First, I just have to say how excited I am to be back on these boards! I used them years ago to plan a few trips, but haven't been back on in awhile. I'm completely addicted again.
Anyway... DH and I recently had a baby and we can't wait to take her to WDW! We were originally thinking about going when she was two, and possibly going to DL around 15 months as a dry run since it's not as big or overwhelming. Well, tonight my parents announced that they are going to WDW in December and would love us to come along if we're interested. This changes everything in terms of our plans. Our DD will be 13 months old at the time.
My question is for those of you who've made the trek with small babies. Is it crazy to take her when she's so young? Should we just suck it up and wait until the following year? Also, we went in Dec '99 and there were a few cold days. I'm wondering if it's just too cold for a little one that time of year. Can a 13 month old be held on the smaller rides (Fantasyland)?
I would love any advice or opinions to help me and DH decide what to do. I never thought I'd need to "decide" whether or not I wanted to go to WDW! But, everything is so different now that we are three!
Thanks!!!
