Along with the symptoms, aches and pains, and increasing size, pregnancy has a couple other drawbacks. One of those being the need to stop all of your alcohol intake!
Now, pregnancy isn’t all bad since you’re growing your future bestie inside of you, but this was one of the hardest ones for me to handle, especially in the winter.
It can be tough during the holiday season as you may miss the cocktails at Christmas Eve dinner or toasting to accomplishments at your company’s holiday party. But have no fear! There are still ways to get you in the holiday spirit and still feeling festive during the holidays.
