Is pineapple good or bad?

Question

I just ate a few spears of pineapple thinking that because it's fruit it must be good for me and baby. I googled what vitamins are in it and to generally see what benefits me and baby get from pineapple. And I found a ton of articles about pineapple causing miscarriage and softening the cervix....should I be concerned???

Answer

You'd have to eat like 6 whole pineapples. You'd make yourself sick before anything happened.

Answer

Don't worry!
 
It's thought that eating pineapple softens the cervix and therefore can help induce labour, but you would need to eat like 3 pineapples a day before this would actually happen ☺

Answer

Don't worry now tho likely nothing will happen!! You sound like me I googled every food I ate! 😃😃don't worry it won't do anything from eating it once

Answer

My doctor told me not to eat more than 2/3 cup a day. Hope that helps some!

Thanks everyone! I appreciate it. I know Google can be the worst sometimes lol I'm a FTM so I google everything right now but I know I can't believe everything I read!

Answer

Fresh pineapple is so good! I haven't avoided it at all during this pregnancy. The amount needed to cause problems is immense (I heard several lbs). And even the "science" on that is debatable. Ask your doc at your next appt.

Now I'm craving pineapple!

Answer

I ate an entire pineapple trying to induce (39& 3) 
Nothing. Baby comes when baby is ready. A healthy baby won't miscarry. If you miscarry and had eaten pineapple it is most likely becaus the fetus wasn't healthy.

Answer

I have regularly eaten pineapple throughout my pregnancy with no problems, I'm 33 weeks.

Answer

😳 this is the first I've heard about this! I've been eating a serving or two of pineapple everyday for the past 37 weeks and have had a wonderful, healthy pregnancy.

Answer

Googling anything is horrible😄 I think that if you're concerned about anything then just ask your doctor😊 but eating anything healthy is okay!
