I get jealous of bigger fruit

mhalpert · June 2012

I honestly make myself laugh, because I know I'm being ridiculous, but when I'm reading the posts and see another person's ticker I feel really jealous when they have a bigger fruit than me. I catch my self thinking "Why does she get to have a raspberry? I want a raspberry..."

I haven't had any m/s, but I think i've just gone a little insane instead.

At least you're out of the seed range now! When I was still a poppy seed or apple seed and other people were full blown fruits, I would be annoyed.

hahahahahhahahaha (I want to bolden the 'gone a little insane instead' remark but can't on my mac)

Well your sweetpea beats my appleseed.

This is why I switched to elephants, lol

lylahlove · June 2012

LOL this made me chuckle because I was the same way last time

Holly520 · June 2012

I feel the same. I just keep reminding myself that I'll get there eventually.

Shaungela · June 2012

Hahahahahaha that's why i didn't choose the fruit ticker lol

Synth · June 2012

I do the same thing. I'll be a sweetpea on Monday, but it doesn't feel like it's soon enough! Then come Monday I'll be dying to be the next step up, lol

buggirl72 · June 2012

Haha! My DH even knows what fruit we are! Come on raspberry (but of course I already want to be a green olive)!

kelly321 · June 2012

I will refer you back to my confession on Friday ;-) With my 1st two pregnancies (DD and a m/c), I was at the very end of the month. I'm really excited that this time I'm at least in the middle and not at the end! So I know how you feel :-)

Strawberry9 · June 2012

It's hard being at the end of the month! I agree!

melissaclaireJ · June 2012

Hey I'll trade you my blueberry for no morning sickness! I am ready for the baby to start looking human... I think its like in the 9th week.

JoniU26 · June 2012

I was loving my small seeds, til I started with the morning sickness, so now I get way jealous of the bigger fruits because it means they are probably out of the m/s stage!!

tiffanyp · June 2012

LOL! I was at the end of the December board last time, so I know how you feel. It also sucked when everyone else had all their pregnancy milestones before me. I'm happy to have a Feb. 1st due date this time

Haha this is totally true! Except the green olive is ugly, so I really am not jealous of that one, but I was so excited to be a raspberry this week lol!

Haha I totally agree with the green olive being ugly. I think we need to get a cuter fruit in there! I totally get where some of you are coming from; I was at the end of the month with DS. I will say I enjoyed being at the end of the month once DS was born though because I always got a really good sneak peak at what to expect next.

The green olive makes me hungry. I want bigger fruit because maybe then I will feel more pregnant.

Tarin Leigh · June 2012

Hahaha... this post cracked me up!! I feel the same way!

Drea926 · June 2012

Haha! I feel the same way too!

It's funny how much the fruit comparison is so prevalent - I was talking to another pregnant woman at work and was saying, "Oh I'm only a blueberry" and she responded with, "I'm an eggplant!"

And they have got to find something better than a prune! A strawberry perhaps?

This! I think the prune is super ugly too! I like your strawberry idea!

My last pregnancy DH asked "When is the baby Schnozberry sized?" (Like from the wallpaper in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory) So we decided that a schnozberry is probably the same size as a prune, and substituted accordingly.

I completely understand lol... I know I feel ridiculous too! But I think because my due date is towards the end of the month, I feel behind....I can only laugh at myself for how ridiculous it is!

scm306 · June 2012

This thread is hilarious!!! I always feel relieved when I see other people who are also apple seeds like me!

paceyjoe · June 2012

Love this post! I count down the days for new fruits! I was super excited for raspberry and now I can't wait until olive! Only 4 more days haha!

same! the fruits are killing me! especially because i'm not sure if i'm 7 or 8 weeks...

alkvoelker · July 2012

I've been waiting to get olive-sized and now I want to be a peach. I really can't believe I'm almost 9 weeks, it seems like only yesterday we found out and then we were mustard seed size!

theimpossibleastronaut · July 2012

Lol I sometimes look at the bigger fruits on 1st Tri and then look at the calendar to calculate what date my baby will be lime or prune sized.

TheNewMrsY · July 2012

I totally have big fruit envy!!

jmlind · July 2012

Okay I know this is from ages ago, but I am still really jealous of other fruits. Especially after being bumped down 5 days. I just turned olive and already want to go prune!!!

LOL. Do you have the WTE app for your phone? It's really satisfying because it starts to bump you up twice a week around week 8.
