Is a plum bigger than a lime?

[MissyBlaze]

I'm a plum now! I feel like that's smaller than a lime... confusing.

 

[mitchnorm]

I thought that...I am just approachin lime....

I suppose you do get some big plums

 

[Clareybeary]

Lol! I soooo know what you mean! I would say plum comes before lime!

 

[chinita]

I think they just ran out of fruit to compare babies too lol

 

[Nimoo]

i totally agree i would say lime next time im out food shopping im going to compare the two haha

 

[citymouse]

Maybe they meant a key lime...? Lol, I've seen some pretty little ones!

 

[jenniferttc1]

I feel like im back to the size of a lime, with my lemon. Ready for wed. so i'll be an orange!

 

[baby D]

maybe a plumb is fuller/fatter than a lime? Heavier? Lol!

 

[citymouse]

These fruits crack me up! The apple seed I never understood... unless they were going by the width and not the length...? Anyway, I'm glad to be an almost-olive.

I've been telling people they mean a Key Lime 'cos they are smaller (even though the picture isn't a Key Lime imo!!

Still can't understand why a Plum comes next though?! haha!

i lime is definatley bigger than a plum i have both in my fridge and have just gone and compared the lime is actually the size and a half of the plum silly ticker makers need to check their fruit lol x

I aslo have both in my fridge but my plums are bigger than the limes looool I think they mean the little key limes not the ones closer in size to the lemons. also here in the states you can find some pretty big plums

I've done photo-a-week of the baby with the fruit pics and all the limes at our store were tiny, tiny ones; much smaller than a lemon or plum. lol. I think it entirely depends on the type of fruit or vegetable they're discussing. I don't measure them to be 'precise' with the inches that the bump website lists, but some of them make me pretty skeptical... lol.

 

[tiggerz]

Depends which variety of plum lol

I've seen some small key west limes. compare to plums it is much smaller. you can see the comparison from common limes and key limes here: https://sparks-mexico.com/costalegre/fruit/key-lime.htm

Ha ha. "Can I help you find something?" "No, I'm just trying to figure out whether my fetus is the size of a lime or a plum. Are these your smallest limes?"

 

[pcake]

I drove,my boyfriend mad asking this same question! Everytime we went shopping I'd be comparing them!! I know what u mean, there are a few fruits that feel like a step backwards! The sizing comparison with fruit doesn't seem to make total sense sometimes!... Iv just been an egg plant for 3 weeks and just became a squash yesterday! Plus I'm 29 weeks but there are only 2 mire fruits' to go!! Eeeeeek!

 

[MissyBlaze]

Ha ha! Thank goodness it's not just me. Oh well, I've got my scan tomorrow so i'll pop to the supermarket afterwards and measure ALL the fruit to decide!
