I ate plenty of it during pregnancy. </p> <p>During my last few days of pregnancy, my husband bought one for our 4th anniversary (fruit is one of the traditional gifts) since it was a way to induce. I ate the hell out of that pineapple after weeks of false labor. He came the next day- so it didn't hurt! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2222282 Tue, 30 Jun 2015 00:15:27 +0000 MsMini 2222282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oddly, pineapple was one of the few foods I could stomach when I had hyperemesis, so I was eating something in the neighbourhood of a pineapple each day for a while. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2222275 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 23:11:58 +0000 stiletto_mom 2222275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everything in moderation!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2222232 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 21:20:55 +0000 autumnlove 2222232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I love pineapple right now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2222230 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 21:18:39 +0000 delight 2222230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ate pineapple throughout my pregnancy. At 40w I ate a whole pineapple (not the core) to try and induce labour. Not sure if it was the pineapple or the fact that I was 40w, but labour started a few hours later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2222224 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 21:09:05 +0000 Anagram 2222224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is an old wives' tale.

I don't eat a ton anyway because my mouth is sensitive during pregnancy and pineapple is too acidic.

It's in moderation. I do love eating fruit but out of all the fruits available now, these two fruits are not my favorite. I'll eat it but I definitely don't eat a ton. Now, honeydew, watermelon, cherries, nectarines and peaches, I do eat a serving or two about once a day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2221793 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 14:03:53 +0000 mrscobee 2221793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have eaten tons of strawberries, and I have eaten pineapple. It seems like no matter what the food, there is someone, somewhere who does not believe it should be eaten while pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2221790 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 14:03:16 +0000 mediagirl 2221790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mama Bird: hahaha really!?!?

Uh oh... I was eating them all winter! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2221781 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 13:58:28 +0000 Mama Bird 2221781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've eaten it, but not a lot because cutting it up is such a pain. I've got a whole one in the fridge now though... yum! It's supposed to help induce labor, but I think it's one of those things that won't work until your body is ready... if it works at all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2221778 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 13:57:53 +0000 mrsjyw 2221778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, still eat pineapple... MIL always brings over fruit trays and that's what I usually eat the most of, that or strawberries! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2221776 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 13:57:27 +0000 mediagirl 2221776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2PeasinaPod: well, I just read this in another article, which made me laugh: "you’d probably need to eat between seven and 10 whole pineapples– in one sitting— to take in enough bromelain for it to be problematic"</p> <p>I think I ate some while pregnant but it just made my heartburn worse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2221775 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 13:57:16 +0000 avivoca 2221775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, but only because I hate pineapple. Usually, I can tolerate it in stuff, but I couldn't even eat anything that had come into contact with it while pregnant. Blech. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2221771 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 13:56:10 +0000 MoonMoon 2221771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No!

Is that a food you're supposed to stay away from? Whoops. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-stop-eating-pineapple-during-pregnancy#post-2221767 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 13:54:43 +0000 mediagirl 2221767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read something today (random google search brought it up) that said you should never eat pineapple during pregnancy. The article was kind of wacko, though so I'm thinking it may have been more of an opinion piece rather than a medical piece. </p> <p>Did you eat pineapple while pregnant? Did you stop because of something you heard about it? </p>
