when do infants count?

[aes74]

We now have a new little one, so our family total is five (3 kids). As far as booking rooms, when does he count? Right now, I should be able to get a studio since he only sleeps in a crib, right?? He is only three months old.

Thanks!

I think the official wording is "under 3", so you have a while yet.

That's correct - you're good until his 3rd birthday. After that, you'd need a 1br at one of the resorts that allows 5 (AKV Kidani & I think BLT).

A bit off-topic...but we found out the hard way that infants DO count when making dining reservations...they won't let you plan to keep your baby on your lap...you don't have to pay for food for a child under 3 (so long as that child eats off your plate and nothing separate is ordered for him/her), but his/her seat does count ... so if you're making any TS reservations, do tell the dining person that you have a baby...maybe at 3 months the rules would be different, but for our 15-month-old toddler last Labor Day we wound up all screwed up w/our Cindy's Castle reservation cuz I'd made it for 4 (thinking our baby would sit on his mom's lap) and they wouldn't allow it...had to be for 5...one of us had to leave w/the baby (thus turning it into a table for 3)-- since then we've been back and every TS reservation I made counted the toddler as a seat at the table...
