Answer to Question #6083 Submitted to "Ask the Experts"Category: Cell Phones The following question was answered by an expert in the appropriate field: Q
Does cell phone vibration on your stomach during pregnancy affect the baby? A
A cell phone emits electromagnetic radiation of various frequencies
at very low intensity and would not affect the development of a fetus
whose mother placed the cell phone on her abdomen during her pregnancy.
The mother's reproductive and developmental risk for her growing embryo
would not be altered by these exposures. If you are healthy, young, and
have no reproductive problems or family history of reproductive or
developmental problems, your risk for birth defects is 3% and for
miscarriage, 15%. These are background risks with which every woman
begins her pregnancy. Neither you nor I can change these risks. Good
luck with your pregnancy.
