Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
Welcome to HCM.
First of all,I would like to clarify that pineapple is 100% safe during pregnancy.
Pineapple is a very good source of fibers with vitamin B1, B6 and B12.
Its fiber content helps to prevent constipation which is very common in pregnancy.
Also,Pineapple is very rich source of vitamin c and minerals.
As some women think that it is having bad effect or it can affect the pregnancy but its a wrong belief.
So,you can take pineapple or rava XXXXXXX (which contains pineapple) without fear.It will not have any hazardous effect on your baby.
Hope this will clear your doubt.
