Some planes have a bassinet available, so ask for that, & I am sure they will fuss also.

If it means spending time with DH then go, if poss get into a habit of following him around, do it while baby is little.

For times when you are stuck at home alone, get a hobby, or a good book, do stuff you can't really do when he is there, take advantage of help, & join a coffee group, you will meet mums & make friends.

But most of all look after yourself & treat yourself

Flying at that age is really simple!!!!  As others have said, feed or dummy on tak off or landing (Tom was always an impatient sod and would feed before take off....but dummy helped).  Have spare dummy and everything you need to reach in a little bag that you can shove in seat pocket as once bubs is on your lap its really hard to reach a bag under your seat.   Book a seat near the front of the plane and then when they board from the back, go up and board too.  They will let you and it means you have more time.  For this reason I felt window seats better.  Aisle seats do have the advantage of quicker access to loo though. 

 

I found staff generally helpful and some gave me a blanket to rest bub's head on.  Generally Tom slept through flights at that age.

 

Front pack makes getting around airport easy.

 

Thats all I can remember.

 

I have to travel with 2 of them on my own in a couple of months...eek!
