Eating fresh pineapple to help induce labor?

  If eating pineapple induced labor I would have gone early with both my kids. But then again I didn't rub it on my skin or shove it up my hoo ha. Perhaps that is why it didn't work. Damn where was this thread with my other pregnancies!?

  Yes i did this with Dh and it indecued my labor a few hours later

  
  

  You ate pineapple with DH and it induced your labor? You mean I have to spend time with my DH?

  
  

  JK. Sort of. He's kind of driving me insane lately.

  
  
  
  Lol sorry i meant to put DD now reading it it does sound pretty funny with Dh

  Now that I think about it I DID eat a lot of pineapple this pregnancy.  I'll have to let my OB know THAT's why DS came early.

  Oh, and you also have to wear your Banana Republic cardigans like @flerlgirl‌ mentioned and also you have to follow up by eating some thin mints.

  Do they have to be pineapple colored?

  Damn. You know a thread is going to be good when the app won't even let you open it.
  
  Pineapple for everyone! Eat it, wear it, shove it up to your cervix. Maybe if all our baby daddies eat it, sex will actually induce labor.

  I am pretty sure at least one of them has to be. You have to put them all on. Inducing labor cannot be easy, you know.

  of course they have to be pineapple-colored…why do I even bother

  Do you just have to be near the fresh pineapple? Do you have to eat it? Do you rub it all over you like the lotion from Silence of the Lambs? Inquiring minds needs to know. 

  I've been shoving the whole thing up my hoo-ha 3x a day since I hit 37 weeks. No signs of labor yet but it's only been 2 days.

   

  I'm still new at this but I'll share what i've learned so far: Put it in top down. Also, never put it in sideways.
  

  Damn! I've just been putting the odd piece or two up there.  I used the canned kind.  SHOULD I SWITCH TO FREAH?!

  Nope. Twerking is not involved in the induction process. 

  Miley would be so disappointed.

  My dd is currently eating pineapple....how does this affect my chances of going into labor soon? Most I'll get out of it is sloppy two year old pineapple kisses later.

  Smh. Doesn't anybody know how to correctly peel & core a pineapple?
  
  
  
  This method makes it much easier to use effectively ladies. Less wear and tear.

  Where can I buy that? ?

  
  

  We have one like the one below that slices at the same time. I love my gadgets.

  @LoHerrim @Read247 - We recieved ours as a wedding gift from Crate and Barrel (https://www.crateandbarrel.com/pineapple-corer-slicer-with-wedger/f23901).

  
  

  I may or may not have a severe gadget addiction that isn't limited to kitchen items.

  That could be taken in many directions. I vote for gadgets that helped you land on this board if you know what I mean

  I just let my entire left arm fall asleep so I could read my phone at an awkward angle because it's on the charger just so I could read this whole thread. Thanks for the laugh ladies! Now I need to buy some pineapple, I'll be 38 weeks Friday so I guess I need to get a move on!
