Many expectant mothers wonder about EMF exposure during pregnancy. While research is ongoing, here's what we know and practical steps you can take for peace of mind.
What Is EMF?
Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are produced by all electronic devices — phones, laptops, WiFi routers, and power lines. We're surrounded by them daily.
What Does the Research Say?
Current scientific consensus is that everyday EMF levels from consumer electronics are within safety guidelines. However, some studies have explored potential effects of prolonged, close-proximity exposure, and many expectant mothers prefer to take a precautionary approach.
