Ok, so every week I get an email about what fruit or vegetable is most similar to my babies current development size. Olives, plums, lemons, etc. At first it was cute, but now sometimes I find it comical. For instance, I'm an onion now that I'm 17 weeks along - well last week I was an avocado. Kevin said out loud what I was thinking, " what is the difference between an onion and avocado" ... I don't know. Some future listings are bananas, hothouse cucumbers, cauliflower... rutabaga (huh?? isn't that a type of car). Also, sometimes they throw in a similar weighing item. This week my baby weighs what a turnip weighs. I am not sure I've even ever held a turnip let alone remember how much it weighed. They have countdowns and t-shirts that have these fruits and veggies listed. Can you see me sporting around a t-shirt that says 'My baby is a cantaloupe" I'll admit it does bring a quirky fun angle to pregnancy and I will be VERY VERY scared when it says I'm holding a watermelon or small pumpkin - YIKES!!
