How big is it???

I have been reading all the pregnancy books and literature people have been so generous in giving to me over the past couple of months. I have discovered that I have read some conflicting information. For instance... how big is the baby? One book says that my baby is as big as an apple, the Internet says my baby is about 2 inches long and weighs about 1/2 an ounce, yet another piece of reading material tells me by baby is about 4 inches long. So my question in all of this rambling is this... How big is it? If my baby is already as big as an apple, hold on to your hats because I' m gonna have a baby that will qualify for Guinness Book of World Records. On the other hand if my baby should be the size of an apple and it is only about 2 inches long then I'm gonna give birth to a fidget (that's midget for those that don't get the joke)! So at this point in my pregnancy, how big is the baby supposed to be? Does anyone have any idea?

one book i really like and usually stick with on things like this is "your pregnancy week by week" by glade curtis. i like it because it gives a crown to rump measurement that does not include legs, stomach, head size and then it gives a fruit type to give you a further idea of size and body mass.
