Because for me it is too acidic and seems to give me heartburn easily. While pregnant it is easy to get heartburn a lot so that is probably why people avoid it. But I do like to have fresh pineapple smoothies.
Pineapple Smoothie
1 1/2-2 cups freshly sliced pineapple
1/2 litre of Sprite
1/3 cup of Sugar
2 cups of Ice (grinded)
Add everything in the blender and blend on a high setting until it is smoothe. Drink your smoothie. It's really great!

There is no scientific evidence to support this belief that pregnant women should avoid papaya and pineapple. But since these fruits are rich in enzymes many believes this may cause abortion. Raw pineapple is used for making meat easy to be melted, maybe that's the reason. Large doses may cause uterine contractions, miscarriage, vomiting, diarrhea, skin rash, very heavy menstrual periods. Unripe pineapple is poisonous, causing excessive diarrhea.

I only had 2 cravings during my pregnancy.... cereal and pineapple juice (or any very sweet juice), but Pineapple was my favourite.
I ate more cereal in those 10 months than I had eaten in my whole life I think. ;0)

I eat it--I love pineapples--
but the acidity in can make for nasty heartburn, especially in the last trimester.
did you hear from someone that you werent supposed to eat it while pregnant?
just in case-ALL fruit is great for you and baby during pregnancy.

hmm... Maybe they dont like it while they are pregnant. You can develop a true hate for normally favorite foods while pregnant. Also...the acid in it can make for some NASTY heartburn. I loved it while I was pregnant but..everytime I ate it I knew I was gonna have some heartburn. Some people just try to avoid the foods that make them uncomfortable.

why should they eat pineapple? it has no particular benefits above and beyond anything else, maybe lots of them are eating pineapple. who knows, i doubt anyone even thinks about it.
