Tips to Reduce Exposure
It's easy to do!
• Keep your cell phone away from your body. Never hold it against your head or carry it in a pocket or bra.
• Reduce the amount of time talking on your cell phone. Texting is safer than talking.
• Keep your wireless laptop or tablet away from your body. Never rest a wireless device on your abdomen.
• Avoid making calls when the signal is weak as this causes cell phones to boost RF transmission power.
• Get a corded landline and talk safely for hours! Cordless or DECT phones have similar radiation risks as cell phones.
• Don't sleep close to a router or where a smart meter has been installed on the other side of a wall. Turn off routers at night.
​
• Use technology safely. Connect to the internet using wired (Ethernet) cables.
The Joint Statement
More than four hundred physicians, scientists and public health professionals from around the world have joined together to express their concern about the risk that wireless radiation poses to pregnancy and to urge pregnant women to limit their exposures.

"Having worked at the National Academy of Sciences for 10 years I thought there could be no problem with wireless radiation. Because if there were, I would know about it and so would all my colleagues. Well, I was completely wrong."

"The fetus is perhaps the most vulnerable to these types of environmental insults. When the brain is just forming, when all of the organ systems are just beginning to develop, that's when we are perhaps at our most vulnerable stage."

"When a baby is developing there are a hundred billion nerve cells in the body, all bridging connections, even in the first few months of pregnancy. Disruption of those earliest signals can have serious implications for later life."
