I've heard that as long as it's on your lap it's not a problem. The heat on your abdomen would make it uncomfortable for baby if you place it there. ( I can't see how that would be comfortable anyway.) Also the levels of radiation are far too low to cause any problems.

the only thing i heard about laptops doing any harm in people's lap is for men because the heat can bother their sperm. Other than that, i haven't seen or heard of any other mishaps.
