What is that book that tells you what kind of fruit your baby is this week? I think I will need to know.

I think babycentre.com (not .co.uk) does this eg week 7 your baby is the size of a blueberry

hope all is ok

The Rough Guide to Pregnancy is written in a weekly diary style, and I think each (or at least many) entries tell you what size you baby is in terms of fruit and veg.

Veg too? Brilliant! I'd always thought it'd be both awesome and a bit silly to imagine a tangerine inside me etc. Not even blueberry size yet but next week will be sesame seed, didn't want to miss any Grin

The week of the watermelon 'might not actually have been watermelon, but something equally humongous) alarmed me- but if you are at poppy seeds just now, that's a bit off yet! ;)

catsofa if you download the BabyBump app it tells you what fruit/veg you are at any given point. The daily tips can be useful too Smile

If you put 'baby fruit size' into pinterest or google images you get some great infographics.

A bit scary though -don't think I can fit a pumpkin in there. Glad I don't know what a jackfruit is!

PUMPKIN?!?!?!

Now I see it I do know what a jackfruit is, they have them in local asian veg shops and the big spikes all over the outside are even more worrying than the size.

The baby fruit book?

The What to Expect pregnancy app does this.

very concerned by the watermelon reference too.

I have this app too I'm currently and advacado. I hate them yuk. There is a melon on there too but think the reference is the length of fruit not overall circumference.
