio for a week (2 flights about 2 hours each). I am packing, but want to make sure I don't forget anything. I have diapers, wipes, clothes, a few toys, etc. How many bottles should I bring? I nurse and pump everyday, but will probably mostly pump while we are there. Any other suggestions would be great!
We are only bringing two small carry on suitcases and the diaper bag because luggage costs so much.

A. I just traveled with my son who was 10 months at the time...God bless you! haha....Anyway, Things I took on the plane with me 2 hour flight plus time in the airport....Diapers, wipes, change of clothes, bib, 2 bottles, 1 can of formula, infant tylenol/motrin, orajel (hes teething pretty bad lately), Food (3 jars), spoons, snacks (cereal), sippy cup, toys (ones that don't make too much noise).
Things I brought in general for the trip....Clothes, PJs, stroller, car seat, toys, baby toiletries (soap, lotion, nail clippers, nasal aspirator, brush, diaper rash cream, baby monitors (we were staying with family, so I was able to put him down for a nap, and still go outside by the pool). Towel and washclothes, sunblock.
I bought food, formula, and diapers when I got there. My relatives also borrowed a lot of baby gear from a friend so I had things there (Pack n Play, walker, high chair).
Check your airlines policies. There usually isn't a charge for checking carseat, strollers, or bassinets (pack n play), even if the child is flying on your lap. You are also allowed to bring the diaper bag plus your carry ons...the diaper bag does not count as your carry on.
Best of luck. I hope you are not traveling alone, and will have help, my son was very good and slept the entire flight there, and if it weren't for my fiance and my mother traveling with us, I would have had a nervous break down.

At what age did your baby begin to use a walker?
Q. My son will be 3 months old next week and I was thinking about ordering him a walker...what age will he be able to enjoy it?
A. Current doctors advise not to use walkers. They seem to be a danger:
A baby walker is a device that can be used by infants who cannot walk on their own to move from one place to another. Most commonly, it has a base made of hard plastic sitting on top of wheels and a suspended fabric seat with two leg holes. A baby walker often has toys attached to the top to entertain the baby. It is designed for a child between 4 and 16 months. Many parents believe that such walkers teach a child to walk faster, however, studies suggest that it is not true. The devices have also led to many injuries. In fact, CPSC, American Academy of Pediatrics and other organizations have issued warnings to discourage parents from using baby walkers.
