Pregnant? Put down the phone! Studies show that cell phone usage while pregnant can potentially harm your child. Using it as few as 2 or 3 times a day can increase the chances that your child could have hyperactivity or other emotional problems. On top of that, letting children under seven use cell phones can cause problems for them as well.

Researchers have not advised pregnant women to stop using them altogether, but until further research is completed moderation is a good idea. So, if you want to have a one hour chat to your best friend, do it from a land line!

More worries for pregnant gals. Wait a minute - this one is telling you NOT to worry… studies show that women who are stressed while pregnant may give birth to baby’s predisposed to allergies and asthma. So, they are considering stress as a “social pollutant” that when “breathed into the body” it can influence the immune system.

Well, with all these warnings about what a pregnant woman can not or should not do these days, no wonder they are stressed!

Don’t fret about those plastic baby bottles. At least that is what the FDA is saying. They do not see it necessary to tell consumers to stop using these products. But some groups are crying foul. They think the government is not concerned enough about the dangers, and are pressuring them to ban any children’s products with the potentially harmful chemical. So I guess the jury is still out, continue to use your best mommy judgment.

Add the “plastic or glass” choice to the ever growing list of things for pregnant women to worry about!
