  • There are lots of myths pineapple being one of them. Castor oil is another. I think when baby is ready to arrive that’s when it happens. Otherwise you are just wasting your time.

  • Definitely just an old wives tale.

  • It didn’t work for me! I think they are all ‘wive’s tales” baby will come, when baby is ready!

  • Not sure about pineapples, but my midwife advised me to eat papaya during the last days before my due date. I don’t think it helped though. :-)

  • I have no idea. Why are you asking? Why can’t women just be patient and wait for it to happen naturally
