Why would anyone WANT to? If it's only a "vacation"? If
your daughter were relocating to another country, she might
really NEED to travel with an infant that young. If the
travel is purely recreational, why not postpone it a bit?
Traveling with an infant can be stressful, and very young
children don't have much in the way of acquired immunities
to the various illnesses to which travelers are exposed.
