Mobile phones have many advantages in terms of modern technology and easy communications. However, studies do prove that mobile phones can not only be hazardous to your health and sleep but also to your unborn baby. Yes, this article is especially for pregnant women.
While speaking about ladies, we generally talk about their talkative nature and non-stop gossips. So, now it’s the time to divert their habit into something other than talking on the mobile phone. This will help them maintain peace and at the same time deliver a health baby.
A new study has been conducted by Denmark-based UCLA and Aarhus University doctors that provides suggestions to the to-be-moms about reducing the risk of the baby’s health. The research makes it clear that pregnant mothers, who are constantly talking on the phone, are likely to put their to-be-child on a high risk. The unborn could develop emotional and psychological disorders, even before going to kindergarten. In prior studies, the side-effects of long conversations on the phone are stated as “not much lower than the risk to children’s health from tobacco or alcohol”.
In order to carry forward the study, doctors examined 13,159 women who had their children in the late 1990s. It was noticed that the use of mobile phones 2-3 times a day leads to behavioral disorders. According to one more finding, the children, who are aged below 7 and are exploited by mobile phones, have 80% more chances of suffering from hyperactivity and emotional difficulties, provided that even their mothers used the mobiles while pregnancy.
An increase in mobile phone usage would also raise the risk of having troubled relationships because of unhealthy psychology by 54% even before the schooling. It is also believed that the disorders can be more serious than the teens and youngsters who haven’t been seen on the phones for most of the time.
Doctors calm the ladies by saying that there is nothing to panic about. The reason is that “this study in its current form fails to link a direct cause and effect between cell phone use in learning disabilities in children. What you have in the study is an epidemomology survey where the use of cell phones seem to be more frequent in women whose children have learning disabilities,”
The contradictory statement was also found that mentioned, “There is still no data available yet that has measured the radiation exposure to the actual fetus from the cell phone,” noted Alvarez. One thing can be confidently said that mobile phones have the ability to change the levels of melatonin, a sleep-controlling hormone which is later passed on from mothers to the fetus through placenta.
Now, to-be-mothers please think of your unborn and keep safe distance between you and your mobile phones.
