During the cold winter months, it’s important to take care of our skin, and while pregnant it’s even more important. As your baby and bump grows, your skin will stretch leaving it more delicate and sensitive. Constantly changing temperatures from going inside and out can have a negative effect on your skin and so it is important to take a few extra precautions to make sure you are more comfortable and don’t suffer with common and irritable skin complaints.

With the festive season almost here, take advantage of being pregnant during this special time of year.
