From our trip in April...Sad to think that might be our last trip for awhile. However, I'm happy at the same time because we found out that I am pregnant! So my question to you all is, at what age should we bring our baby to Disneyland?! I'm wanting to bring him or her when they are one! Lol however I know they won't really enjoy it or remember it. =/

Yeah I don't even know if I can wait until he/she is one! =/ lol I'm ready to make a trip already n I'm barely 2 months! LoL - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 8:55PM
You must bring your baby to the parks on the way home from hospital. - TrueFromOzLovesDisney  312.2 #545 9:22PM

We took our daughter when she 1 1/2. She may not remember it but we do & she loves the stories & pictures of her 1st trip. She'll be 18 in December & still loves the stories. - toniasmith  263.4 #884 9:06PM
That's awesome! I Deffinately want to take my baby!! I remember going when I was little n the times I don't remember, we have on a tape! =) can't wait! - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 9:14PM
We took her picture in front of the doors in Toontown. Every visit since we have done the same thing. This will be her last time for the picture. I can't wait to put them all together! BTW, Congratulations! - toniasmith  263.4 #884 12:07AM

Thank you so much! =) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 9:52PM
Congrats. If I lived near my babies would come with me as soon as I was ready to bring them, it wouldn't be for their enjoyment but for mine. - TrueFromOzLovesDisney  312.2 #545 9:23PM
Exactly! It's more for me and my fiancé but ya kno, the baby too! And I wish I live close enough for a trip on the way home from the hospital! =) lol - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 9:54PM
I feel the same way. Your baby won't remember but you sure will. Well I think I hold some kind of record since I took my little boy at 5 weeks, haha. I love that you can actually wear your baby in a carrier (like a bijorn or moby wrap) on most of the rides - erincredible  199.6 #1637 10:02PM
And congratulations :) - erincredible  199.6 #1637 10:02PM
Thank you!! =)) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:25PM
I honestly don't think your ever to young or old to visit Disneyland! Our older girls first went around 6-7 however, our youngest was 3months when she first went, she is now 6 and has been many times and loves evey bit of it! - Beej  235.6 #1156 9:25PM
I don't think your ever too old or young either! I just wanted to get some feedback from some of you guys! =) I cannot wait to experience Disneyland with my baby! I love love love Disneyland! - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:28PM
I have twin boys and they first went 3 years ago when they were 3 1/2. We took them again for their 5th birthday and it was amazing how much they remembered. They have now been there at 3, 4, and 5 years old and we will be there in 2 1/2 weeks for 6 years old and again in Feb. for their 7th birthday. Each trip is a new adventure for them as they reach the next height requirement (last time was Indiana Jones, this time its California Screaming). You can take your kids there earlier but to be honest, it's memories for you that you get. By 3 they know the characters from TV and movies and can actually appreciate the first Mickey ears or shirt that you get and be something they want and will love. Also, as in my case as well as others, it is the memories they will have for a lifetime. - justme2012  142.5 #2399 9:25PM
I forsure want to make it a ritual to go for their birthday every year! =) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:29PM
Congrats congrats so exciting I do not have kids I'm only 18 but my nephews and nieces went their first time when they were ages 3 months to 3 yrs for there first trips ! And even though they may not remember it is exciting to see how happy everything makes them !! - disneylove7  12.3 #6150 9:33PM
Thank you! I cannot wait to take him/her! I'm sure it will be shortly after I have him/her that we take a trip to disneyland I'm way too excited already! - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:31PM
Conga rats!!! My family tradition is we take all the kids at 1. I didn't remember my first time but looooove the photos. - Jerkzilla  32.0 #4271 9:38PM
Photos are some of the best memories to see how much the parks changed over the years as well! And thank you! - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:31PM
My son was 9 months. Been going almost every week since 😃 - DSNYCheeks3  534.8 #212 9:41PM
Every week?! I'm so jealous! =) lol - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:32PM
According to my mom she didn't take me or my brother to Disneyland until we were potty trained. Makes sense because watching my cousin worrying about finding a changing table nearby and making sure they bring enough diapers for my nephew seems stressful to me. - KermitFan13  406.2 #320 9:46PM
Makes sense however I've seen a baby changing station in every bathroom and more than one even. But I see where it can be stressful. - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:33PM
Assuming you'll be able to return multiple times, they're never too young. However, if it's going to be a once-or-twice-in-a-childhood thing, I would say to wait till 6 or 7. - LittleAprilShowers  471.0 #256 9:51PM
Oh we will be returning at least once a year! - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:34PM
=) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:34PM
Our sons first official trip was at about 3 months. It's so fun to watch them react to everything around them and theb to see those reactions change as they get older :) but I agree.. if it's going to be something that only happens once or twice a year, I'd definitely wait until he/she is a little older. I'd say 4 or 5 is a good age :) - MrsDisneyMommy29  262.6 #890 9:59PM
We will be going aT least once a year, if not more =) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:36PM
just because the baby won't remember doesn't mean you won't ,start creating memories the moment that child is born because it won't be long before you're watching him/her graduate - dl811  125.0 #2645 10:13PM
Omg I kno! Watching my cousins grown so quickly makes me sad and now it's gonNa be my own kid! =\ lol so the sooner the better for our first trip as a family! =)) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:37PM
I took my oldest for the first time when he was 6 months old and my second we took him at 3 months, it's a different experience but very magical. We also did my oldest 1st birthday at Disney and it was awesome! - PinTraderMater  59.4 #3574 10:25PM
I bet! I'm hoping that finances will allow us to go sooner rather than later, but either way, for sure by the time he/she is 1! =) hopefully sooner tho! - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:39PM
