pineapple

So I've heard that eating pineapple can bring on  labor, but only if you eat 7-10 whole ones.
I cut up a pineapple yesterday, and it was so good, I ended up eating most of it myself. Including the core. I just woke up because my stomach started to hurt. I'm only 15 weeks. And the pain is mostly on my right side, which is where my belly is starting to harden. What is happening?!

When i found out i was pregnant my husband took me to the hospital to do another test so as to confirm the pregnancy, (first time parents)
The doctor there told me not to eat pinapple and papaya bc it was not safe. But seriously when i google it now it feels so stupid about what the doctor said bc u have to eat a ton of it for labour to start,

You'd have to eat multiple entire pineapples in a ridiculously small amount of time to kick start labor with our any other indication that it might come on. It sounds a little like Braxton Hicks (since your belly is hardening) or your uterus or round ligaments stretching, all of which is perfectly normal. I agree though, if you are ever seriously concerned about something definitely call your doctor or midwife! They are there to help you.

Probably just your uterus lining stretching. . Totally normal.  But if you're that worried call your doctor
