What should have taken three hours took six due to a head wind. The baby yelled non-stop; I was so stressed I had no milk and he wouldn’t take a bottle – not from me or his father or even the air hostess.

You know, Glenda, I miss my little kids now they are big kids with kids of their own, but I soon stop being sentimental when I remember episodes like that one!

And I expect there comes a point on long haul flights where most parents of small children would be tempted to open the door and let the kids go play outside for two minutes, heh. :oD

Don’t think you can explain really, just give him diversionary activities to get him to play quietly (if American children can play quietly, heh) and try to catch a nap when you can. Or try brandy in warm milk as a sedative, heh. His body-clock will adjust after a week or two…

I’m sure you love having him to stay really. :o)
