Baby travelling to UK with only an Aussie passport
I was just admiring with envy my 4 month olds Australian passport the other day when it suddenly occurred to me, is she going to have any issues getting in to the UK on our trip back in December when she only has an Australian passport?
My wife and I have British Passports but I haven't as yet sorted one out for my daughter, so she'd be entering the UK on an Australian passport. Are we going to run in to any problems in light of this?

We did this a few times with our kids and had no problems whatever. She'll only be able to stay for 6 months in the UK, but as you're only going on holiday it won't be an issue.

Yes, you'll have no issues. We had both and found we had to use our Aussie passports as you can enter UK without a visa, but couldn't return to Australia with UK passport and no visa, (Aussie visa gets cancelled once you become a citizen).
