Is pineapple ok to eat during pregnancy?

Question

I ate few pieces of pineapple at a party and then my aunt scared me saying pregnant women should avoid it. I am 13 weeks and now feeling guilty for no reason maybe. Did anyone eat pineapple safely?

I had a sensitive pregnancy so I avoided it mostly to be safe. If you have any history of complications pls check with ur doctor before adding it regularly.

Ohh I was craving pineapple so bad in my 5th month haha. I had small portions and it was fine. Just dont go overboard yaar.

A normal amount of pineapple is generally fine, it's the very large quantities people worry about. I ate it sometimes in my pregnancy with no issue. But every body is different so doctor's advice is best.

At home my amma also said go slow with pineapple in early months. A little is ok, I had it later in pregnancy. Trust ur gynac if u have any doubt.

Small amount is ok. Dont eat tons of it na.

Just one thing, pineapple is sweet so if ur sugar is being watched keep the quantity small. Otherwise a slice or two is okay. My diet was tracked so I was careful with all fruits.

Beta in our time elders always said avoid too much pineapple, esp the core part. A small slice now and then is fine but dont eat a whole one daily. Better ask ur doctor also.
