Pineapple

Does anyone know if pineapple makes heartburn worse?

I am 37+3 and suffer from pretty bad heartburn. I've just opened a little tin of sliced pineapple and could hardly eat any. Is this causing the heartburn or am I just plain unlucky?

Thanks

Doesn't fresh pineapple help bring on labour? (In old wives tales, not sure how true it is!)

I ate 3 whole fresh pineapples in 2 days and did absolutely nothing. It was advised to try by my m/w along with spicy foods, long walk and sex.
Not sure if it will make heartburn worse

You need to eat 7 fresh ones in a day for it to have any affect. I love pineapple but couldn't manage 7.

probably would make heartburn worse as is very acidic.

lol 7 a day. Blimey, no wonder my cheese and pineapple pizza didn't cut the mustard when I tried to get labour started

Wow. She didn't say anything about 7!! If I'd known that I think I'd have given it a go

I think I'd have to be really desperate to try it.

I wish he'd hurry up so I can have some pineapple without feeling like I am dying.
