OK, so I am going to do some traveling and I wondered the best place to go to get info for airline regulations regarding carry on stuff (liquids/pastes). I want to carry all of my supplies with me. Also, any travel tips are welcome...I've not flown since I've had my little friend. Thanks in advance!!!

www.tsa.gov

That's the transportation services website and will show you exactly what is allowed in carry-ons.

Sorry it has taken me so long to reply...I was out of town for a few days. Thank you very much!!!

My advice is to take supplies in the quantity you would need if you changed everything every day. I had a rather nasty experience trying to find supplies in an unfamiliar town over a holiday weekend - even though I had brought what I thought was more than enough supplies.

Yeah, I definitely plan to take more than the usual--I always do--just in case!! :)

I always bring my 'normal' amount in my carry-on and the same amount goes into my big suitcase! Overkill, I know, but piece of mind:) Never had to use more than my normal amount!

Also, you've probably already read this, but ostomy/medical supplies are exempt from the regulations...and I've never been questioned by TSA.

Going anywhere fun?

Yes...Jamaica!! Good to know that ostomy/medical supplies are exempt--I have yet to check out the website suggested above; however, I do not want to wait until the last minute so I posted early (my trip is a couple of months off yet).
