28 weeks pregnant – Our baby is the size of an aubergine

This week’s vegetable makes me smile. We eat aubergine occassionally but when I hear it’s name it makes me laugh. When I was younger this vegetable was responsible for me mixing up song lyrics and embarrassing myself.

I love Elton John and I thought I knew most of the words to his songs. Unfortunately I didn’t realise that Marilyn Monroe’s real name was Norma Jean. This led to me singing, ‘Goodbye Aubergine!’ I still haven’t lived that down!

At 28 weeks our baby is starting to fill out. His wrinkly skin will soon become smooth. He would also have a good chance of survival if he was born now. Hopefully he will stay cooking for a while longer yet though.

Sorry about the blurry photograph! This has happened a couple of times with my fruit & veg photos but I haven’t realised until weeks later when I have come to put the photo together. By then my bump is bigger. Hopefully they will look alright in the final collage!

    I never thought about comparing the baby’s size to vegetables. Maybe you just started a new trend in the blogging community. I hope everything goes well and good luck!
