I have just read up on eating pineapple to induce natural labour and you have to eat at least 7 pineapples for it to work :eek: i have just eaten 1 small one and that was enough for me, god 7 pineapples you would have the squits for a month lmao :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
 
the day my waters went I ate two trays of tesco pineapple :rotfl: :rotfl:

I ended up with loads of mouth ulcers :rotfl:
 
7 is a lot of pineapple.

I ate half a pineapple and my waters went the next day so there is hope im sure it worked for me.
 
7 - oh no I get bad enough heartburn with just a few chunks!!!
 
Crap and there was me thinking the small tin i just ate may do the trick :roll:
 
Does it not have to be fresh pineapple??

I eat quite a lot anyway so I don't think it would have any effect on me? I quite fancy some now actually!

it will only work if the baby is ready to come. you'll just get the shits if its not.
 
yup it has to be fresh pineapple as it looses the enzymes when its tinned or juiced apparently
 
I just ate some - not because i want it to do anything - I just fancied some!!
Bump is definitely reacting but hopefully not in a major way!! i'm not ready for it to come out yet... although before christmas would be nice..... hmmm
 
i ate half a large pineapple the night before i went into labour so i think it worked for me.
 
mm sounds quite convincing! maybe I will have to try it!!

this boy seems too snug and settled in my belly atm! :lol: I wonder if he's ever coming out??
 
i might give it another go tomorrow then :?
 
my midwife said three would be enough!! maybe it depends on the size of the fruit!!!!!!
I'm not overly keen on the little spikers though!
