Awww - my little chinese cabbage.....
What the heck? Where do they come up with these vegetables?
I subscribe to an email that gives me weekly updates on Sam and his growth through babycenter.com. It's a great service and I love getting the fun updates. However, they come up with the weirdest fruits and vegetables to compare his size to! Let's just go over a few:
At 4 weeks, he was the size of a poppy seed. Ok, understandable. He's small - very small.
At 10 weeks, he was the size of a kumquat.
At 11 weeks - a fig. A FIG?!?!?
Then his size goes from a lime, to a medium shrimp, then to a lemon over the next few weeks. Hmmm......shrimp??? Did he somehow shrink and then grow again that week?
At 25 weeks - he was the size of a rutabaga. Yea. Ok.
At 26 weeks - he was the size of an English hothouse cucumber. Not just a cucumber, but an English hothouse one?
At 32 weeks - he will be the size of a large jicama???
At 37 weeks - he's the size of a Swiss chard - ok...I'm scared.
However, as long as I can get through week 33 before going into labor - because this is something I would not want to endure....delivering a pineapple...OUCH!
