Its my birthday this weekend and everyone keeps saying pineapple is not safe in pregnancy. But its just a cake na, very little actual fruit. Now im confused should i avoid or its fine?
I literally panicked after eating a bite of pineapple pastry and called my gynac crying! She laughed and said I would need to eat 10 whole raw pineapples for any danger. You are totally fine, enjoy!
I am in my 18th week and just ate a slice yesterday! Did your doctor suggest avoiding any specific fruits, or are you just asking because of the general myths?
Generally cake is safe, but if you have had any bleeding or pregnancy complications, please check with your doctor before eating things you are unsure about. Safety first always.
In our family, elders advise avoiding raw pineapple strictly. But when I asked my doctor about pineapple flavored cake, she said it's totally safe as there is no real fruit extract that can harm. So go ahead and eat peacefully.
I had thyroid and had to strictly monitor my diet and sugars, but my doctor allowed me a small slice of cake occasionally. Just keep your regular checkups in mind and ask your doc if you are tracking your glucose.
Oh sweetheart, please don't deprive yourself of a little sweetness! It is totally normal to crave cake right now, and pineapple cake is absolutely fine since it's baked and uses very little actual fruit. Enjoy your slice!
Mere pregnancy ke time mummy and papa wouldn't let me eat actual pineapple because of old beliefs. But they happily bought me pineapple cake on my birthday because it is baked and totally safe! Just eat a normal portion.
I ate pineapple cake a couple of times during my second trimester and had no issues at all. The baking process neutralizes everything, so it is quite safe. Just have it in moderation.
Yes, you can eat it without any worries. The myth is about raw pineapple in huge quantities, but a slice of cake has almost no real bromelain to cause issues. Just watch the sugar content.
