This week, Jen and Rachel share some strategies for embracing the holiday season with little ones.  They reflect on how the holiday celebrations have changed after babies, and discuss some of the challenges like leveling expectations and rebounding from thwarted plans amidst the chaos of cold and flu season.  

Jen also gives an overview of some of the new services that Bloom After Baby plans to launch in the new year, including online courses and small group online classes.
