If I see one more pineapple post on the May boards..

I'm going to scream... seriously.

I don't know what's worse, posting "I ate pineapple today and had a couple of contractions" or really thinking the little bit of Bromelain (enzyme in pineapple) is going to instantly work and cause labor.

I've used Bromelain before, but in concentrated doses (pills) and for what it's actually used for, which is as an anti-inflammatory.

There really needs to be some form of IQ test given before women are allowed to get pregnant Smile 

O.K. That is all. Boy am I glad I don't spend much time on the birth month boards anymore.

    Ha!  Too funny!!  If pineapple really worked I would have delivered long ago (and I still have 12 more weeks).  I crave it and eat it almost daily.  Funny thing is I have NEVER heard that pineapple helps with labor. ???  The May board sounds a lot like the July board.  Some of the posts drive me freaking NUTS!  I just can't relate sometimes.  That's what I love about this board.  People are mature & sensible, without judgement.  Smile

    Very funny! I too, have never heard about pineapple.  The May board in general is ridiculous.  I realized last night when listening to the news about Bin Laden that half of that board was probably less than 15 years old 10 years ago... so I have to constantly remind myself not to expect too much on the subject matter.

    Thats why I haven't been on the May board in almost 2 weeks! They drive me NUTS!! the last post I read was them wondering where a lot of the posters have gone. and it seems to be just a few of them now. Umm, yeah, your all b!tchy, knowitall, kids!  but OMG, cbkjwedding, you are right! They were only that old. Holy shoes!
