Grapes

I just googled something on the best fruits to eat while pregnant and saw on one site to avoid grapes while pregnant.  Anyone else heard/read this?  I am starting to get tired of apples,organges, and peaches!

I've never heard this, but maybe because they're pretty high in sugar?  My midwife just told me to make sure I have some protein when I eat a lot of fruit... like cheese.

Really? Why? What did the article say? Seems odd to me. I love grapes and eat them all the time.

I hope not, they are my favorite thing to eat right now!

I hope not because I'm pretty sure this kid is going to come out purple.

Did it say why?  I've been going through 2 bunches of grapes a week!!

There was no explanation at all....I'm going to keep digging.  I will post again if I find anything.

I eat them but maybe because of the pesticides used on grapes, i am too lazy to google it now but I think I read something that of all fruits grapes have a pretty high level of pesticides. I just wash them well and sometimes choose organic if i can find them.

I haven't heard this one yet, but I'm going to continue to eat them because I crave them all the time. I especially like to put them in the freezer for a few hours before I eat them...yes its strange but they are delicious.
