Zookeeper used animals to track her baby bump's growth

It is pretty common to compare your growing bump to the sizes of fruits and vegetables, tracking your little one's development.

Well, one mum-to-be decided to compare her baby's size to something a bit more familiar... zoo animals.

Happy Halloween from the ocean Dews!

Jennifer Dew, a zookeeper from Ohio, is expecting her first baby, and has been tracking her bump's growth.

Rather than comparing it to fruit, we're going to compare it to animals in our collection. Baby Dew is roughly the size of Rufus the rat. #19weeks #aevillage #ratsarecool

Rather than comparing the size of her baby to an apple or an orange, Jennifer has been comparing the baby's size to that of various zoo animals that she works with... and it is pretty fantastic.

Today baby Dew is the same size as Mica the kinkajou (freakishly close actually... Only two grams difference). #squeaks #micajou #gottacatchemall #Gesundheit #godblessyou #honeybear #winniethedew

Jennifer has tracked her bump's growth from 19 weeks, comparing the size of her baby to a rat named Rufus.

So I'm a little late... Baby Dew last week weighed the same as my home girl Avery the Umbrella Cockatoo. #23weeks #shesgothollowbones #thebirdnotthebaby #recycle #reusewhatwehave #alarmclock

At 23 weeks, the baby weighed the same as Avery, an umbrella cockatoo from the zoo that Jennifer works at.

We are loving this personal touch on tracking the growth of Jennifer's unborn baby.

This week baby Dew weighs the same as Kramer the blue and gold macaw. #28weeks #shesgothollowbones #birdnerd #donotholdhercolorsagainsther #gobucks
