I was craving pineapple so bad and reached for it, then my MIL stopped me saying its not good in pregnancy. Now im scared even though i love it. Is there really something to worry about?
Honestly I was too scared to eat it at all because of all the warnings online, I kept overthinking. Later my doctor laughed and said a little is harmless. Wish I had just asked her earlier instead of stressing.
Beta our elders always said avoid pineapple in pregnancy, that is the old belief. In small amount it is fine according to doctors now. But if you feel any discomfort, just leave it and stick to other fruits na.
I asked my gynac about this exact thing. She said normal amounts of pineapple are fine, the whole bromelain scare is mostly about huge quantities which nobody really eats. So a few pieces now and then is okay, just dont overdo it.
Actually I had pineapple a few times during pregnancy, nothing happened yaar. People scare you so much about it. Just dont eat a whole one in one go and you are fine.
Ugh I craved pineapple so badly in my second trimester. I just kept it to a small bowl once in a while and enjoyed it guilt free. Cravings are real but moderation is the magic word.
