Week 25: The Red Flags To Monitor And Debunking The 'Geriatric' Myth

Welcome to Hello Bump, a podcast about what you're not expecting when you're expecting. In this episode, hosts Jana Pittman and Grace Rouvray reveal your baby is now the size of a papaya, or a wide-brimmed fedora. At week 25, we discuss the important red flag symptoms to watch for, particularly those related to preeclampsia, and share tips for managing those uncomfortable night-time leg cramps. Also Grace, who just turned 35, asks Jana about the term "geriatric pregnancy" and what it means for her care moving forward. THE END BITS: Discover more Mamamia podcasts here.
