Travelling with a 10 week old?

We will be flying to FL in a couple of weeks when our DD will be 10 weeks old. I plan on bringing the infant car seat, car seat base and stroller but we will be checking the car seat and stroller at the gate and keeping her in a carrier like the BabyBjorn for the flight. It seems like a lot of large items to bring but I don't think we have any other option. Has anyone travelled with a small infant and been able to minimalize what they brought?

Ditto. We went to Chicago when DD#1 was 10 weeks old. We brought the infant seat (no base - you can install it without the base. check your manual) and the snap and go. I carried her in the baby bjorn in the airport.

I have the Peg Perego Pliko stroller and it folds like an umbrella stroller so I'm not sure if there would be that much difference with the snap n go but I can borrow one. I will check how to install the car seat without the base. I didn't know that was possible. Thanks!

Same here - except we went to Florida. We gate checked the infant seat and snap n go.

We also bought a lot of items down there - diapers and formula.

Although you need a lot of things, 10 weeks was my favorite travel age so far.
