@Megan it spooked me because I noticed some changes at almost 37 weeks
@Megan thank you!
It’s an old wives tale. Eat the pineapples if you crave it, it’s very good for you anyway. I can’t eat too much coz my mouth goes all numb and tingly but I can have a handful
@Kellie I love it so much
I was the same. I craved them bad & ate a container full, but I’m told you would have to consume A LOT of pineapple lol. Enjoy! 🍍
They don’t start labour they help soften your cervix which will speed up the labour when you are in it. I ate pineapple trying to start it at 37 weeks and didn’t go into labour till 41+4. But my labour was only 2.5 hours long x
With my first I ate about 100 dates to ripen my cervix and it wouldn’t budge. You’d probably have to eat an insurmountable amount of pineapples, a few pieces here and there are probably fine. You can always ask your OB to confirm.
@Megan I have a bowl of it that I got from the store that I’ve been working on for a few days now the bowl is huge and I just finished it. It’s all I want
