The patient is not 25 years old but she dictates these numbers and I am unsure how to type it for it to make sense.  It sounds like she is saying, "patient is 25 and 5/7 weeks gestational age.  Do they dictate gestational age by the 7ths for days of the week?  Would you type it 25-5/7 week gestational age?
