I have a question my mother in law just said I needed to be careful having my phone near my stomach?? Is if really that much radiation?? I'm in the medical field and we just laugh at all the new reasons ppl are coming up with on cell phones and radiation... Do I really have anything to worry about??

You will get more radiation with a day in the sun.

Educate yourself before encouraging a pregnant woman to endanger her unborn child. Yours is the worst kind of ignorance.

Thank you for the additional info AvieBreanne! I didn't know that 4G was worse.

My husband actually just got on to me a coupe of hours ago because I wasn't thinking and had my phone too close to my stomach. Better safe than sorry. I don't think it was a stupid comment at all. It makes since. Look it up girl!

YES!! Cell phones to put off radiation there are record numbers of brain tumors by the ears caused by cell phone radiation. I have a friend going through chemo right now because she has sarcoma in her right but check, which is the same pocket she aways puts her phone in, and her Dr told her it is highly possible that's what it's from..4G puts off the most radiation. They say to keep you're phone at least 5-6 inches away from you at all times!
