Traveling to NYC with baby...questions.
Hi there,
My husband and I are considering a trip to NY for a wedding in June. DD will be about 16 months at the time. I'm assuming we need to take a carseat for any cab rides--how realistic is that? Should we just try to stay on the subway instead? Also, we'd be attending a wedding outside of the city via shuttle--so we'd definitely need a carseat for that, right? I know we'd need stroller, hotel with crib or bring pack-n-play, etc. Any other tips or things to consider? We've been to NYC several times, but never with a baby.
Thanks!
Jenny in Texas

Re: Traveling to NYC with baby...questions.
Also, check with your hotel regarding the availability of cribs. If your arrival is late, they may give out all of the cribs before you arrive, hotels will often not "guarantee" a crib. But we have made do on occasion with a hotel air mattress or regular mattress on the floor of our hotel room.
Bring a light stroller, there could be lugging of it up and down stairs, etc.
And in terms of fun places to go:
There are two children's museums (Manhattan and Brooklyn)
The central park zoo and petting zoo
THe carousel in central park
are among our favorites.
