Laptop?


Hiya ..

I was wondering if placing the laptop on 2 pillows on my lap does any harm to the baby due to the radiations and stuff?


I'm force to work on it daily at home as I'm doing my project

hmm I dont know, but you shouldn't use it on your lap anyways... Pillows can cause the laptop to overheat.

I think the heat of the laptop could cause damage to the baby. I dont think that they have any radiation though haha.

It just gets hot. There's no radiation or anything. Putting it on pillows wouldn't make it get hotter because it's just the same as putting it on any surface, lap, table, etc. I've used mine loads x

Radiation? What sort of laptop are you using? One with a nuclear powered core?!!!

Seriously though hun, you should have no problems with the laptop affecting the baby, apart from the heat as the others have said. But, saying that, I'm sitting with my laptop now, and it's .... erm.... on my lap! It's actually nowhere near my tummy.
