Anyone eat the pineapple deal after Ovulation?

We triggered on Tuesday and today is the big ovulation day!  Wish us luck!  Just wondering if any of you ate the pineapple?  Just curious if this is an old wives tale or somewhat true?

After 3 years of unexplained infertilty, trying, hoping, and lots of peeing on myself.....Clomid + Ovidrel + IUI on 7/27/09 + Best RE ever = BFP on 8/11/09
9/23 Missed m/c at 10.5 weeks. Very thankful for the time we had together.

12/11/09 - 2nd HSG in under a year - all clear! Bring on the vag cam....

One lonely follie + Clomid + Ovidrel + jacked up IUI on 12/31/09 (thanks to the nurse who wrote down the wrong protocol ) = 1/14/10 BFN - go figure.


150mg Clomid + Ovidrel + IUI on 2/12 - beta 2/26 = BFN Again.....

Last IUI before a nice break...Cmon Luck of the Irish!
Trigger 3/15, IUI 3/17...

Supposedly you should eat pineapple after ovulation to help with implantation

It's the core - you can also take the same active ingredient in pills at GNC. I did it with my first IVF but not my second and got BFPs both with and without it.

Good luck!
