Anna -
I don't know if anyone's tried to thruhike the AT with a baby, but Cindy Ross
did the Colorado Trail a couple years ago with her husband and two toddlers.
They used llamas, though. I don't know if llamas are allowed on the AT.
She's just published a book on hiking with kids. You might find it of
interest.
I saw a copy in REI a couple weeks ago, but don't remember the title.
Walk softly,
Jim
