Anyone Ever Done Disneyworld with a 3yr old and Infant?

[Club Cooloholic]

We are debating doing a trip next year. We are expecting in mid November so were thinking either late may(right around when baby is 6 months old and able to have her vaccinations) or waiting a little more till sept/oct when baby will be a bit older.
Our other one was not yet two when we took her the first time, and really does not remember anything, so this trip will really be for her, so we are thinking if the baby is only 6 months old it might be actualy easier as she will not be fighting to get on the floor and crawl so much as if she is 9 or 10 months old. What do you all think? And if anyone has done this, what sort of rides where you able to do with the infant.

We went in August 2008 with our 3 1/2 year old daughter and 7 month old son. It was hot but they were fine. We took advantage of the baby care centers, took lots of breaks and the kids napped in strollers. It was a very tiring trip but the kids had a great time.

We did this two years ago...my DD was 3 and DS was 6 months. It was a lot of fun and DD loved every single minute and she does remember parts of it! She's 5 now and it's actually funny how much she remembers. Very specific details and things she did and did not like. I definitely say go...just be ready to take breaks when needed. Definitely take advantage of the rider swap if the adults in your party enjoy thrill rides. We took the baby on a lot of rides and into attractions....he got spooked during "It's Tough to be a Bug" but I was able to quietly slip out. One thing that really helped us was keeping snacks on hand that we knew DD liked. We didn't want to count on buying snacks there, but not only because of the $$ it would cost to buy them, but to make sure we had something she liked. This helped avoid a melt down on more than one occasion with her.

We had a 8, 7, 4 year old and a 3 week old with us in August. It was my 70th birthday and there were 14 of us. The 3 week old is our first great grandchild and our son and DIL's first grandchild. She won't remember the trip but we will. Needless to say there was a lot of help and, hands down, the best Disney trip ever.
