DECEMBER: Scientifically Best baby making MONTH!!

For those who don't want to end up with a baby in 2014 thanks to a drunken festive fling, she has the following advice.

If you're on the pill, try and take it at a regular time each morning in December, perhaps leaving the packet on your bedside table as a reminder for you, if you're tempted to forget. If you use a barrier method of contraception, such as a cap, pop it in before you go out for the evening.

Alternatively, invest in a few festive condoms -- there are loads of fun varieties available - and keep those in your bag or again, on the bedside table. That way you'll be making seasonal merriment without making a baby!
