(slightly silly?) question about sweet&sour sauce with pineapple...

[kristinaxo]

I've read a lot that your not supposed to eat pineappple during pregnancy and I had a quorn sweet and sour with rice tonight, I used uncle ben's oriental sweet n sour sauce that you get in jars from all supermarkets and now I'm worrying because it had pineapple and stuff in it I'm probably overeacting but has anyone else heard about this? I'm nearly 25 weeks x

I've heard this, but you'd have to eat about 7 fresh pineapples for it to have any real effect so don't worry

As any overdue and desperate woman will tell you... pineapples are very unlikely to do anything... and if they did you'd have to eat an extremely large quantity first. Pretty much every friend of mine that as gone overdue has munched pineapple until they were sick of the sight of them in the hope of inducing labour... and...

NADA! Lol xx

You have to eat ALOT (and I mean ALOT) of pineapple to induce labor so you have nothing to worry about. They say eating pineapple is GOOD for you while pregnant!
