How do I deal with being childless at Christmas?

Christmas is challenging for all sorts of people for all sorts of reasons. I was keen to speak to two women Jody Day and Kelly Da Silva about their survival tips for Christmas when you are childless. Both women share their stories and both have great survival hacks. Know you're not alone, make a note of their Facebook groups listed below and make sure you have them on your phone for those moments, over the festive period where someone says something without thinking and you find yourself wanting to run out the door.
