Just googled soursop and read about what it's supposed to taste like, and now I want one so freaking bad. I've never even heard of it but I want one. The nutritional facts on Wikipedia for it has almost everything that's in the prenatal vitamins, so I don't think it's bad.

Idk i would be a little more with your doctor. The internet is a scary place and sometimes gives out false info as well. I say really go with what you feel is right for you. Maybe keep eating them but not too often or if youre too worried too stop eating them for now. In the end its all your decision.

A study was on the news a few days ago that taking Tylenol often in pregnancy leads to ADHD.

Yeah i had asked my ob about this and she say there is nothing wrong eating a fruit. And soursop is a fruit she said. This is why i went shopping with this soursop. Then only learned tru internet that this is not safe for pregnancy. So confused

Soursop is to be eaten in moderation during pregnancy. Too much consumption can cause contraction in the uterine lining bringing on early labour causing miscarriage. I had a miscarriage , then  I found out it was the Southall, I was having a lot of it.

Everything we eat is now "bad". Moderation is key.

They also say hit dogs are not safe during pregnancy. They just have to put the warning out there to cover their rumps in case something happens then mothers cant blame them. Odds are if you are moderate and careful it wont harm your baby. Like i said... hot dogs are now a "danger" to our babies. It really just means to take caution and keep a ear out for recalls or break outs.
