Unless you are particularly wedded to going by train, you could also consider the Antwerp Express bus, which is slightly more expensive (€10) but can be quicker (45 mins) depending on the connection time you would have had at Gare du Nord when going by train. It is certainly easier with regard to humping suitcases, and it has 2 stops in Antwerp, the last one close to the central station. http://www.brusselsairport.be/en/parking_transport/toandfrom/bus
