Massage Chairs

My wife is 11 weeks pregnant, and has had a lot of tension and stress, and we wanted to know if massage chairs are beneficial to use or if they are harmful to the pregnancy.

Thanks,

Jay

massage chairs shouldn't be harmful.

I received a massage insert (one of those cushion things you put in a chair and plug up) that massages when I was preggo.  I read the insert that came with it and it said NOT to use if pregnant.  I think it had something to do with the magnetic waves or something.  Read the package insert and see what it says.  Like I said, the one I had specifically said not to use while pregnant.

Same here, John bought me one for Christmas one year and when I became pregnant I was told not only by the information that came with it, but also by my doctor, that they are not to be used by pregnant women. One of the big concerns was the constant vibration and the possibility (remote) that it could cause the placenta to seperate from the uterus.

Warm baths, moist heat and a nice back rub should really help her back.

I am going to be 4 months pregnant this Thrusday, I am wondering if it is normal for my Placenta to seperate from my uterus? This is the second pregnancy that i have had this happenin! I got pregnant again, and i  had a little bit of problems with my daughter but i had her at 8 months, I am goin on my 4th pregnancy n with my second pregnancy which was with my son he was born 3 months earlier n i was in the hosptial for 2 weeks before i had him because i was bleeding and i couldnt get it to stop! I am wondering what my chances of this little one is gonna be to making it and beening able to go full termer with him. The bleeding has not stoped yet and when it does it will stop for maybe 2 weeks and then come back twice as worse than it was before

I would really like to know what is goin on and what the chances of my baby is gonna be if he will make it or no?
