No More Papayas!
Did you know that eating unripe papayas is a no-no during pregnancy?
Hell if I know it's a myth, but according to the BabyCenter Medical Advisory Board, "an unripe or even a semi-ripe papaya is rich in concentrated latex and research indicates that it may trigger uterine contractions."
Yikes! No more Vietnamese papaya salads for me.
