For both trips, I needed to give them the infant detail in advance so I could obtain a bassinet seat. On some airlines, they won't pre-assign you bassinet seats unless you were traveling with an infant. It is no problem for them to create an infant booking without Date of Birth or name yet. At least on CX and SQ they were able to do it and I called after the birth to give them the details.
As far as i can remember that the baby must be 6 weeks old before being allowed to travel. I am not 100% certain on this but check with reservations....
