Maternity photo question help!!

Hello everyone. I plan on doing my maternity photos in January sometime between 32-34 weeks pregnant. I saw some ideas on pinterest that have hot cocoa and candy canes and i loveeee those ideas. My friend told me her opinion that january is "too late" to use hot cocoa and candy canes in my pictures. Is she right? 😩 i figured january is still WINTER...? Thats the theme im going for Is winter (not christmas theme).. Help. Im devastated lol.
