Your baby is the size of ... (Christmas item)

So each week I find out the size of my baby in terms of fruit and veg. What size will your baby be on 25th December in terms of Christmas-themed things?

I reckon mine will be a Christmas cracker (22 weeks).

Who has a currant, a brussel sprout, a satsuma, a Terry's chocolate orange, a turkey crown or a full sized baby Jesus? Can we work out a suggestion for each week?

Hmm, well last week I was a cauliflower, so I'm going to say Christmas pudding at 28 weeks. Or a cabbage!

Judging by his current measurements I would be inclined to say Santa and all his reindeer but in reality he's probably turkey sized. I'm currently 33w.

Knits no no no - I have the ovia app, and it has a setting where it tells you the size of the baby compared to baked parisian goods Grin Last week (23 weeks) was aready a LARGE yule log! So 25 weeks would need to be even bigger.

This week (24 weeks) is a demi-baguette. And also a puffin(which freaked me out a bit...)

We must be near due date buddies! I'm due 7 April.
