I've read that the radiation is harmful to the baby. Don't put the phone directly on your belly or stand directly in front of a microwave. Minus well be safe than sorry.

? That seems a bit crazy. We use our phones 24/7 and have  not developed cancer. Cant speak for everyone because i suppose it could be possible. But never herd of an actual case.
