We were in Atlantic City a few months ago, at a comedy show. There were two couples & a very young baby at a nearby table. I was absolutely amazed - that baby did not make a sound for 2 hours, right through the entire show. But I must say that I was shocked to see a baby at a show. My first ever!

Maybe the baby didn't think the comedian was funny.

Or maybe the baby was drugged, er, I mean medicated.

If you are still serious about taking a 2 month old to Vegas, please read the thread on hotel babysitters. Please.

I don't think the baby liked Atlantic City :-D

There is one benefit to bringing a baby to AC or Vegas, when you yell "baby needs a new pair of shoes", the rest of the table will know you're not kidding.

ITA with E. The OP will go to LV because she will be determined to prove us wrong. The first outing with the baby will be a nightmare. After that, someone in the group will be stuck with the baby in the timeshare because the OP will read the hotel sitter thread, and not want anyone but family watching her child. I will bet (it's a LV thread, right?) that the baby catches a cold or worse just from the flight (it's that time of year for the germs). The baby will be sick, then others in the group will catch it. It will be OP and her family's worst trip to LV because of the inconvenience. The flight home with everyone ill will be even worse than the 1st flight. However, OP still may not think it was a mistake because OP wants to prove her life is totally unaffected by having a child. Countless LV vacationers will be annoyed at OP and the baby. So, let's watch in mid-Nov for the thread "My LV trip was ruined by a baby."

Methinks the original poster has slunk away never to return to Fodors.com.

Ryan,

That's hysterical!

bogger Oct 19th, 2004 01:19 PM

OMG, jlnz, I can't think of any reason for ever leaving my child no matter what age with a hired babysitting service in "Sin City"!!

Al_LaCarte Oct 19th, 2004 01:25 PM

Forgive me but I can't tell from the heading: Las Vegas with a 2 month old what?

Black_Bart Oct 19th, 2004 01:34 PM

AL, stop it, you're killing me.

But seriously folks! Al you should put your story from the babysitter thread here, it's killer!

travellin Oct 19th, 2004 03:15 PM

I didn't think babies were supposed to fly until at least three months???

jersey Oct 19th, 2004 03:46 PM

ROTFLOL

This thread has finally gotten the seriousness it deserves.

Ryan-you are too funny.

diddl_maus Oct 19th, 2004 03:53 PM

Her well behaved two month old who enjoys show tunes and fine dining can fly, too??? This truly is a remarkable baby.

GoTravel Oct 20th, 2004 08:31 AM

Al, a two month old lip fungus.

I hope the nc at the end of nadienc's name doesn't mean she's from North Carolina.

I'm 45 and Vegas makes ME cry, whine and misbehave.

cruisin_tigger Oct 20th, 2004 10:09 AM

Ryan - LOL!!! :D

BTW, in case anyone is considering taking their newborns to Vegas might I suggest the following as appropriate attire:
