Convincing DH to go back to the mouse

When we went in April last year, the deal was that we would have a baby and do some work on the house before we go back to Disney.
When we came back, neither of us were happy with that deal anymore and wanted to go back ASAP.
We booked for October this year and said, we would see what would happen, ie baby and spare cash.
The baby is due beginning of June and would be around 4.5 months when we go. DH wasn't excited about taking a baby that young to Disney, but he is definitely warming to the idea now.
So now it's about finding the money to go.
Here is my deal:
We go in October this year. Pay as much as we can and put the rest on the credit card (we have done this before, we just wont be as quick paying it off this time due to maternity pay).
In April 2018 when free dining comes out, we book for April/May 2019, before the baby turns 2, to save on costs.
The deal is basically, we do this year, but not next year.
Help me make this sound much better than it actually is
He is so close to agreeing to it all!

I wouldn't consider it, sorry. When baby arrives you might find lots change that you'd not dreamt of.

Many congratulations

I'm inclined to agree. With a first baby everything changes. I'd prefer to be at home and enjoying my baby, then going when they're a bit older. I'm sure that some do go with a tiny baby and have a great time, but it wouldn't be for me.

I agree, you have the baby to look forward to this year, focus on that and have the holiday to look forward to another year .

If you have the holiday booked already for October what will you lose? If it's a big loss you might as well go on this holiday.

If it's just you, hubby and baby I think it would be a waste tbh. Unless you have older kids then I'd go with a baby, but with just a baby I wouldn't bother at 4 months.
