pineapples.!!

[Seymone]

So after eating alot of pineapple I started having the worst pains ever,I mean labor pains.then I get to the hospital they hook me up to motors and no contractions are seen. But I could feel them. Then I googled eating pineapples makes contractions start but they said it wasn't true, so I'm truly confused.?? Someone help

I m guessing u ll need to take gallons of it to induce labor... One glass of pineapple juice once in a while wont hurt... Its very good resource for blood pressure, heart burn and stomach indigestion... However as other ladies said if ur cramping persist and increasing by tiime or u start bleeding or loosing water just go to er straight away.... N oh cold pineapple juice is very good for calming anxiety... If u start diarrheo thn u r getting a side effect... Take care of urself. .. I would recommend lying down.... Keeping ur feet up until pains reduce or go away.... When i get bad cramps i usually stay in bed thn after a while it goes away... Pineapple is cold fruit so it can cause joints pain aswell...

Sorry my phone does that I wasn't trying to induce and I love pineapples too but I had no idea of the reactions it would have. When I told the doctors they said the pineapple thing want true

See with the comment ' I want trying to induce' I wasn't sure if it was, I wasn't, I was or even I want. With the horrible grammar and English I see on here I wasn't clear at all. Well then I'm in love w pineapple juice. It shouldnt be a problem right??

Fresh pineapple contains Bromelain which can also soften the cervix . But it is said that it takes large quantities to have any effect which can also result in diarrhea. Some women say that they’ve had zero problems having plenty of pineapple and pineapple and pineapple juice during pregnancy and others claim it brought on labour.

It depends on women to women.... I hve never been told to avoid pineapples as it is one of the old wives story... I dont think ur cramps were due to that... Pineapple is a good nutrition fruit could be possible its giving u other side effects such diarreheo or stomach cramps... Ur big colon goes through left side which can hurt when u r constipated or have loose motions...

What urs doctors have suggested?

Due Feb 7th. Why are you trying to induce??????????;;

[Seymone]

Omg, thank you.!!

[MrsKeener]

If the pain persists then go back. i had went in labor first time at 28 weeks

[Seymone]

That's what they told me, they gave me some milk like drink and sent me home

[MrsKeener]

And this is my second pregnancy and until reading this forum i had no idea those could start labor. I'm scared to eat them now! lol

[MrsKeener]

Sometimes back labor won't be seen on the monitors. my ex sil was like that and they sent her home while in active labor. told her she had gas. She had him within a few hours
