I'm Currently Feeling: | Hiya,
I tried pineapple with my second and third pregnancies as both went over, I now cannot stand pineapple as it didn't work. But everyones different and I'm sure it's worked for somebody as the myth had to come from somewhere! Hope it works for you! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Pineapple can help induce labor, but I think you have to eat 7 of them or so for it to be effective (if I'm remembering correctly) |

My DH has just informed me that if its not ripe enough it can have to much citric acid, hence your mouth feeling that way lol |