Congrats! Enjoy you time with the young one, take lots of pictures you won't be sissapointed :) - ZippADeeDani  142.0 #2409 10:46PM
Thank you! We cannot wait! =)) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:39PM
I took my son when he was 3 months, 5 months, 9 months to wdw, 11 months, 18 months, 21 and 22 months, etc. I feel that it was good to introduce him early to the attractions and characters because he is almost 3 1/2 now and he isn't scared of anything. I've heard people wait until 2-3 or older and their kids get scared of meeting characters or even on the attractions... So whatever you want to do is best for you do it! Font listen to what other people at. Everyone told me we were crazy to take him so little but I wasn't going to not go on vacation because he wouldn't remember! - brodysmommy  243.6 #1060 10:58PM
That's so true! Even of he/she doesn't remember, we will and we will have the pictures to keep our memories and eventually share those with them! - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:41PM
Congrats! I took my first when she was 2 months and my second when she was 6 months; and that's only because we couldn't get to the parks sooner.  - bnbheartdisney  240.5 #1104 11:03PM
Thank you! Yes that will be the only reason we take them later rather than sooner. =) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:42PM
congrats! - DISNYLV  175.3 #1918 11:25PM
Thanx! - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:43PM
I took my son at 6 months. Athough, the trip was for my daughter who was 15yrs old at the time. I spent my mornings and evenings in the park and napped at the DL hotel during the afternoons with him. It made the trip so nice, fun and oddly enough relaxing. He enjoyed the kid rides with lots of colors and music. He even went on Pirates and handled the drop better then I did, lol. Anytime is a good time to bring them just remember going back to the hotel for rest, naps and feeds make the whole experience better. Congrats to you both!!! - Darlingfamily  23.8 #4753 1:29PM
Thank you! Yes we will be staying in one of the Disney hotels hopefully so its right there. Cannot wait to experience it with my baby and my fiancé! =) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 5:46PM
Congrats! I took all of my kids before they were one. - moomooluvr  272.6 #802 5:34PM
Thank you! I want to do that too! Lol - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 6:28PM
Congrats! My youngest was 18 months. - DisneyVacationLover  274.8 #779 5:40PM
Thank you! - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 6:28PM
Congratulations! My third child was 17 days old. I was going crazy not being able to go for months. It was only for a couple hours, not a full day trip though. - Autoalice  135.7 #2506 5:51PM
Thank you! That's me right now! Lol I'm dying over here thinking I have to wait so long! =/ lol - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 6:28PM
I went up until I was far enough in my third trimester that no one would let me go. We live 1 1/2 hrs away with the birth center being another 30-45 ins away from here and I have super fast labors so no one wanted me to have a car baby LOL It was torture! - Autoalice  135.7 #2506 6:37PM
Omg I bet! I'm dying already! Lol I'm ready to just go for a weekend just to be there n admire the parks! Lol ahh! N I can go on the little kid rides and my favorite haunted mansion! =)) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 12:10PM
We took our first at one and our second was 3 months. They won't remember but we have pictures and we had a great time. It's a whole new place when you have kids no matter how little they are!! Congrats!! - mickeyboo  65.3 #3474 7:55PM
Thank you! That's what I figured, they won't remember, but my fiancé n I will! =) I cannot wait To experience it with my baby! =) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 6:32PM
omg you have no idea the can of worms you've opened lol! - Bo22  331.1 #465 12:16PM
Lol no I don't..? - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 1:36PM
My mum and I took my sister at 2 months and we had a blast. It's such a fantastic photo opportunity for the tiny minis. She doesn't remember it of course but she loves the pics from that first trip and I think it's those frequent early visits that kick start a love of the parks. - makingmemories  162.7 #2116 12:17PM
I kno he/she won't remember but we will! And we will have lots of pictures to show for it! =) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 1:37PM
Congratulations! My fiancé and I were just talking about this and we both agree we won't be able to wait till our little one is "old enough" to go to Disney lol...It will just be a different experience, but an experience nonetheless! - disneykimmi  115.7 #2795 12:20PM
If they're really little, just take lots of pictures and videos! It's all about the memories! - disneykimmi  115.7 #2795 12:23PM
Exactly! Totally different experience but an experience you won't forget!! And thank you! =) - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 1:38PM
I'm bringing my baby girl to Disneyland in march when she will be almost 4 months. I've been on the lookout for good places, and Disneyland is SO baby friendly. There's a nursing station, plenty of changing tables in the bathrooms, plus they have the kid swap passes so you can still enjoy rides. I'm even taking a trip next month when I'll be 8 months pregnant, just because I can't let myself miss Disneyland during the holidays. Congratulations!! Disneyland really is great for all ages. - briana3292  39.0 #4017 12:28PM
Thank you! I cannot wait to take our baby!! Going to be a whole new experience! - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 1:33PM
Congrats. My daughte's first visit was for her first birthday and she has been going ever since then. We take her twice or sometimes three times a month. She is now 3 and loves disney very much. I am currently 2 months pregnant also so i believe baby #2 first visit will be when s/he is around 3 months or a little more. - ForeverLove  139.4 #2447 1:23PM
Thank you! Yeah I'm due in April so I'm thinking for Halloween or Christmas time but maybe sooner! LoL - MissMamyMouse  175.0 #1924 1:34PM
congratulations you guys! we absolutely LOVE just being at disneyland, so we brought our daughter when she was about 1. let me just say, trying to push a stroller through crowded disneyland all day is nuts. honestly, bringing her at that time was more for us than her :) ages 2-4 were the awesome years (for all of us). at that age kids love the characters, colors and parades. around 4 or so they can start going on a lot of the "children's" attractions. no matter when you go it's awesome to "re-discover" disneyland through their eyes. - OhanaPhoto  1413.9 #56 1:59PM
