I'll be heading to the east coast for a wedding next weekend. The wedding is a town 2 hours from my parent's house and I would love to bring Olivia home to see them, but she's developed her shrieking lungs recently. The below demo reel shows her at 1/3 her capacity. Additionally, for the 6.5 hour westbound flight, I'm currently booked in a middle seat. She's not normally a continuous shrieker, but even a few 10 minute episodes on a 4 or 7 hour flight can be really stressful.
One of the websites I regularly consult for advice recommends benadryl or dramamine, but I'm not a huge fan of drugging her for 7 hours (since I have the option to leave her at home.) I think that my current aversion to automobiles may have something to do with all the Dramamine I took as a kid. Additionally, several parents report that Benadryl sometimes has the opposite effect (I would hate to find out the hard way.)
What do you think?

She is really cute - looks like she just wants attention - but I guess it doesnt count if your sister says she is really cute. Depends more on what your seatmate thinks.
Actually, I dont really call that shrieking. She just wants someone to play with her. Just bring a lot of toys on the flight!
