As of now, it seems that swine flu in the UK is under control and there is no official alert of a pandemic from the WHO or CDC. It is really up to you if you decide to postpone or carry on with the trip. Follow your parental instincts and seek advice from your doctor. There are simple precautions you can take. Swine flu is very contagious, and can spread easily by touching an infected object and then touching your face. A flu mask will help you avoid infection in enclosed spaces. Good hygiene practices are important -- wash hands constantly, anything you touch may be affected, so keeping hands clean will help you avoid infection.
Like what Idza has mentioned, washing hands frequently is one of the most direct way of preventing your family from getting the virus. You can bring along hand sanitizers and antibacterial wipes during the trip. Other things you can do are: - Ensure that your baby has enough sleep (helps maintain a strong immune system) - Get enough vitamin C for you and your family You can also speak to your doctor about getting a flu vaccination prior to the trip.
