Pineapple

im craving it and it is sitting in my stomach and making me happy. But apparently it is not a good idea. What's the deal? How much is too much? I found a can of pineapple in my pantry, is it safe to eat it all or should I let DH eat it?

I've never heard pineapple being bad when pregnant. I'm curious now though, I have one sitting on my counter I've been drooling over.

Are you concerned about the OWT that pineapple can help induce labor?  Because I can assure you, when I was late to deliver both of my kids I ate my weight in pineapple and it didn't do a thing.  Enjoy your snack!

Fresh pineapple is what supposedly induces labor and that's like ten pineapples at once. Enjoy!

Plus the stuff in pinnacle that supposedly induces labor is in the core. You have to like eat a bunch of pinnacle core and not the normal part.

I've been craving pineapple and eating it like crazy. I don't think I know anyone who was able to induce labor with pimneaple anyway.

yeah.. it didn't help me go into labor last time (I was 40+10 days when I delivered.. I was not trying to induce early at all). Just an old wive's tale.. or as others have said, would be ridiculous quantities.

I know UNripe papaya is abortive. My SIL found out on the hard way. She used to eat them every morning and she likes it ripe. She lost 2 babies and when  she found the info online about papaya she asked her Dr. He did a research and confirmed. Years later I received some materials from Cigna and they were talking about avoiding papaya.
I don't know about pineapple.

I had to edit: UNRIPE PAPAYA (when it is green, not orange) is dangerous. (english drives me crazy sometimes! I thought ripe was when it is green yet! I am sorry for the miscommunication )
