Do you think it's bad to eat more than one banana a day whilst pregnant?

Haha why would it be bad?

It would have been bad for me. The smell of bananas makes me want to puke.

They are quite high in potassium, so if you have a lot of stress in your life they're apparently not great but other than that I've never seen anything advising against it in pregnancy.

Kate- as I was wondering about the potassium.
Thanks very little :)

Lots of bananas can contribute to constipation aswell, so maybe best to moderate them if you are suffering in that area!
