How young is too young to visit?

I think it depends on the parents. Some parents enjoy taking little ones just to see how they react and for their memories. When you take a baby, I feel that you are taking them for your memories. Any age is a good age to go as long you know what your doing.

OK - so here's the thing. I took my oldest daughter to Disneyland at 12 days old, after a c-section. She was 2 weeks late, and I was NOT missing out on a Disney trip. The day was absolutely lovely, she slept in the stroller most of the time, had her picture taken with Mickey, rode the Jungle Cruise, we strolled around and ate yummy food and watched shows. It was fantastic. My son's first trip was probably more around 6 months, because his delivery was very difficult and I was in hospital for a long time.

There are some things that you need to be prepared for when you take a small infant to a Disney Park.

1) Pack your diaper bag with twice as much stuff as you think you'll need. We always took two full changes of baby clothes with us for the day, and sometimes that wasn't enough.

2) Mid-afternoon naps back at the hotel room are a good thing, for everyone. Depending on the time of year you go they become extra important to get out of the heat.

3) While you can do the child-swap in order to go on rides, a baby will change your touring style. Don't expect to spend much time on rides.

4) You will get unsolicited advice from random strangers telling you how awful it is that you've brought your baby out in the world so young. **** them. No one gets to decided how to raise your baby but you. Fresh air and sunshine are awesome, just use sun screen and a pram with a good shade. (Seriously, there's no difference between taking the baby for a walk in the park and taking a baby for a walk in the Magic Kingdom.)

5) Make use of the Disney Baby-care centers, they are awesome, and usually a quiet spot to escape if the little one is over stimulated.

6) If you are nursing be extra sure to stay very hydrated.

It's really not about the baby having memories of it being Disney, it's about you having those memories. Between my three kids, the earliest Disney memories of theirs come from about 3 years old. All of them were there well before that, and I loved every minute.

Originally I'd thought I'd need to wait till they're about two, but they can fly for free before then, so it makes sense to go before. We could also try to factor in some down time in Orlando so that the whole trip is not Disney-focused. What do people think? I know everyone says they won't remember it, but I don't see an issue with that seeing as how we'll be taking them lots of times!
