So happy for you! Congratulations! We took our daughter at 4 and 9 months and already have trips planned at 14 and 21 months. It’s obviously been said but stay where you want. We love Epcot so we stay at Boardwalk. When she was 4 months, we stayed at Saratoga and it was honestly a disaster when you talk about temperament. She knew her bedtime and she would scream at around 8 and so being in a Uber trying to get back to SSR was awful. From there on out, I decided on only Epcot or monorail until we have older kids.
Another tip if you’re able is to have a 1 bedroom (or 2 with in laws). My daughter sleeps in her own room at home so at 9 mos when we took her and she was teething/getting over an illness and we were in a studio, she screamed at us all night.
I know these sound like I’m sharing the worst experiences but I wish someone had told me to stay in close proximity and to not have her in the same room! Otherwise it was amazing and she was an angel during the days in her carrier and stroller. And obviously we have 2 return trips planned so it wasn’t too bad One other small tip is that if they are crawling make sure you give them plenty of time in the room to do that, it was a rookie mistake that I think lead to being upset at night too.
