‘Geriatric’ Coffee Convos; Who’s Living Their Best ‘Beautiful Flannel Life’ With Us This Holiday Season?!
On this episode the ‘Geriatric’ Mamas talk about the app that their friends and family are using to track their kids, recap their very surprising pumpkin patch experience and then they lean in to Christmas with their rendition of the Hallmark Movie Countdown… mostly for the November 9th release about a pair of BFFs who seem to have a lot to accomplish this holiday season. Also, it’s Fertility week in the UK, so the Mamas highlight one British article with fertility myths to weigh in on. And finally, they discuss what’s on the podcast schedule for the holidays and how to find fun local holiday events to celebrate with your family and friends! Enjoy Mama!

Mentioned in this episode:
Life360 is the app everyone is telling the ‘Geriatric’ Mamas about for tracking children and other things… The app that helps people stay connected and coordinated through location sharing, messaging, and roadside assistance.

Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas officially began on October 18th… and since then, Hallmark has released 6 of the 32 new Holiday movies that are coming out this year… Sonia and Jessica are specifically looking forward to watching "Holiday Crashers", released 11/9/24; about two best friends who make up fake identities to crash Christmas parties, and they’re unexpectedly pushed down paths that could lead one to love—and the other to her life's purpose.
Fertility Week is happening in the UK, it runs from 11/4-8… so writer Lisa Salmon wrote an article for Independent TV about the Myths of Infertility that brought up a lot of good ones that the Mamas haven’t mentioned in a while!

Have your journey to motherhood featured on the Geriatric Mamas podcast!
So many women have kept their fertility struggles a secret, and endured their pain alone. It doesn’t need to feel so isolating.
If you or someone you know is 35+ and struggled with fertility, experienced heartbreaking fostering or adoption challenges, endured a miscarriage, or were perhaps flat out told by a doctor that you will never conceive naturally, and eventually found your happy ending by becoming a mama, your story could be what keeps another woman going on her journey to her miracle baby!
Send us your story and it could be featured on the next HOPEisode!
xx, Sonia and Jessica
