@capalay 👍there's plenty of time to figure it out. I was hoping I could show him that 2 days is unrealistic (which I think there's lots of anecdotal evidence in these comments that it is)

@capalay Thanks for your reply! Yeah it's more about not wanting to cram the trip in a 2 day time frame or go over the 2 hour time limit. My husband is just very dismissive like "he should be fine" if we go past it.

@lizmoshes Great idea, thanks. I'm part of that group.

@samuelcox003 Thanks! This is what I was looking for

@tiffers83 Lol definitely not. I was looking for articles on expert opinion or maybe case reports. Even anecdotal evidence is enough for me.

@aspiringchristian105 I would love to go but I just don't think it's doable in the time frame my husband suggests in 2 days. I wanted to show him some research (or anecdotal evidence) that we shouldn't push past the 2 hour car seat limit

@sarahsknight Great point about feeding. My LOs less than 2 months old right now and EBF. I'm rethinking the car breaks will take even longer with feeding, playing, diaper change etc. I definitely wouldn't feed him while driving. Anyhow I'm already convinced driving is off the table even if we...

@mksjdb Yeah one way. I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees this as completely unrealistic!

@katrina2017 Thanks. I'll reconsider flying as an option!

@freckledwilding I was looking for any articles/papers/research, expert opinions or anecdotal evidence. Actually I was open to driving with LO but what I disagreed upon was going over car seat time limits and trying to make it with 12.5 hours driving one day and another 12.5 hours the next (just...

@sawry1 Thanks for your story. It's enough to put my foot down to this trip!

@2cor129 I hear you. I'll have him picture this!

@mkueny153 You're right. Even if there were no studies, I'd assert that it's a bad idea.

@cutin Thanks! This is exactly the type of info I needed!!

Hi all, My FIL is turning 70 in September and my husband's family wants to surprise him with a road trip down south (Toronto to Florida Keys) which they've done many times in only 2 days. I'm very hesitant to take our LO on this trip. I told him I'd stay behind with our son (who will be 6...
