Adding an Infant...

Trying to book some award flights (short-haul Club Europe) for next year. Mrs Ratypus is expecting our first child between now and then...


The BA website clearly allows to select "infant" for both cash and award bookings, BUT I cannot complete the booking online since we have neither a name nor a date of birth for said infant just yet...


I want to book the seats now as there are only 2 left on the flights we want.


What to do? Book them now for me and Mrs Ratypus, then call up later to add the infant to the booking? There will be a small Avios & tax cost for the infant (from what I see on the dummy booking), but since it doesn't need its own seat should be no availability issue, right?


Apologies if this is an obvious question - have never had to consider booking with kids before!
