Almost 36 weeks now and craving pineapple so badly. But my MIL keeps saying pineapple is dangerous and can cause problems in pregnancy. Is there any truth to this or is it just one of those old beliefs?

A normal amount of ripe pineapple is fine, the scary stories are about eating huge quantities. I had a few pieces here and there with no issue. Just dont go eating bowls of it daily.
Beta our elders are careful with pineapple, they say a lot of it can heat the body. A little in moderation is okay, but dont overdo it especially near the end. If unsure, ask your doctor.
I panicked when someone said pineapple causes labour, but my gynac laughed and said you would have to eat a crazy amount for that. A normal serving is totally fine. So dont stress over a few pieces yaar.
