Family Traditions.

So i grew up in a household that didn’t celebrate holidays for religious purposes. When i was old enough, I didn’t partake in the religion. We actually stopped attending when i was about 10 years old. Now that i have a daughter i want to start traditions. With the upcoming holiday season approaching, i would love to hear your family traditions. Some things i can google but hearing from real families, would be better.

Early symptoms

Would love to hear everyone’s early symptoms. I’m around 4 weeks and not really have many besides feeling bloated. When I was pregnant with my daughter I had Covid so I was just miserable in general

1st Birthday Party

We can’t decide whether to have a 1st birthday party for our baby boy or not? I just feel like it would be the easiest and best way for all of our family to see him (as I know everyone will want too) but I also can’t decide whether I’d rather we just spent the day together as a family of 3 ❤️
Will we then regret not having a party? 😭
Any advice would be much appreciated thanks x
