"Despite my best efforts, our flight to Florida was a disaster.  Before we boarded, I was discussing how nervous I was with one of the parents we were traveling with, and he said, &amp;quot;Yeah, we were going to give our daughter Benadryl, but we forgot it.&amp;quot; We have given Emmett Motrin before two return flights, but only because he had an ear infection. Granted, both of those flights went smoothly. (He slept most of the way both times.) But still, it didn&amp;#039;t occur to me to give give him medicine before a flight when he&amp;#039;s feeling totally fine. Obviously I don&amp;#039;t want to over-medicate my toddler, but he barely ever has medication. Would a dose before a flight be so terrible? It can&amp;#039;t be any worse than the hour of in-the-seat wrestling followed by the hour of screaming followed by him passing out for 20 minutes before we landed, right? I mean, the flight was miserable for him, too! Have you ever drugged your baby before a flight? Have you ever considered it? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
