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?

Mine is the size of Santa Claus himself and it better have evacuated my uterus by the 25th!

PrincessPunzie · 17/12/2015 11:18

I'll be 16+5, so I reckon about the size of a Chocolate Orange :)

Icklepickle101 · 17/12/2015 11:28

I think a large turkey crown / whole cabbage - 35 weeks Xmas Grin

InsufficientlyCaffeinated · 17/12/2015 11:42

Mine is probably a very small sprout (8 wks)

brookeberry · 17/12/2015 11:44

Mine will be a cracker too! Smile

brookeberry · 17/12/2015 11:44

5hell · 17/12/2015 12:07

IamChipmunk · 17/12/2015 12:10

I'll be 9 weeks at Xmas so probably a sprout!!

ThePug · 17/12/2015 12:23

I'll be 29 weeks so maybe a luxury chocolate yule log. Or a panettone?

BexusSugarush · 17/12/2015 13:07

38 weeks and I feel like she's the size of a Christmas tree.

Jw35 · 17/12/2015 13:21

I think sprout (8 weeks)

Mordirig · 17/12/2015 13:30

I think a large sprout/descent sized chestnut or a large king prawn.
I will be 9+3 on Christmas day.

MyNameIsSuz · 17/12/2015 13:34

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

KnitsBakesAndReads · 17/12/2015 14:09

I love this thread! I'll be 25 weeks so I guess maybe the size of a small chocolate yule log?

wonkylegs · 17/12/2015 14:25

Mine will be a small Christmas cracker - 20+5 on 25th

TheGreaterGood · 17/12/2015 14:41

I'll be 11+2 so perhaps a clementine? Or a piece of coal if i'm on the naughty list... Grin

JE1234 · 17/12/2015 14:44

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.

waxweasel · 17/12/2015 16:40

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.

allinall · 17/12/2015 16:51

Mine will be the size of a six foot Christmas tree. He is 25 years old though! (Misses the point of the thread entirely....)

Stylingwax · 17/12/2015 16:58

Bloody turkey
