Hello [*data('91.salutation')|html*],

Welcome to your week 25 pregnancy update. There's help at hand here for some of the unwelcome things you may be experiencing.
 
You and your baby
 
  
 
 
Foetus at 25 weeks
 
Your baby at 25 weeks

You're probably feeling your baby quite a bit more now – it can feel like they're doing aerobics classes in there! It's nice to touch the bump to let them know you are near, and you might even be rewarded with a little hand touching back.
 
You at 25 weeks

Ouch. Leg cramps still? Remember it's a very common side effect of pregnancy and nothing to worry about. If they are happening at night, try a warm bath before bed and prop your feet up a few cm in bed. Pilates can strengthen your back and pelvic floor, which need to be strong during the birth.

Tips for you
  
 
 
Pregnant woman sat with her feet up
 
 
Pregnancy: ballooning ankles

Three solutions to this common problem. First, when you sit, put your feet up on a stool. Second, go for a 10 minute stroll to stimulate circulation. Third, avoid tight shoes. If you have swelling in your face or hands, however, do check with your doctor.

Nutrition: spice is nice


Some women worry about eating spicy or richly flavoured foods. But there's no need. Baby only detects a few aroma molecules and at this early stage of their 1000 day development so herbs and spices won't matter. If you crave them, tuck in.
