Seventeen hours in total? 22 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 2: Yep, that's right, that's right, bang on, bang on, seventeen hours. 23 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: Drop a baby on a plane, any young little bub. 24 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 2: He'll be four months at the time of flying, not 25 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 2: even And I was just listening to him in the 26 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 2: car yesterday for a half hour trip from Mum and 27 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,479 Speaker 2: Dad's back home. Listen to like how noisy you can get, 28 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 2: and think, like, what is this going to be like 29 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 2: on a plane? I feel I just already die for 30 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: the rest of the passengers, and I am going to 31 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 2: have to see it for fifteen hours in that space 32 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: of I am. 33 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: I think. I think Ruby was six months and we 34 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: did like an eleven hour flight. And if there is 35 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: they can't you know, we as humans, you can equalize. 36 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: It's that they're they're in real pain with that with 37 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: their ears. They can't equalize, and you're just he's saying 38 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: sorry the whole time. 39 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 2: And you can't give him a button, mentho old or 40 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 2: suck on because he's still too little. 41 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: No, it's it's tough. So what are you going to do? 42 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 2: Well, I will make any tips at the moment, any tips. 43 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 2: So the couple of things I've heard. One is to 44 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 2: stop that the ears swelling up or whatever happens when 45 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 2: they don't really swell up. But what happens when your 46 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 2: ears get funny is to feed them on the way up, 47 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 2: feed him on the way down. And then I thought, 48 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 2: if he's he doesn't cry when he feeds, so could 49 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 2: just feed him for fourteen hours? Just keep him on 50 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: the boom, I mean, just on the boob. 51 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: I love you where you casually. So your wife is 52 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: just going to be just breastfeeding for fifteen hours. But 53 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: at least like it's not a thing, Like it's no 54 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: big deal. 55 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 2: The other thing is someone said, get on the plane first, 56 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: and then go and put a little chocolate on everyone's 57 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 2: seat with a note that said, sorry, where the people 58 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 2: with the baby? 59 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: Trust us one on the stewards. You can't just go wondering 60 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: on the plate. Have you see what she curity is 61 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: not that plate?
